Abstract:
1. An image forming system comprising: a host device; and a terminal device connected to the host device, wherein the host device comprises: wherein the terminal device comprises: wherein the original image is divided into one or more tiles formed in a main scanning direction when a size of the original image is larger than a storage buffer size of the terminal device, wherein the predetermined condition relates to a predetermined time, wherein when a time, beginning from when the code-stream receiving unit starts receiving the code stream, reaches the predetermined time, the second controller restricts the receiving operation of the code-stream receiving unit for each tile, wherein the reproduction-image outputting unit is configured to output the reproduction image for each tile based on the code stream that the code-stream receiving unit has received from the code-stream transmitting unit until the time reaches the predetermined time, wherein if the operation mode of the terminal device is switched to the speed priority operation mode, the second controller controls the control-signal transmitting unit to output the control signal on a basis of a data amount of the code stream received by the code-stream receiving unit and the time, beginning from when the code-stream receiving unit starts receiving the code stream, and wherein if the operation mode of the terminal device is switched to the quality priority operation mode, the second controller controls the control-signal transmitting unit to output the control signal on the basis of only the data amount of the code stream received by the code-stream receiving unit.
