Description of the Invention (1) Field of Invention The present invention relates to a method and device for photocopying multiple pages and multiple documents, especially using batch (Batch) Method and device for copying multiple pages of documents to obtain multiple copies. 2. Background of the invention / The conventional photocopying device (Copier) wants to copy multiple pages of documents into multiple copies, and must rely on the help of Sorter to get multiple copies in order. / The first picture shows a conventional analog copying device (Analog Copier) 1 〇, when the device copies multiple pages and multiple documents, the scanning device 12 scans a page of the original document and sends the image data directly to the printing The device 14 prints a copy of a page, and then sends it to the paper tray 18 through the sorter 16 to accumulate it. When printing a second copy of the original document on the same page, the previous steps must be repeated, and so on. In other words, the scanning and printing steps must be repeated once for each printed page. This is a one-scan, one-copy method. To adopt this technology, a large number of scanning actions must be performed. For example, if you want to make 25 copies of a 30-page document, you need to scan 750 (= 30X25) times. In addition to the shortcomings of the above-mentioned large number of scans, the use of the pager 16 increases the probability of machine failure such as paper jams, and the pager 16 and paper tray 18 are cumbersome and occupy a considerable amount of space, limiting the pages allowed by one photocopy. Number and number of copies. For example, the general pager 16 and paper tray 18 can hold a maximum of 20 copies. When copying 25 copies, you must send the document twice to complete the copy. Also, if the number of original pages is large, it may exceed the space that can be accommodated by Tray 18. 'This will cause inconvenience to the photocopying work. At this time, the originals must be disassembled and divided into several pieces.'

When copying multiple pages and multiple documents, the process of copying is to scan the first page of the document to print the required number of copies, and then send them to each tray 1 8 'through the pager 16 and then print the second page according to the same steps. After repeating scanning and printing until photocopying is completed, a complete copy of each tray 18 is stacked. This method is called One Scan, Multiple Copies. However, although using a digital copying device can reduce the number of scans, other problems remain unsolved. Therefore, it is necessary for Bibi to improve the technology of photocopying multiple pages and multiple documents to improve it. 3. The purpose and description of the invention It is the object of the present invention to propose a novel and improved method and device for copying multiple pages and multiple documents to improve the lack of conventional skills.

Detailed description of the invention The main feature of the invention is to scan all the original documents to be photocopied and take 6 papers again Applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) 507164 A7 B7 ---------------— V. Description of the invention () Obtain image data and save it, then Print all copies. The third figure shows an embodiment. The photocopying device 30 uses a processor 22 to control the scanning device 12 to scan the document original. However, when scanning the original, all the scanning is completed at one time, and the scanned image data is sent to Memory 2 4 storage. The memory 2 4 of the photocopying device 30 is a built-in (B ui 1 t-I η) method, and a semiconductor IC memory element such as SRA Μ (static random access memory) or DRA Μ (dynamic Random access memory). Before storing the image data, the processor 22 can be used to compress the image data in order to reduce the occupied memory space. According to the current compression technology, a page of A 4 paper can occupy about 1 MB (million bytes). After compression, it can be reduced to 5 OkB, and the memory space is reduced to one-twentieth. That is, 1MB can store 20 pages, which is very easy to achieve the purpose of industrial use. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) There are two ways to scan the original documents. The first is to scan from the first page of the document to the last page in order. Scanning is reversed from the last page to the first page. For the same storage method, the order of pages stored by the two methods is exactly the opposite, and there will be differences in the results of future printing. The details will be discussed later. After all the document originals have been scanned and stored in the memory 24, printing copies are started. At this time, the processor 22 takes out the data from the memory 24 and sends it to the printing device 14 for copying. Once the stored data is copied once, a complete copy is obtained. Repeat as many times as you want to copy. . The printed result is sent to the paper tray 1 8 '. Since each time, one copy is printed from beginning to end. 7 paper sizes are applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm). 507164 Central Bureau of Standards, Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 printed by the employee's consumer cooperative. V. Invention Description () The whole document will be printed one after the other. The sorted photocopy can be obtained without further paging. If the image data has been compressed before being stored in the memory 24, it must be decompressed after reading to enter the actual printing process. There are two different orders for printing data from memory 2 4. One is first-in, first-out, that is, it is read and printed according to the order in which it is stored in memory. When the pages are scanned, the printing will start from the last page as well, so the result will be that the first page is on the top, and the order of the original pages will be in order. Another printing method is first-in-first-out, that is, the order of printing is opposite to the order of scanning. ' Copy forward to the first page. Two kinds of scanning methods and two kinds of printing order can provide flexible operation design. The present invention utilizes a complete scan to print a copy, which not only eliminates the pager to simplify the photocopying device, but also limits the number of photocopying copies. After one scan, the number of copies to be photocopyed can be arbitrarily increased. Since the present invention scans all original documents before printing, it can provide additional layout functions. As shown in the third figure, an input device 26 is used to connect to the processor 22. After the scanning operation is completed, the input device 26 can be used to input instructions to arrange the data stored in the memory 24. For example, to rearrange the page order or Select some pages for future printing, and rescan for some pages. These can expand the functions of the photocopying device. The fourth figure shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which the photocopying device 40 still includes a processor 22 and is connected to the scanning device 12 and the printing device 14 ′, but the paper size 8 applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297).

Description of the invention () Pass the processor 2 2 External computer system 4 2. You can use the resources of the computer system 4 2 such as its memory device and input device. You can also scan the data and use other software programs for different processing procedures' or send them to other locations through the network system. On the one hand, it expands the available memory space. On the other hand, it also provides the possibility of data reprocessing. There are many choices of memory devices provided through the computer system 42, such as hard disk drives, floppy disk drives, CD-R, DVD-RAM, magneto-optical drives, and tape drives. Another advantage of using the computer system 42 is to use its input device to order the processor 2 2 to perform other functions. It can also directly process the image data arrangement in the computer system 4 2 and even carry the stored data to him. Handle it separately. The detailed operation process of the present invention is shown in the fifth figure. After ordering photocopying in step S50, proceed to step S52 to scan the document original, and then store the scanned image data, step S54. If you want to save memory space, use compression at the same time in this step The technology compresses the scanned data before storing it. Then step S 56 is to check whether the document original has been scanned. If it is not completely scanned, go back to step s 5 2 and continue scanning the document original and store the image data until all the documents to be copied are scanned once. After completing the scanning operation, go to step S 5 8 and choose whether to perform the layout operation. If you want to perform the layout, go to step s 60 'You can reorder the pages, select the pages, rescan some pages or use software tools to After editing, go back to step S 5 8 and choose whether you want to arrange it again.
