[ detailed description ] of the invention
For a better understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The image forming apparatus of the present application is briefly described as follows: the image forming apparatus refers to various apparatuses for executing an image forming job, which may be at least one of generation, printing, copying, scanning, and the like, and may also be used to receive and transmit image data, and may be, for example, an inkjet printer, a laser printer, an LED (Light Emitting Diode ) printer, a copier, a scanner, a multifunction peripheral (MFP, multi-Functional Peripheral) that performs the above functions in a single device, and the like;
The following profile applies to the graphics and firmware in this application:

still further include, but are not limited to, print engine firmware, drive motors, image forming units, etc.;
based on the foregoing description, most image forming apparatuses still execute a print job at a normal voltage under a low-voltage condition, resulting in an increase in false alarm probability, and even if the image forming apparatus has a low-voltage recognition capability, the low-voltage recognition is rough, affecting the user experience, thereby generating the teachings of the present application:
if the working voltage is lower than a first preset voltage, determining an alarm level corresponding to the working voltage, and determining a corresponding control strategy in the current working state according to the current working state of the image forming device and the determined alarm level; the control strategy comprises a firmware control strategy and an application control strategy; controlling the image forming apparatus to execute the determined control policy; each alarm level corresponds to one control strategy, different working states of the same alarm level correspond to different control strategies, and the first preset voltage is the working voltage of the image forming device in a normal state;
It is understood that the operating voltage herein refers to the operating voltage of the patterning device;
the low-voltage abnormal processing scheme formed by the engine processing and the data board processing of the corresponding level can be automatically executed for different alarm levels to realize accurate identification of low voltage.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a control method of an image forming apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application, where the control method includes:
s101: and if the working voltage is lower than the first preset voltage, determining an alarm grade corresponding to the working voltage.
In this embodiment of the present application, the first preset voltage is used to indicate a working voltage that the image forming apparatus can normally operate, without affecting the functions of performing scanning/printing/copying/faxing, and the like, and is also used to distinguish whether the image forming apparatus is in a low voltage state. Preferably, the first preset voltage is smaller than a standard operating voltage (or a rated operating voltage or a fixing operating voltage, etc.) of the image forming apparatus.
In some embodiments, the first preset voltage is specifically set according to different environments, for example, the first preset voltage set in the normal temperature environment is 160v,162v,165v, etc., and the first preset voltage set in the cold environment is lower than the first preset voltage set in the normal temperature environment, for example 158v,155v, etc.
Prior to step S101, the image forming apparatus previously constructs: and a first mapping relation between different preset voltages and alarm levels. The alarm level can be determined according to the first mapping relation after the working voltage of the image forming device is obtained.
The image forming apparatus setting the first mapping relation specifically includes:
dividing a voltage lower than a first preset voltage into three areas:
the second preset voltage and the first preset voltage) is a first area corresponding to the first alarm level;
third preset voltage, second preset voltage) is a second region corresponding to a second alarm level;
(0, a third preset voltage) is a third region corresponding to a third alarm level.
The third preset voltage is less than the second preset voltage and less than the first preset voltage. Wherein the third preset voltage is used for indicating a voltage which seriously affects the operation of the image forming apparatus, such as 130V. The second preset voltage is higher than the third preset voltage, e.g., 150V. It should be noted that, the setting of the third preset voltage and the second preset voltage is set according to different environments with the first preset voltage, which is not described herein.
Based on the first mapping relation, the working voltage of the image forming device is obtained, and then whether the working voltage is lower than a first preset voltage or not is judged, namely whether the image forming device is in a low-voltage state or not is judged.
If the working voltage is smaller than a first preset voltage, the image forming device is in a low voltage state, and an alarm level corresponding to the working voltage is determined according to the first mapping relation, which specifically comprises:
s1011, if the working voltage is smaller than the first preset voltage and not smaller than the second preset voltage, determining that the alarm level corresponding to the working voltage is a first alarm level;
s1012, if the working voltage is smaller than the second preset voltage and not smaller than the third preset voltage, determining that the alarm level corresponding to the working voltage is a second alarm level;
and S1013, if the working voltage is smaller than the third preset voltage, determining that the alarm level corresponding to the working voltage is a third alarm level.
The first alarm level, the second alarm level and the third alarm level are divided into a low-level alarm, a medium-level alarm and a high-level alarm according to alarm strength. The first alarm level (i.e. low-level alarm) is used for warning the user that the working voltage is unstable, so that the task is not required to be frequently implemented, but the firmware control does not influence the use of the equipment. The second alarm level (i.e., a middle-level alarm) is used to warn that the image forming apparatus is not fully operating, and can resume part of the equipment operation through an automatic restart strategy; the third warning level (i.e., high level warning) is used to warn that the image forming apparatus is hardly operational.
For example, if the standard operating voltage of the image forming apparatus is 170V, the first preset voltage is 160V, the second preset voltage is 150V, and the third preset voltage is 130V. Then, if the operating voltage is between 170V and 160V, the image forming apparatus is still in a normal state, not in a low voltage range; if the working voltage is between 160V and 150V, the image forming device is at a first alarm level; if the working voltage is between 150V and 130V, the working voltage is at the second alarm level, and if the working voltage is less than 130V, the working voltage is at the third alarm level.
S102: determining a corresponding control strategy under the current working state according to the current working state of the image forming device and the determined alarm level; the control strategies comprise a firmware control strategy and an application control strategy.
Prior to step S101, the image forming apparatus further includes: the second mapping relation of the working state, the alarm level and the control strategy can determine the control strategy which should be adopted by the alarm level determined by the image forming device under the corresponding working state through the first mapping relation and the second mapping relation. The control strategy is used for indicating the image forming device to release the current alarm level as far as possible to be operable so as to reduce the probability of low-voltage false alarm. The control policies include firmware control policies and application control policies. In the embodiment of the application, the firmware control policy is used for indicating a policy for controlling a firmware component in the image forming apparatus, and the application control policy is used for indicating a policy for controlling a panel or a display screen in the image forming apparatus or a client connected to the image forming apparatus.
It should be noted that, each alarm level corresponds to one control policy, that is, the control policy of each alarm level includes a firmware control policy and an application control policy. Different working states of the same alarm level correspond to different control strategies, that is, the control strategies corresponding to the same alarm level in different working states may be the same or different.
The operation state of the image forming apparatus is classified into a start-up state, i.e., a warm-up state, and an image forming state, i.e., a state in which a job is executed, including but not limited to scanning/printing/copying/faxing, etc. In the start-up state and in the image forming state, the control strategy adopted by the image forming apparatus is different.
The control strategies corresponding to the image forming device at different alarm levels are respectively shown in a table mode for the image forming device in an image forming state and a starting state.
TABLE 1
Table 1 is used to indicate firmware control policies and application control policies corresponding to different alert levels in an image forming state of an image forming apparatus. The image forming state may refer to one of printing, scanning, or facsimile jobs being performed by the image forming apparatus.
The present invention will be described taking an example in which an image forming apparatus is performing a print job.
In Table 1, at a first alarm level, the firmware control strategy includes: switching a printing speed of the image forming apparatus to a first speed lower than a preset image forming speed; increasing a preset paper interval of the image forming device to a first paper interval; the preset fixing temperature of the image forming apparatus is increased to a first fixing temperature. Illustratively, the first speed is adjusted to half the preset image forming speed, and the first paper pitch is adjusted to increase the preset paper pitch by 150mm; the first fixing temperature is adjusted to a preset fixing temperature increased by 10 °.
In some embodiments, the second speed is 1/2,2/3,3/4, etc. of the preset image forming speed.
Applying the control strategy includes: a low-level alert is prompted at the display interface. Illustratively, the user is prompted for a low pressure warning that does not frequently perform a print job. Wherein execution of the firmware control policy does not affect use of the device.
At the second alarm level, the firmware control strategy includes: if the target page of the current operation is not subjected to image formation, canceling the current operation; if the target page of the current job is executing image formation, stopping outputting the image signal of the target page to the image formation state, and canceling image formation of the rest page of the current job. Wherein the image forming page which is being executed and stops outputting the image signal of the target page to the image forming state is outputted in a blank page manner, that is, white paper is outputted. The target page refers to a page to be printed.
For example, the page to be printed is determined, if the page to be printed is not printed, the printing process of the page is cancelled, and if the page to be printed is executing printing, the output signal of the image unit is cut off, and at this time, the page to be printed is output as a blank page.
Applying the control strategy includes: a step of displaying a level warning in the display interface prompt and displaying a selection item for a user to confirm whether to control the image forming device to automatically restart after a first preset time; the printing function and the copying function of the image forming apparatus are disabled. I.e., the display interface may prompt a mid-level warning while displaying a restart option. The user can set whether to restart through the restart option, and if yes, restart the image forming apparatus after the first preset time. Wherein, the disabling means that the display interface cannot operate the disabling function. Of course, the disabling is not limited to the foregoing, but is also used to limit the terminal such as a PC side or a mobile terminal to issue a corresponding job function such as a print job or a copy job.
The restart option may be displayed as [ yes ] (or [ acknowledge ]) and [ no ] (or [ cancel ]) on the display interface. The restart option is used for the user to secondarily confirm whether to restart the image forming apparatus, so that the user can conveniently confirm again in the setting menu bar due to the fact that the abnormal automatic restart function is started by mistake.
In some embodiments, the first preset time may be 1 minute, or may be 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, or the like.
At a third alarm level, the firmware control strategy includes:
if the target page of the current operation is not subjected to image formation, canceling the current operation;
if the target page of the current job is executing image formation, stopping outputting the image signal of the target page to the image formation state, and canceling image formation of the rest page of the current job. Wherein the image forming page which is being executed and stops outputting the image signal of the target page to the image forming state is outputted in a blank page manner, that is, white paper is outputted.
Applying the control strategy includes: prompting a high-level warning on a display interface, and controlling the image forming device to restart automatically after a second preset time; other functions than the scanning function of the image forming apparatus are disabled. Wherein the high-level warning is used to indicate a serious fault, the anomaly information of which typically displays a fault code. In this embodiment of the present application, the number of times N of automatically controlling the restarting of the image forming apparatus may be preset by the user, and if not set by the user, the image forming apparatus is automatically restarted 1 time by default.
When the image forming apparatus is determined to be at the third alarm level, the image forming apparatus is automatically controlled to restart after the second preset time without selecting whether to start the automatic restart function by the user. The second preset time may be the same as the first preset time or may be different from the first preset time. The second preset time may be, for example, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, or the like.
TABLE 2
Table 2 is used to indicate firmware control policies and application control policies corresponding to different alert levels in a startup state of the image forming apparatus.
In table 2, the firmware control strategy at both the first alarm level and the second alarm level is to increase the preset warm-up period. The preset warm-up period refers to a period of time from the start-up time of the image forming apparatus, in which the current fixing temperature is made to reach the preset fixing temperature (i.e., fixing target temperature). Specifically, under a first alarm level, adjusting a preset preheating time length of the image forming device to be a first preheating time length which is longer than the preset preheating time length; and under a second alarm level, adjusting the preset preheating time length of the image forming device to be a second preheating time length which is longer than the preset preheating time length, wherein the second preheating time length is longer than the first preheating time length.
For example, assuming that the preset warm-up period is 10s, that is, it is required that the warm-up of the fixing unit is completed at 10s, the first preset warm-up period is 60s at the first alarm level; at the second alarm level, the second preset warm-up period is 90s.
At a third alarm level, the firmware control strategy includes: abnormality information of a high-level warning is transmitted to the image forming apparatus. The anomaly information is generally referred to as fault code information.
It should be noted that, in the start state, the application control policies corresponding to the first alarm level, the second alarm level, and the third alarm are the same as the application control policies corresponding to the same alarm level in the image forming state, and will not be described herein.
S103: the image forming apparatus is controlled to execute the determined control strategy.
In the embodiment of the present application, the operating voltage and the operating state of the image forming apparatus are acquired, and based on the foregoing steps S101 and S102, the firmware control policy and the application control policy in the start-up state, or the firmware control policy and the application control policy in the image forming state may be determined. This step is illustrated with the second alarm level: if the operating voltage of the image forming apparatus is at the second alarm level, acquiring a job when executing the firmware control policy, determining whether the current page of the job is executing, and if not, canceling the job, and notifying that the firmware is not executing the subsequent page job. If the determination is yes, the image data of the page is cut off for the firmware, so that the firmware executes the output in a blank page, and the subsequent page output is canceled. And when the control strategy is executed at the same time, displaying a medium-level warning prompt, starting timing after the user selects if the user selects the [ yes ] option, and restarting the image forming device when the timing time reaches a first preset time. And after restarting the device, detecting whether the current work is at the second alarm level again, and if the detected current work voltage does not belong to the voltage area corresponding to the second alarm level, releasing the second alarm level, and not executing the firmware control strategy and applying the control strategy. Of course, if the user selection [ no ] is detected, the restart operation is not performed. At this time, the image forming apparatus is not allowed to enter the sleep mode.
In some embodiments, if it is checked that the user has turned on the automatic restart function when the alarm level appears before performing the image forming process, when it is determined that the image forming apparatus is at the second alarm level, the control policy is automatically updated, and the image forming apparatus is restarted immediately when the first preset time arrives without selection by the user. The method does not need the user to secondarily confirm whether to restart or not, reduces the operation steps of the user, and improves the processing rate.
Further, regardless of whether the image forming apparatus is at any alarm level, if the operating voltage detected again by the image forming apparatus after executing the control policy is not located in the voltage region of the currently determined alarm level, if the operating voltage detected after executing the control policy is greater than the second preset voltage at the second alarm level, the alarm state is automatically released, that is, the firmware control policy is cancelled and the control policy is applied.
In the embodiment of the application, a control strategy that the working voltage is between the first preset voltage and the standard working voltage is further subdivided. Specifically, if the working voltage is greater than the first preset voltage and not greater than a fourth preset voltage, the preset fixing temperature of the image forming device is controlled to be increased to the second fixing temperature, wherein the fourth preset voltage is a standard working voltage. By way of example, assuming that the standard operating voltage is 170V and the preset fixing temperature is 165 ℃, if the operating voltage is between 170V and 160V, the control strategy is to perform fixing control at a second fixing temperature, such as 168 °,170 °, or the like, that is, the image forming apparatus performs detection execution in the startup state or the image forming state with the second fixing temperature as the fixing target temperature.
To further facilitate understanding of aspects of the present invention, referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 illustrates a flowchart of a control method of an image forming apparatus in an image forming state.
As shown in fig. 2, the operating voltage of the image forming apparatus is acquired. Judging whether the working voltage is smaller than a first preset voltage, if so, further judging whether the working voltage is smaller than the first preset voltage and larger than or equal to a second preset voltage, and if so, executing a firmware control strategy: switching the image forming speed to a first speed lower than the image forming speed; increasing the preset fixing temperature to a first fixing temperature; increasing the preset paper interval to a first paper interval; and executing the application control policy: a low-level alert is prompted at the display interface. If the working voltage is not smaller than the first preset voltage and larger than or equal to the second preset voltage, judging whether the working voltage is smaller than the second preset voltage and larger than or equal to the third preset voltage, and if yes, executing an application control strategy: a step of displaying a level warning in the display interface prompt and displaying a selection item for a user to confirm whether to control the image forming device to automatically restart after a first preset time; disabling the printing function and the copying function; and firmware control policy: judging whether a target page of the current operation is executing image formation, if so, stopping outputting an image signal of the target page to the image formation state, and canceling image formation of the rest page of the current operation; if not, the operation is canceled. If the working voltage is not smaller than the second preset voltage and is larger than or equal to the third preset voltage, judging whether the working voltage is smaller than the third preset voltage, if so, executing a prompt high-level warning on a display interface, and controlling the image forming device to restart automatically after the second preset time; disabling functions other than a scanning function of the image forming apparatus; executing a firmware control strategy: judging whether a target page of the current operation is executing image formation, if so, stopping outputting an image signal of the target page to the image formation state, and canceling image formation of the rest page of the current operation; if not, the operation is canceled.
