Printing control device, image forming apparatus, and image forming method

摘要

A printing control device is disclosed. The printing control device includes a user interface unit to receive an print command for a print job, an extraction unit to extract a bitmap image from the print job, a sketch image generating unit to generate a sketch image by using the extracted bitmap image, a print data generating unit to replace the bitmap image by the generated sketch image in the print job to generate print data, and a communication interface unit to transmit the generated print data to an image forming apparatus.

主权项

1. An image forming method, comprising:
extracting, by a processor, a bitmap image from print data; generating edge color channel images using the extracted bitmap image; converting the extracted bitmap image to a sketch image by multiplying each of edge color channel images of the extracted bitmap image; replacing the bitmap image with the sketch image in the print data; printing the print data in which the bitmap image is replaced with the sketch image; and multiplying each of color channels of the bitmap image.
