Systems and methods for using multiple processors for imaging

Abstract

An imaging system that uses multiple processors to process a series of print jobs to display a series of page images can include an input device that inputs an object, a controller that controls the multiple processors to process the image based on the inputted object to create the print job and an interface device that produces a plurality of worker threads that correspond to the print job. Moreover, the system can include a memory for storing the print job and an output device that displays the image. The controller controls the multiple processors and the interface device to allow the plurality of worker threads to simultaneously process independent portions of the print job even when regions associated with the image overlap.
