Embodiment 1

[0203] Figure 15 It is a diagram showing an example of a preview screen when displaying information on piercing holes as processing information. user in Figure 7 After setting the printing conditions on the standard screen 40 shown, the preview confirmation key 46 is operated to display a preview image of the image data. The display screen at this time is, for example, Figure 11 A preview screen 70 as shown. And in this preview screen 70, by operating the processing display key 78, it is possible to display Figure 15 As shown, a preview screen 80A showing the information (processing information) indicating the processing state, that is, the penetration hole 82 is displayed.

[0204] In addition, the reason for displaying "A" in the preview image 81 is to easily recognize the orientation of the image.

[0205] Here, on the preview screen 80A, the preview image 81 is displayed in the direction in which the document is read by the reading unit 13 . In addition, the pier...

Embodiment 2

[0227] Figure 19 It is a figure which shows still another example of the preview screen which displays the finishing information when stapling is set as finishing.

[0228] exist Figure 19 In the preview screen 80E shown, a preview image 81 is displayed maintaining the positional relationship (orientation) in which the printed paper is discharged.

[0229] For example, suppose the Figure 10 The key 62B is selected in the staple setting screen 60A shown, and the key 62B is used to instruct that when the original is placed on the reading unit 13 when reading the copied original, the long side of the original is aligned with the reading direction in the direction indicated by the key 62A. Place the originals with the same orientation, and perform two-point stapling on the left side of the printed paper. At this time, the upper side of the printed paper is bound at two places.

[0230] here, in image 3 The shown post-processing device 300 or Figure 4 In the post-process...

Abstract

Provided is an image forming apparatus that enables to confirm a finish state in a preview reliably so that unnecessary image formation processing due to setting errors by a user is able to be prevented and that processing load for performing a preview display at high speed is reduced. On a preview screen before performing image formation, a preview image showing the entire page of image data is displayed. When a information about finishing such as forming a punch hole, staple, and a paper fold are set to recording paper on which the image data is printed, these as information about finishingare displayed out of a recording paper area of the preview image. In addition, for example, an arrow indicating a position of the actual punch hole to the recording paper is also displayed as a part of the information about finishing together with the punch hole.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus having a function of previewing image data from which a document image has been read before image formation, and a preview display method. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, image forming apparatuses such as copiers have a function of displaying a preview of image data to be imaged before image formation. [0003] For example, when image forming (printing) image data of an original document read by a scanner or image data sent from an external device, some devices display a preview of the image data to be imaged and allow the user to confirm the image data. Image formation is performed after the display. [0004] In addition, some devices can perform various processing according to user settings when image formation is performed on image data in advance by an image forming device. For example, there is a process of stapling or punching paper used for image formation (recording pap...
