Title: Image processing method
Inventor: MASUOKA HIRONOBU
IPC: H04N1/405
Filed: 2001-04-26
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processing method for solving a problem of deteriorated image quality particular to an error diffusion method caused at a low density area at an end of an image in the lateral direction by means of a comparatively simple method. SOLUTION: Pixels of image data expressed in multi-value gradation are binarized or subjected to multi-value processing by using a prescribed threshold value. In multi-value processing, an error between an original value and a converted value of a target pixel to be subjected to multi-value processing is obtained and this error is distributed to other unprocessed pixels. In the error diffusion processing, a proper minimum density is set in advance. When a density of a first noticed pixel of the scan line of the image data is a minimum density or below, the density of the noticed pixel is revised to the minimum density. Then the error diffusion processing is conducted on the basis of the revised density. Moreover, when an output result of the noticed pixel indicates '1' and also the original density of the noticed pixel is 0%, an output result of the noticed pixel is revised into '0'.
