Abstract
A scanner image-processing unit includes a scanner-property adjusting unit that converts image data from a scanner unit into normalized image data and a first image processing unit that performs a first image processing on the normalized image data to generate output image data. If a controller image-processing unit that performs a second image processing on the image data from the scanner unit is connected, a configuration control unit disables an operation of the first image processing unit and controls the controller image-processing unit to perform the second image processing on the normalized image data to generate the output image data.
Claims19
A controller unit that controls an image processing apparatus that includes a scanner unit that reads an image of an original and outputs image data, the controller unit comprising:
- a scanner image-processing unit including
- a scanner-property adjusting unit that converts the image data from the scanner unit into normalized image data, and
- a first image processing unit that performs a first image processing on the normalized image data to generate first output image data;
- and
- a configuration control unit that, if a controller image-processing unit that performs a second image processing on the image data from the scanner unit is connected, disables an operation of the first image processing unit and controls the controller image-processing unit to perform the second image processing on the normalized image data to generate second output image data.
A method of controlling an image processing apparatus that includes a scanner unit that reads an image of an original and outputs image data, the method comprising:
- converting the image data from the scanner unit into normalized image data;
- first image processing including performing a first image processing on the normalized image data to generate first output image data;
- and
- configuration controlling including
- disabling, if a controller image-processing unit that performs a second image processing on the image data from the scanner unit is connected, an operation of the first image processing, and controlling the controller image-processing unit to perform the second image processing on the normalized image data to generate second output image data.
A computer-readable recording medium that stores there in a computer program for controlling an image processing apparatus that includes a scanner unit that reads an image of an original and outputs image data, the computer program when executed causing a computer to execute:
- converting the image data from the scanner unit into normalized image data;
- first image processing including performing a first image processing on the normalized image data to generate first output image data;
- and
- configuration controlling including
- disabling, if a controller image-processing unit that performs a second image processing on the image data from the scanner unit is connected, an operation of the first image processing, and controlling the controller image-processing unit to perform the second image processing on the normalized image data to generate second output image data.
