Abstract
An image forming apparatus including: a data input section to input document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data; an image forming section to form an image on a recording medium based on the document image data; an input section to input a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data; and a control section to control the image forming section so that images are formed by shifting only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data of the document image data on the recording medium while not shifting a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data of the document image data, based on the shift instruction inputted from the input section.
Claims11
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a data input section to input document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- an image forming section to form an image on a recording medium based on the document image data;
- an input section to input a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data;
- and
- a control section to control the image forming section so that images are formed by shifting only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data of the document image data on the recording medium while not shifting a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data of the document image data, based on the shift instruction inputted from the input section.
An image forming system comprising an image forming apparatus and an image forming control apparatus, wherein the image forming control apparatus comprises:
- a data generation section to generate document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- and
- a transmission section to transmit a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data, and the document image data to the image forming apparatus, wherein the image forming apparatus comprises:
- an image forming section to form an image on a recording medium;
- an input section to input the document image data and the shift instruction;
- and
- a control section to control the image forming section so that an image is formed by shifting only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data of the document image data on the recording medium while not shifting a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data of the document image data based on the shift instruction inputted from the input section.
An image forming system comprising an image forming apparatus and an image forming control apparatus, wherein the image forming control apparatus comprises:
- a data generation section to generate document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- and
- a transmission section to transmit a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data, and the document image data to the image forming apparatus, wherein the image forming apparatus comprises:
- an image forming section to form an image on a recording medium;
- an input section to input the document image data and the shift instruction;
- and
- a control section to control the image forming section so that an image is formed by independently setting a shift process of a body text image corresponding to the body text image data and a shift process of a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data and shifting the body text image on the recording medium.
An image forming system comprising an image forming apparatus and an image forming control apparatus, wherein the image forming control apparatus comprises:
- a data generation section to generate document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- an input section to input a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data;
- and
- an image processing section to process the document image data so that shifted is only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data of the document image data on the recording medium while not shifted is a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data of the document image data, based on the shift instruction, and
- a transmission section to transmit the document image data processed by the image processing section to the image forming apparatus, wherein the image forming apparatus comprises:
- a data input section to receive and input the document image data;
- and
- an image forming section to form an image on a recording medium based on the document image data inputted by the data input section.
A control program for controlling an image forming apparatus, the control program comprising the steps of:
- inputting a shift instruction to shift a print area of document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- and
- forming images so that shifted is only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data of the document image data on the recording medium while not shifted is a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data of the document image data, based on the shift instruction.
A control program to control an image forming control apparatus for transmitting document image data to an image forming apparatus, the control program comprising the steps of:
- generating document image data including cover sheet image data and body text image data;
- inputting a shift instruction for shifting a print area of the document image data;
- applying image processing to the document image data so that shifted is only a body text image corresponding to the body text image data on a recording medium based on the shift instruction while not shifted is a cover sheet image corresponding to the cover sheet image data;
- and
- transmitting the document image data, to which the processing is applied, onto the image forming apparatus.
