Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: a pipeline processor that inputs image data shifted 1 pixel at a time in a sub-scanning direction; a detector that inputs and holds each pixel of the image data, compares each pixel value of the held plurality of pixels, and detects an edge of a front end or a rear end of an object; a counter that counts a number of pixels that each pixel of the image data shifted in the sub-scanning direction; a distance coefficient determiner that uses a count value of the counter to determine a distance coefficient; a correction value calculator that calculates a correction value; a corrector that adds the correction value of each pixel to the pixel value of each pixel of the image data; and a position where the correction value is added is a position shifted at least N+1 pixels.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a retaining unit and an image display. The retaining unit retains image-formation-related information of an image forming apparatus that forms an image. The image display causes a display section of a portable terminal having the display section and an image capturing section to display an image for assisting with an operation of the image forming apparatus based on a captured image result of the image capturing section and the image-formation-related information retained in the retaining unit.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an image processor that performs error diffusion processing by applying an error diffusion matrix to multi-valued image data having pixels two-dimensionally arranged, so as to convert the multi-valued image data into binary image data. The binarization unit applies an error diffusion matrix in which the diffusion coefficient of a pixel diagonal to a focused-on pixel is greater than those of other pixels.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus comprises a sensor, a base, a clamping section and a limiting section. The sensor includes a hook having a claw section. The sensor is held on the base. The clamping section and the limiting section are arranged on the base. The claw section is clamped with the clamping section. The limiting section is elastically deformable when the sensor is mounted on the base. When the claw section is clamped with the clamping section, the limiting section faces the hook from the opposite side of the clamping section so as to limit the position of the hook.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus having a touch panel and capable of smoothly displaying an image even though the image forming apparatus has scarce hardware resources. The image forming apparatus includes an operation unit provided with a touch panel configured to display a screen sequentially shifted by an operation of a user, determines a type of operations such as a flick and a drag executed on the touch panel by the user, and displays a screen on the touch panel by shifting the screen by N-screens (N is an integer of two or more) if the operation is the flick while displaying a screen on the touch panel by shifting the screen by one screen if the operation is the drag.
