An image processing apparatus, a terminal, a printer apparatus and an image processing method for restoring, when document image obtained from an original image is read and turned to electronic data, the image data in the form of electronic data to the state of original image, are provided. An image processing apparatus reading a document image formed from an original image includes a print condition recognizing unit recognizing a mark on the read image and confirming contents represented by the mark; and an image restoring unit restoring, if the print condition recognizing unit confirms that conditions for forming a document are included in the mark, the read image to the state of original image based on the conditions for forming the document represented by the mark.

Image processing apparatus, terminal, printer apparatus and image processing method, having image restoring function

A data processing system is provided, which improves convenience for a user in setting an operation parameter for application software to be executed by a server apparatus connected to an image forming apparatus via a network. An extracting portion of the image forming apparatus extracts a parameter entered by the user from a parameter setting sheet bearing the parameter entered therein, and transmits the extracted parameter to the server apparatus. Application software installed in the server apparatus receiving the parameter apply various kinds of information processing to document image data transmitted from the image forming apparatus, based on the parameter extracted by the extracting portion of the image forming apparatus.

Image forming apparatus, document reading apparatus, server apparatus, and data processing system

It is facilitated to execute a workflow requiring user authentication. When an IC card reading/writing apparatus reads information recorded in an IC card owned by a user, an image forming apparatus transmits user credential information included in the read information to an authentication server. The authentication server performs authentication of the user based on the user credential information transmitted from the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus transmits workflow program information included in the information recorded in an authentication token and parameter information for the workflow program to an application server. The application server controls the image forming apparatus based on the workflow program information.

Document processing automated system and image forming apparatus

A strong lightweight front cover that prevents distortion of a sliding contact surface when the front cover and impeller shell are welded together is provided. The front cover has a radial flange part and an axial flange part that extends from an outside edge of radial flange part . The radial flange part has a sliding contact surface on an axially facing surface thereof for sliding against a friction facing . The axial flange part has a connection part that connects to the radial flange part and a welding part that is connected by welding to a pump impeller. The various portions of the front cover have differing rigidities and thicknesses.

Fluid-type torque transmission device with lockup clutch

An electric discharge device,is provided for removing material from a workpiece,to form a through hole,therein. The electric discharge device,is designed to maintain the pressure of processing liquid after the hole,extends through the workpiece,to thereby stabilize the electric discharge during the hole forming process. Basically, the electric discharge device,includes a movable discharging electrode,, an arc voltage discharging device,, a processing liquid supply mechanism,and an indexing mechanism,. The arc voltage charging device,supplies current at a predetermined voltage between the discharging electrode,and a workpiece,. An electrode reciprocating mechanism,moves the discharging electrode,towards and away from the workpiece. The processing liquid supply mechanism,is fluidly coupled to an internal bore,of the discharging electrode,for supplying processing liquid inside the discharging electrode,. The processing liquid flows out of an end of the discharging electrode,and engages the workpiece,. The indexing mechanism,has a jig,with a plurality of concave portions or recesses,that are positioned to correspond to the discharging electrode,. These concave portions or recesses,maintain the pressure of the processing liquid after a through hole,is formed on the workpiece,. In the preferred embodiment, the workpiece,is a gear with a plurality of holes being formed between adjacent teeth portions. The gear has an annular space,that receives the jig
