Abstract

Abstract The picture image processing system disclosed in the present invention comprises a control number assigning means, a job reservation means, a control information storing means, and an output means, which yields the output of paper with at least some part of the control information printed thereon together with the control number, and this system may further comprise a reservation result recognizing means and an output means constructed in such a manner as to be capable of producing the output of the status of the reserved jobs printed thereon together with the control number, the information thus printed out being at least either one of the two types, characters and geometrical patterns, which may be made selectable by either a difference in the input equipment or the result of a processing job or both of these, with the possible addition of the capability of controlling the printing position for the characters or geometrical patterns. Thus, the picture image processing system outputs the output paper with the job results, the type of the input equipment, and so forth printed thereon, thereby partitioning off the individual jobs with a clear distinction made between the partitioning sheet and the other output paper, which offers enhanced visual recognition for the operator's benefit.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 157 words
A picture image processing system for producing output picture information by performing a plurality of picture image processing jobs on the input picture information received from a plurality of different input devices, wherein the picture image processing system comprises: control number assigning means for assigning self-initiated control numbers to the plurality of processing jobs; reservation means capable of accepting one or more reservations for a processing job in addition to a job being performed; control information storing means for accumulating control information on said processing jobs; output means for outputting a record with at least a portion of said control information printed thereon together with said control number; and reservation result recognizing means for determining the result of processing operations performed on a reserved job, and wherein said output means outputs paper with at least said result from said processing operations performed on said reserved job printed thereon along with said control information and said control number.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 157 words
A picture image processing system for producing output picture information by performing a plurality of picture image processing jobs on the input picture information received from a plurality of different input devices, wherein the picture image processing system comprises: control number assigning means for assigning self-initiated control numbers to the plurality of processing jobs; reservation means capable of accepting one or more reservations for a processing job in addition to a job being performed; control information storing means for accumulating control information on said processing jobs; output means for outputting a record with at least a portion of said control information printed thereon together with said control number; and reservation result recognizing means for determining the result of processing operations performed on a reserved job, and wherein said output means outputs paper with at least said result from said processing operations performed on said reserved job printed thereon along with said control information and said control number.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
A picture image processing system according to claim 1, wherein said output means prints information comprising characters, geometrical patterns, or combinations thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
A picture image processing system according to claim 2, wherein said characters or geometrical patterns are selectable on the basis of one or both of differences in said input devices and a result of performing a processing job.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
A picture image processing system according to claim 2, wherein said output means is capable of controlling the position at which said characters or said geometrical patterns are printed.
