Image processing circuit, display device, and printing device

摘要

An image processing circuit (250) for carrying out a hatching processing. A storage means (H) stores positions of pixels constituting a shape-image to be regularly-arranged and pixel values (R0,R1) of the pixels. If a pixel value of a first pixel constituting an image represented by input binary image data, the pixel value of the first pixel being expressible by one value or another value, one of the values being 0, and a pixel value of a second pixel constituting the shape-image and arranged at a position corresponding to a position of the first pixel is a predetermined value, a conversion means (S1) converts the pixel value of the first pixel into 0 and outputting a pixel value 0; and if the pixel value of the first pixel is 0, or if the pixel value of the first pixel is a value other than 0, and the pixel value of the second pixel is a value other than the predetermined value, directly outputting the pixel value of the first pixel. A first multiplication means (MU0) multiplies the pixel value of the second pixel by the pixel value output from the conversion means, and outputs a resultant value. An inversion means (SU) inverts the pixel value output from the conversion means and outputs a resultant value and a second multiplication means (MU1) multiplies the pixel value of the first pixel or a pixel value of a third pixel constituting a background part of the image represented by the binary image data by the value output from the inversion means, and outputs a resultant value. An adding means (AD) adds up the value output from the first multiplication means and the value output from the second multiplication means, and outputs a resultant value as output image data.
