IMAGE READING APPARATUS CAPABLE OF INSTANTANEOUSLY EXECUTING FUNCTION WITH DOCUMENT SETTING ON PLATEN GLASS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

Provided is an image reading apparatus that instantaneously executes functions and settings with the setting of a document on a platen glass, and an image forming apparatus. The image reading part according to the present disclosure includes a platen cover, an opening and closing detecting part, and an operation executing part. The document placing position detecting part acquires position placing data by pre-scan of a scanner, when opening of the platen cover is detected, after the opening of the platen cover is detected, and detects a placing position of a document placed on the platen glass based on the acquired placing position detecting data. The operation executing part receives selection of functions corresponding to the placing position detected by the document placing position detecting part and executes the selected function.

主权项

1. An image reading apparatus including a document reading part that scans a document placed on a platen glass by a scanner and reads image data; and an operation part that receives selection of functions to process the image data, the apparatus comprising:
a platen cover that opens and closes an upper surface of the platen glass; an opening and closing detecting part that detects opening and closing of the platen cover; a document placing position detecting part that causes the scanner to acquire placing position detecting data by pre-scan when closing of the platen cover is detected, after the opening of the platen cover is detected, and detects a placing position at which the document is placed on the platen glass based on the acquired placing position detecting data; a memory part that stores linking operation information in which the placing position is correlated with the function; and an operation executing part that receives selection of functions corresponding to the placing position detected by the document placing position detecting part based on the linking operation information, and executes the selected function.
