Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a color processing apparatus and a color processing method that preserve a given amount of black as much as possible in the conversion from a color signal containing the black to that containing the black, satisfy a coverage restriction, and can obtain an output color signal enabling natural color reproduction.  <P>SOLUTION: A targeted color signal and an inputted amount of black accompanied with the targeted color signal are received, and an equivalent amount of outputted black in an output color space being equivalent to the inputted amount of black is obtained from the inputted amount of black at an equivalent-amount-of-outputted-black calculation section 11. An output color signal is calculated from the targeted color signal and an equivalent amount of inputted black at an output color signal judgment section 12, and it is judged whether the coverage restriction is satisfied. When the coverage restriction is not satisfied, the inputted amount of black is adjusted for calculating an optimum amount of black in processing after a restricted-amount-of-black calculation section 13 and an optimum color signal for satisfying the coverage restriction is calculated for generating the output color signal with the optimum amount of black.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Title: Image output system and image output device used therefor, image input device, and control method
Inventor: SAKUTA KENJI
IPC: H04N5/76
Filed: 2002-09-19
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make processing of an image input device easy, even when the image input device is connected to an image output device of a different output mode.  <P>SOLUTION: A digital camera 30 is connected to an image output device 40 of a different image output mode to use the camera 30 as a USB (universal serial bus) device. The device 40 transmits a command asking a request at a very short time interval to the digital camera 30 by using an interrupt pipe. When a request for outputting an image is issued to the device 40, the digital camera 30 transmits a job disregarding the output mode of the device 40 as a response to the request. The device 40 interprets the received job and operates on the basis of its output mode. Since the same job is used regardless of the output mode of the device 40, the processing of the digital camera 30 can be made easy.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
