A method of enhancing quality of an image object included in a compound document, and an apparatus for performing the method are provided. The method includes receiving a request to print a compound document including an image object, merging parts corresponding to the image object from among data corresponding to the compound document and enhancing the quality of the image object, and encoding data corresponding to the compound document by using a printer control language (PCL) and outputting the encoded data.

A printing control method includes searching for an XML paper specification (XPS) attribute file from an XPS file if a command to print the XPS file is received, determining whether the searched XPS attribute file is located within a preset portion of the XPS file, adjusting a structure of the XPS file if the XPS attribute file is not located within the preset portion of the XPS file, and transmitting the XPS file of the adjusted structure to an image forming apparatus. Accordingly, the speed of the image forming apparatus recognizing the XPS file can be enhanced.

An image forming method which examines validity of an output object using an ROP, for example, and determines whether the output object is printed in a color mode or in a mono mode, is provided. The method includes detecting an output object having a color value from among output objects constituting a mono page, examining the validity of the detected output object, and outputting the detected output object as a mono object if the output object is determined not to be valid. Accordingly, if a mono image having an RGB value is recognized as a color object but is data not to be output on paper or media, the image is recognized as data which are not necessary to be output using color toner, so that only black toner is used. Accordingly, the printing rate increases, and efficiency of processing a printing is enhanced.

Image forming device and method which outputs mono object when object not actually expressed in colors or not actually to be printed

A method of indicating a paper insertion direction, the method including displaying an image of a paper cassette when a user tries to insert a paper on which other contents are previously printed into the paper cassette to print predetermined contents; displaying an expected print result indicating whether a to-be-printed side is on the same as a preprinted side of the paper and whether the to-be-printed side has the same up/down direction as the preprinted side; and displaying images that distinguish between front and rear sides of the paper and between up and down directions with respect to the preprinted side based on the expected print result. Also, a method of indicating a preprinted paper insertion direction and alarming improper insertion when inserting a preprinted paper into a printer, the method including displaying the preprinted paper insertion direction into a paper cassette on a display unit in the printer; determining whether the preprinted paper is properly inserted into the paper cassette; and outputting an alarm message if the preprinted paper is not properly inserted into the paper cassette.
