Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus typified by a copier and a facsimile apparatus with a copying function, and more particularly to an image processing apparatus characterized by an operation after a job is completed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is proposed a facsimile apparatus with a copying function which does not erase image data on the last copy original stored in an image memory until the next original is placed on a reading section after copying is completed. Have been. According to such a facsimile apparatus with a copy function, even if it is noticed that the number of copies is insufficient after the copy is completed, additional copies can be made without reading the original again.

[0003]

A facsimile apparatus with a copying function uses the remaining memory capacity of the image memory obtained by subtracting the amount of image data stored in the image memory from the memory capacity of the image memory. Is displayed on the display unit. That is, in a facsimile apparatus with a copy function capable of additionally copying image data as described above,
When image data for additional copying is stored in the image memory, the remaining memory ratio is calculated based on the following equation, and the memory remaining ratio is displayed on the display unit.

Memory remaining rate [%] = 100 [%] − total data amount / memory capacity × 100 [%] Here, the memory capacity of the image memory is 1500 [KB],
The total amount of image data stored in the image memory is 10
In the case of 92 [KB], “27% of remaining memory” is displayed on the display unit based on the above equation. For this reason, the fax sender sometimes visually recognizes the display of “memory remaining 27%” before placing a document, and sometimes mistakenly recognizes that the remaining memory is too small to transmit the memory.

That is, when the next original is placed on the reading section, image data for additional copying is deleted from the image memory, and a new remaining memory ratio is displayed on the display section. here,
When the data amount of the image data for additional copying out of 1092 [KB] is 1033 [KB], the total data amount to be stored in the image memory after erasing the image data for additional copying is 59 (KB). = 1092-1033)
[KB]. In this case, based on the above equation,
"96% remaining memory capacity" is displayed on the display unit.

In other words, when a document is placed on the reading section, image data for additional copying is deleted from the image memory based on a detection signal from the document presence sensor, and the remaining memory increases. For a fax sender who has not been recognized, it was sometimes misunderstood that memory transmission was not possible. As a result, the FAX sender has to stop the FAX transmission based on the display of “27% of the remaining memory capacity”, although the FAX sender can actually perform the memory transmission.

The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide an image processing apparatus capable of preventing erroneous recognition based on the notified remaining memory capacity. is there.

Next, the operation of the facsimile machine 1 with a copying function when setting a job for calculating the remaining memory ratio R for display in the image memory 80 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. . This operation is performed based on a program stored in the ROM 20.
It is executed under the control of the MPU 10 (the same applies to the operation of the facsimile machine 1 with a copying function).

Now, when the setting key 69 is operated, FIG.
In step S1 shown in FIG. 5, as shown in FIG. 5, each job of "copied document", "transmitted document", and "printed received document" is displayed on the display unit 70.

In step S2, the job of "copied document" is selected by operating the cross key 67 among the jobs displayed on the display unit 70 in step S1, and the job of "copied document" is selected. It is determined whether or not the operation is confirmed by operating the soft key 68.
If the job of “copied document” is selected and confirmed, the job of “copied document” is added to the calculation target of the remaining memory ratio R for display in the image memory 80 in step S3. On the other hand, if the job of “copied document” is not selected and confirmed in step S2, the process proceeds to step S4.

In steps S4 to S7, the same processing as the processing for the "copied original" job shown in steps S2 and S3 is performed on the "transmitted original" and "printed received original" jobs. Execute That is, a setting process is performed to determine whether or not each job of “sent document” and “printed received document” is added to the calculation target of the remaining memory ratio R for display in the image memory 80.

In step S8, in addition to the jobs of "memory transmission original" to "network scan" in the image memory management table MT shown in FIG.
The “job” added in steps S5 and S7 is stored in the RAM 30 as a calculation target of the remaining memory ratio R for display of the image memory 80. More specifically, for example, when the jobs of “copied original” and “sent original” are added to the calculation target in steps S3 and S5, the “memory transmitted original”
To each job of “sent original” as the calculation target
Store it in AM30.

Next, the operation of the facsimile machine 1 with a copying function when displaying the remaining memory ratio R for display of the image memory 80 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

Now, the memory reception is performed and the recording unit 50
When the recording of the received image data is completed in step S21, in step S21 shown in FIG. 4, the memory capacity S of the image memory 80 mounted on the facsimile machine 1 with a copying function is calculated.

In step S22, based on the "data amount" corresponding to the "job" in which the image data is stored in the image memory 80, the image memory management table M shown in FIG.
T is created and stored in the RAM 30. Specifically, when the data amount of the image data received and recorded in the memory in the final job is, for example, 1033 [KB], as shown in FIG. "1033" is written in "Amount". That is, even after the image data received by the memory is recorded, the received image data is stored in the image memory 80. Therefore, the received image data can be additionally recorded.

In step S23, step S22 is performed.
In each of the “jobs” in the image memory management table MT created in the above, in step S8 shown in FIG.
The “job” stored in the AM 30 is read. More specifically, “memory transmitted document” to “transmitted document” shown in FIG.
Of each job is read.

In step S24, step S23 is performed.
"Data amount" corresponding to "Job" read in
Is calculated. Specifically, “2 [KB]” corresponding to the “memory transmission original” job shown in FIG.
~ "0 [KB]" corresponding to the "sent document" job
Are all added.

In step S25, the remaining memory ratio R for display of the image memory 80 is calculated and stored in the RAM 30. Specifically, the display remaining memory rate R is calculated as follows.

Display memory remaining rate R [%] = 100 [%] − total data amount U / memory capacity S × 100 [%] (Equation 1) That is, step S 3 and step S 3 shown in FIG. In S5, each job of “copied document” and “transmitted document” is stored in the memory remaining rate R for display in the image memory 80, respectively.
If the total data amount U is “59”
[KB] ". On the other hand, for the total data amount U, “408 [KB]” corresponding to the “free index” which is the actual remaining memory of the image memory 80 and “1033 [KB]” corresponding to the “printed received original” job Are added to the memory capacity S is "1500 [KB]". Therefore, in the case of the example of FIG. 2, the remaining memory rate R for display of the image memory 80 is “96 [%]” based on Expression 1. By the way, in step S7 shown in FIG. 3, "1033 [K
B] is also a calculation target of the display memory remaining rate R of the image memory 80, the display memory remaining rate R of the image memory 80 is calculated as “27 [%] based on Equation 1. ".

In step S26, it is determined whether or not the FAX / copy key 61 has been set to the FAX mode. If the fax mode is set, step S
Move to 27. On the other hand, if the fax mode is not set, the process proceeds to step S28.

In step S27, a FAX mode standby screen is displayed on the display unit 70. Specifically, the RAM 30
From the image memory 8 calculated in step S25
The memory remaining rate R for displaying 0 is read. And FIG.
As shown in FIG.
Is displayed, a message indicating the remaining memory rate R, for example, "communication is possible, remaining memory 96%". That is, the data amount is actually “1033” in the image memory 80.
[KB] "image data,
In other words, although the actual remaining memory ratio of the image memory 80 is “27 [%]”, “communication is possible,
96% of remaining memory "is displayed.

When a FAX original is placed on the reading section 40 at the time of FAX transmission, the image data for additional recording stored in the image memory 80 based on the detection signal from the original presence / absence sensor 41. To delete. That is, in this case, the actual remaining memory ratio of the image memory 80 is “27”.
[%] ”To“ 96 [%] ”. Therefore, in step S27, the message "communication is possible, remaining memory 96
Even if "%" is displayed, the image memory 80 does not run out of memory during fax transmission. Therefore, fax transmission (memory transmission) can be performed.

If the fax mode is not set in step S26, that is, if the copy mode is set, a standby screen for the copy mode is displayed on the display unit 70 in step S28. Specifically, a message indicating that copying is possible and a message indicating copy conditions, for example, “copying is possible, set 1”, “paper A4, magnification 10
0% "is displayed.

Next, the operation of turning on or off the LED 71 in the facsimile machine 1 with a copying function will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. In step S41 shown in FIG. 7, it is determined whether image data of the last job is stored in the image memory 80 for additional recording. And memory reception is performed,
In the case of the example of FIG. 2 in which the recording of the received image data is completed by the recording unit 50 and the image data of the job of the “printed received original” is stored in the image memory 80, the process proceeds to step S42. On the other hand, if none of the image data of each job of “copied document”, “transmitted document”, and “printed received document” is stored in the image memory 80, the process proceeds to step S43.

In step S42, the LED 71 is turned on to inform that the image data that has been copied, transmitted to the memory, or received in the memory can be additionally recorded in the last job. Specifically, in the case of the example shown in FIG. 2, the image data of the job of “printed received original” is stored in the image memory 8.
0, the “printed received original”
The LED 71 is turned on in order to notify that the image data of the current job, that is, the image data that has been received and recorded in the last job in the memory, can be additionally recorded. That is, as shown in FIG. 6, a standby screen in the FAX mode, that is, “memory remaining 96%” is displayed on the display unit 70 and the LED 71
Lights up. In other words, although the image data of the job of the “printed received original” is actually stored in the image memory 80, “96% of the remaining memory” is displayed on the display unit 70 and “ The LED 71 is turned on to notify that the image data of the job of the “printed received original” can be additionally recorded.

Incidentally, the "memory transmission original" shown in FIG.
The “data amount” corresponding to the “data amount” to the “sent document” job corresponding to the job of “0 [K
B] ”, the image memory 8
The remaining memory rate R for displaying 0 is “100%”. Accordingly, in such a case, the “memory remaining 100%” is displayed on the display unit 70, and the LED 71 is displayed in order to notify that additional recording of the image data of the “printed received original” job is possible. Lights up.

In step S43, the LED 71 is turned off to inform that the image data that has been copied, transmitted to the memory, or received in the memory cannot be additionally recorded in the last job. Specifically, for example, when the clear key for deleting the image data of the last job from the image memory 80 is operated after the end of the last job, the LED 71 is turned off.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following operations and effects can be obtained. (1) A display memory in which the amount of image data to be additionally recorded is included in the remaining amount of memory although image data to be additionally recorded is actually stored in the image memory 80. The remaining amount is displayed on the display unit 70 as the remaining memory rate R (step S27 shown in FIG. 4). In other words, regardless of whether image data for additional recording is stored or not, the remaining memory capacity for display ignoring the amount of image data for additional recording is displayed on the display unit 70 with the memory remaining rate R. are doing. Specifically, although the actual remaining memory ratio of the image memory 80 is "27 [%]", "communication is possible, remaining memory 96%" is displayed as shown in FIG. ing. Therefore, the FAX sender does not visually recognize the FAX mode standby screen, and does not mistakenly recognize that the FAX transmission cannot be performed because the remaining memory is small. Therefore, erroneous recognition based on the displayed remaining memory rate can be prevented.

(2) In addition, when the remaining memory rate is displayed as "96%" close to "100%" as in the above (1), the operator sets the remaining memory rate to 100%. %, It may be erroneously recognized that the image data of the final job cannot be additionally recorded. However, when image data for additional recording is stored in the image memory 80, as shown in FIG. 6, the LED 71 is turned on to notify that additional recording of the image data can be performed. (Fig. 7
Step S42). Therefore, the operator can easily determine whether or not additional recording is possible.

(3) In particular, the “data amount” corresponding to the “memory transmitted original” job shown in FIG. 2 to the “data amount” corresponding to the “transmitted original” job are all “0”.
In the case of [KB], “100% of remaining memory” is displayed on the display unit 70, and “Printed received original” is displayed.
The LED 71 is turned on to notify that additional image data of the job can be recorded. That is, in practice,
Although the image data of the job of the “printed received original” is stored in the image memory 80, the “memory remaining 1
00% "is displayed on the display unit 70, and the LED 71 is turned on to notify that additional recording of image data of the job of" printed received original "is possible. Therefore, in such a case, the operator may select “memory remaining 1
00% ”is displayed, the remaining memory is low and FAX
It is not mistaken that transmission is not possible, and LED7
Based on the lighting of 1, it is possible to easily determine that the additional recording of the image data of the job of the “printed received original” is possible.

(4) When the job for which the display remaining memory ratio R is to be calculated is set by operating the operation unit 60 (FIG. 3), the display remaining memory ratio R is set based on the setting. Is calculated (step S25 shown in FIG. 4). For this reason, it is possible to arbitrarily set the job for which the display memory remaining rate R is to be calculated according to the needs of the operator. Therefore, it is possible to provide the facsimile machine 1 with the copying function according to the needs of the operator.

(5) When the received image data is recorded on recording paper, the received image data is read from the image memory 80, and the read received image data is decoded by the codec 90. To record on the recording paper.
Then, the recorded recording paper may be copied and distributed. In such a case, the image data obtained by copying the recorded recording paper deteriorates more than the image data read from the image memory 80 and recorded. However, in the present embodiment, even after recording of the received image data, the received image data is stored in the image memory 80 as image data of the job of “printed received original”. Therefore, when the received image data is additionally recorded, the image quality at the time of recording the received image data read from the image memory 80 can be maintained. Therefore, the image quality is not deteriorated unlike the case where the recording paper on which the received image data is recorded is copied.

The above embodiment can be embodied with the following modifications.
