    Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes: a reader that performs first reading of reading a document and second reading of reading a portion read through a first color in the first reading through a second color using an area sensor having a Bayer arrangement color filter; a generator that generates first image data represented by a plurality of adjacent pixels with a read value obtained through one Bayer arrangement in the first reading as one pixel, and generates second image data using, for each reading position, a value read through the first color in the first reading and a value read through the second color in the second reading; and a selector that selects one of the first image data or the second image data.

    Abstract: A card scanner includes a card support mechanism for receiving a card and a first camera. A first light source is mounted so that a first image of a first side of the card captured by the first camera reflects to the first camera so that a first bright region created by light reflected by the first side of the card from the first light source is within a first location on the first side of the card. A second light source is mounted so that a second image of the first side of the card captured by the first camera reflects to the first camera so that a second bright region created by light reflected by the first side of the card from the second light source is within a second location on the first side of the card, wherein the first location and the second location do not overlap. An image processor combines the first image of the first side of the card with the second image of the first side of the card to produce a first combined image, the first bright region and the second bright region being filtered from the first combined image by the image processor.

    Abstract: An apparatus body of an image reading apparatus is turnably provided to a body supporting portion. The apparatus body is turned so as to be switchable between a first posture and a second posture that forms an angle between a reading transportation path and a mounting surface being smaller than the corresponding angle formed in the first posture. A transportation path switching unit couples the reading transportation path to a reverse transportation path when the apparatus body takes the first posture, and couples the reading transportation path to a non-reverse transportation path when the apparatus body takes the second posture.

    Abstract: A control device includes a processor configured to: instruct a document reading apparatus that reads a document at a first speed to read image data of the document; and control an image output device that outputs an image to a medium at a second speed higher than the first speed such that the image data of the document starts to be outputted to the medium after reading is started and after a wait time depending on a position at which an additional image starts to be composited when it is determined that reading is finished has elapsed.
