Title: Method, apparatus and program for reducing ink consumption
Inventor: SAKAI ATSUSHI
IPC: H04N1/46
Filed: 2002-10-22
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ink consumption reducing method capable of drastically reducing an amount of ink used for printing.  <P>SOLUTION: A histogram generating section 12 applies bit map deployment to print data acquired by a print data acquisition section 11 to generate a histogram of color density or the like. An environment mode decision section 13 decides an execution means for ink consumption reduction processing. A density inversion processing section 14 discriminates whether or not density inversion processing is to be executed and executes the density inversion processing when the discrimination denotes the execution of the density inversion processing. A color paper selection processing section 15 selects color paper whereby the ink consumption can be reduced. A density reduction processing section 16 reduces the color density or the like to a degree whereby people cannot recognize the reduction. An output processing section 17 outputs processed data.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
