In addition, the character "/" herein generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are an "or" relationship.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of an image forming system according to an embodiment of the present application is provided. As shown in fig. 1, the image forming system includes an image forming apparatus 100 and a terminal device 200, the image forming apparatus 100 and the terminal device 200 being interconnected by a wired or wireless communication network for information transmission.

It should be understood that the illustration in fig. 1 is only an exemplary illustration and should not be taken as a limitation on the scope of the present application. For example, the image forming apparatus 100 includes, but is not limited to, a printer, a copier, a facsimile machine, a scanner, and a multi-functional peripheral that performs the above functions in a single device; terminal device 200 includes, but is not limited to, a cell phone, personal computer (personal computer, PC), personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), smart watch, netbook, etc.

When the communication network is a local area network, the communication network may be a wifi hotspot network, a wifi P2P network, a bluetooth network, a zigbee network, or a near field communication (near field communication, NFC) network, for example. When the communication network is a wide area network, the communication network may be, for example, a third generation mobile communication technology (3 rd-generation wireless telephone technology, 3G) network, a fourth generation mobile communication technology (the 4th generation mobile communication technology, 4G) network, a fifth generation mobile communication technology (5 th-generation mobile communication technology, 5G) network, a future evolution public land mobile network (public land mobile network, PLMN) or the internet, etc.
In order to save consumables, an image forming apparatus is generally provided with an ink saving mode. In the ink-saving mode, the image output by the image forming device can save the consumption of carbon powder or ink. However, in the conventional ink-saving mode, the image forming apparatus outputs a large amount of image loss information, and the image quality is poor.
Based on this, the embodiment of the application provides an image processing method, which can ensure that a text area is clear and continuous in a mode of saving ink, and a picture area can adjust brightness and darkness, has layering sense and improves the quality of printed images. The following detailed description refers to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of an image processing method according to an embodiment of the present application is provided. The method is applicable to the terminal device or the image forming apparatus shown in fig. 1, and as shown in fig. 2, it mainly includes the following steps.
Step S201: and acquiring image data to be processed, wherein the image data to be processed is the image data subjected to halftone processing.
Halftone refers to a tone whose tone value is represented by a dot size or a density. Corresponding to the halftone is a continuous tone. Continuous tone images are generally defined as images in which the tone change from light to dark or from light to dark is formed by the density of particles of the imaging substance per unit area, and the tone and shade are steplessly changed, such as photo film, photo, various drawings; halftone is usually represented by the size of dots in a specially processed print from light to dark or from light to dark, and is called a halftone image because the dots are spatially separated by a certain distance and are discretely distributed, and because the number of steps of screening is always limited, no stepless change is realized in the level change of the image as in continuous tone image.
The present application implements image processing based on halftone image data.
Step S202: dividing the image data to be processed into a first field area and a second field area, wherein the black point number of the first field area is different from the black point number of the second field area.
In some possible implementations, the image data to be processed is segmented in units of a template matrix. For example, the template matrix may be 5*5 in size, and the image data to be processed may be divided into a plurality of divided areas 5*5 in size. Of course, those skilled in the art may set other template matrices according to actual needs, for example, 3×3,8×8,4×6, etc., which are not limited in this embodiment.
After the image data to be processed is divided into a plurality of divided areas, carrying out black and white point statistics on the image data to be processed by taking the divided areas as units, and obtaining a black and white point statistics result corresponding to each divided area. For example, the image data to be processed is divided into a plurality of divided regions of 5*5 size, and black and white point count is performed for each divided region of 5*5 size.
After the black-and-white point statistical result is obtained, dividing the image data to be processed into a first field area and a second field area according to the black-and-white point statistical result corresponding to each divided area. Specifically, a black point number duty ratio threshold may be set, and a divided area in which the black point number duty ratio is greater than or equal to a preset black point number duty ratio threshold is divided into a first field area; dividing the divided area with the black point number duty ratio smaller than the preset black point number duty ratio threshold into a second field area.
In some possible implementations, the number of black points is set to 100% of the threshold, that is, when all of the divided areas are black points, the divided areas are determined to be the first field areas; otherwise, determining the segmentation area as a second field area. At this time, the first field area may be referred to as a 100% field area; the second field area may be referred to as a non-100% field area. Taking a 5*5 divided area as an example, when the number of the counted black points reaches 5*5, determining the divided area as a first field area; otherwise, determining the segmentation area as a second field area.
Of course, those skilled in the art may set other black dot count duty ratio thresholds, which are not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.
In the embodiment of the present application, different data processing manners are adopted for the first field area and the second field area, and the following description is given respectively.
Step S203: and carrying out pixel value replacement processing on the first real area through a replacement matrix, wherein the replacement matrix is the replacement matrix in the current ink-saving mode setting.
Specifically, the pixel value replacement processing is performed on each of the divided areas in the first real area by the replacement matrix, that is, the pixel value of the divided area is replaced with the pixel value of the replacement matrix in the current ink saving mode setting. The size of the replacement matrix matches the size of the segmented region, for example, when the size of the segmented region is 5*5, the size of the replacement matrix is 5*5 as well. That is, the divided areas have a one-to-one mapping relationship with the pixel points of the replacement matrix.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of replacing pixel values of a first real area is provided in an embodiment of the present application. In fig. 3a segmented area of the first field area is shown, the segmented area having a size of 5*5, the first field area being a 100% field area. For convenience of explanation, the coordinate values of the replacement matrix are represented by (i, j), wherein i is equal to or more than 1 and equal to or less than 5, and j is equal to or more than 1 and equal to or less than 5.
As shown in fig. 3A, in the divided area of 5*5, the original pixel values are all 0.
As shown in fig. 3B, in the replacement matrix of 5*5, the pixel values of the coordinate points (2, 2), (2, 4), (4, 2), (4, 4) are 255, and the pixel values of the other coordinate points are 0.
The original pixel values of the divided regions shown in fig. 3A are replaced with the pixel values of the replacement matrix, and after the replacement, the pixel values of the divided regions are shown in fig. 3C, the pixel values of the coordinate points (2, 2), (2, 4), (4, 2), (4, 4) are 255, and the pixel values of the other coordinate points are 0.
It should be understood that the illustration in fig. 3 is merely an exemplary illustration of an embodiment of the present application and should not be taken as a limitation on the scope of the present application.
Step S204: and performing AND or processing on the second real area through a mask matrix, wherein the mask matrix is the mask matrix set in the current ink-saving mode.
Specifically, each of the divided regions in the second real region is subjected to and or processing through a mask matrix, and the size of the mask matrix is matched with that of the divided region. For example, when the size of the divided area is 5*5, the size of the mask matrix is 5*5 as well. That is to say, the divided areas have a one-to-one mapping relationship with the pixel points of the mask matrix.
In some possible implementations, the and or processing includes: setting the pixel value of a first position in the partitioned area to 255, and keeping the pixel value of a second position in the partitioned area unchanged; the first position corresponds to a position with a parameter of 1 in the mask matrix, and the second position corresponds to a position with a parameter of 0 in the mask matrix.
Referring to fig. 4, a second field area and/or process schematic is provided in an embodiment of the present application. In fig. 4, a segmented area of the second field area is shown, the segmented area having a size of 5*5, the second field area being a non-100% field area. For convenience of explanation, the coordinate values of the replacement matrix are represented by (i, j), wherein i is equal to or more than 1 and equal to or less than 5, and j is equal to or more than 1 and equal to or less than 5.
As shown in fig. 4A, in the divided region of 5*5, the pixel values of the coordinate points (2, 2), (4, 4) are 255, and the pixel values of the other coordinate points are 0.
As shown in fig. 4B, in the mask matrix of 5*5, the parameters of the coordinate points (2, 2), (2, 4), (3, 3) (4, 2), (4, 4) are 1, and the parameters of the other coordinate points are 0.
The divided regions shown in fig. 4A are processed by the mask matrix shown in fig. 4B. Specifically, the pixel value of the first position in the divided area, which corresponds to the position in the mask matrix where the parameter is 1, is set to 255, that is, the pixel value of the coordinate points (2, 2), (2, 4), (3, 3) (4, 2), (4, 4) in the divided area is set to 255; the pixel values at the second locations in the partitioned area remain unchanged, the first locations corresponding to locations in the mask matrix where the parameter is 0. The processed divided regions are shown in fig. 4C.
It is understood that in a black-and-white image, 0 represents pure black and 255 represents white. After the processing, the ink-saving effect can be achieved, the brightness of the image can be adjusted, the characters can be kept clear, and the layering sense of the image can be improved.
Of course, the above image processing method may also process color images, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
By adopting the image processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, clear and continuous line breaking of the text area can be ensured under the ink-saving mode, the brightness of the picture area can be adjusted, the layering sense is provided, and the quality of the printed image is improved.
