Abstract: In a multi-stage scanning method for increasing a scanning speed and enhancing an image quality, an optical module is firstly moved from a start position to a forward-internal position in a forward direction, and then enabled to scan a first portion of a document to obtain a first image until the module reaches a forward-boundary position. Then, the module is moved from the forward-boundary position to an end position in the forward direction. Next, the module is moved from the end position to a reverse-internal position in a reverse direction, and then enabled to scan a second portion of the document to obtain a second image until the module reaches a reverse-boundary position. Then, the module is moved from the reverse-boundary position to the start position, in the reverse direction, and then stopped. Finally, the first and second images are stitched into a complete image.

Abstract: In an image input scanner, as would be found in a digital copier, images are recorded from a first side of each of a plurality of sheets in a set by a first image scanning module (ISM-1) and from a second side of each of a plurality of sheets in a set by a second image scanning module (ISM-2) in standard operation. If it is determined that ISM-1 is not operating in a satisfactory manner, the user is advised through a user interface to record the second side images with ISM-2, and then place the set of sheets in a predetermined orientation in the scanner so that ISM-2 can record the first side images as well.

Abstract: In a printer for forming an image by means of main scanning as a reciprocating operation of a recording head and sub-scanning as an operation for feeding a recording medium, an image recording position is automatically and accurately corrected in a main scanning direction and a sub-scanning direction. To achieve this, a reference image extending in the sub-scanning direction is first formed at a first predetermined position on the recording medium during a forward operation of the recording head, while particular images are formed at second predetermined positions on the recording medium during the reciprocating main-scanning operations of the recording head, the first predetermined position being different from that of the second predetermined positions. Next, the reference image and each of the images formed during each of the reciprocating operations are read to measure the interval in the main scanning direction between the reference image and each of the images formed on the recording medium during the reciprocating operations in order to calculate the amount of offset of each image recording position during the reciprocating main-scanning operations, thereby correcting data on the recording images or timings for recording on the recording medium.

Abstract: The invention provides an image forming method and apparatus capable of forming an image with a desired shape at a correct position on a recording medium having expansion and contraction properties. Boundary lines formed on the recording medium being conveyed are detected by a sensor. Distortion of the recording medium is evaluated on the basis of the detected boundary lines. Image data is corrected in accordance with the result of the evaluation and an image is formed in accordance with the corrected image data. In the above process, image data within the respective areas surrounded by the boundary lines is deformed such that the image is printed at a correct location even when the recording medium has distortion due to expansion/contraction.
