Abstract
A document processing apparatus includes a tray on which a document is to be placed; a conveyer to convey the document from the tray; a sensor to read an image of the document while the document is conveyed by the conveyer; and circuitry to acquire processing information including at least one of a setting for conveying the document by the conveyer and a setting for reading the document by the sensor and estimate, based on the processing information, sound pleasantness which a person feels for sound produced in conveyance or reading of the document in a case where the document is conveyed or read.
Claims13
A document processing apparatus comprising:
- a tray on which a document is to be placed;
- a conveyer to convey the document from the tray;
- a sensor to read an image of the document while the document is conveyed;
- and
- circuitry configured to
- acquire processing information including at least one of a setting for conveying the document by the conveyer and a setting for reading the document by the sensor;
- and
- estimate, based on the processing information, sound pleasantness which a person feels for sound produced in conveyance or reading of the document in a case where the document is conveyed or read.
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- connect to a document processing apparatus via an interface to enable communication with the document processing apparatus, the document processing apparatus including a tray on which a document is to be placed, a conveyer to convey the document from the tray, and a sensor to read an image on the document while the document is conveyed by the conveyer;
- acquire processing information including at least one of a setting for conveying the document by the conveyer and a setting for reading the document by the sensor;
- and
- estimate, based on the processing information, sound pleasantness which a person feels for sound produced in conveyance or reading of the document in a case where the document is conveyed or read.
An image forming system comprising:
- a document processing apparatus;
- and
- an image forming apparatus,
- the document processing apparatus including:
- a tray on which a document is to be placed;
- a conveyer to convey the document from the tray;
- a sensor to read an image of the document while the document is conveyed by the conveyer;
- and
- an interface to connect to the image forming apparatus to enable communication with the image forming apparatus, and
- the image forming apparatus including a driving mechanism configured to perform driving to form an image, wherein
- the document processing apparatus further includes circuitry configured to:
- acquire processing information including at least one of a setting for conveying the document by the conveyer and a setting for reading the document by the sensor;
- estimate, based on the processing information, sound pleasantness which a person feels for sound produced in conveyance or reading of the document in a case where the document is conveyed or read;
- and
- transmit information based on an estimation result of the sound pleasantness to the image forming apparatus, and
- the image forming apparatus changes control of the driving mechanism, based on the received information.
