For a low saturation and high density region in a printed sheet identified based on rasterized data, flushing ejection is executed, with landing positions dispersed in the above-mentioned region. For a region which is low in saturation but is not high in density, an edge portion of the above-mentioned region is determined as the landing positions. During these processes, the adjustment is additionally made to the ejection from inkjet nozzles for color components which are not to be subjected to the flushing ejection, to thereby maintain the original hue of the above-mentioned region. This achieves the flushing ejection while minimizing the degradation of the quality of the printed sheet. Further, in the variable printing, whether the flushing ejection is necessary or not is judged based on details to be printed on a base page. This causes the execution of the flushing ejection whenever individual printed sheets are produced. Therefore, the print quality is held uniform during the production of a multiplicity of different printed sheets.

The invention discloses a depth information extraction-based wall flatness detection method and belongs to the distance measurement technique based on binocular vision. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the depth information from a camera to a wall surface is extracted by a binocular camera.

Meanwhile, one depth information graph is rotated and translated, so that the coordinates of the imaging spaces of the two depth information graphs are overlapped. In this way, a reinforced depth information graph is generated. The mode of the depth value of the reinforced depth information graph is adopted as the distance value of the to-be-detected region. Based on the size relationship between the distance value and a preset threshold, the flatness of the to-be-detected region is judged. The method can be applied to the intelligent plastering operation and has the advantages of simple, convenient and intelligent operation, high flatness detection timeliness and high accuracy.
