Image Data Creation Program for Device Specification Matching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing information processing systems fail to adequately create image data tailored to the specifications of image processing devices, leading to inefficient image processing operations.
Innovation Solution
A computer-readable storage medium containing a creation program and a transmission program that communicate with each other to receive and transmit specification information and image data, ensuring that image data is created and processed according to the specific capabilities of connected image processing devices, such as MFPs with different printing specifications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If image data is created without considering device specifications, then the image processing operation is simple and fast, but the image data does not match the specifications of the image processing device, leading to processing errors or inefficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by obtaining device specification information before creating image data. The image processing apparatus retrieves its specification information (such as color space, resolution, format) and transmits it to the information processing apparatus in advance, so that the image data can be created with appropriate parameters from the beginning, ensuring compatibility without requiring complex post-processing adjustments
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by using the obtained device specification information to guide the image data creation process. The information processing apparatus receives the specification information, uses it as feedback to adjust image data parameters (such as converting color spaces, adjusting resolution), and creates image data that is optimized for the specific device, thereby improving reliability while managing complexity through intelligent parameter adjustment
2Productivity
If the system waits for device selection before creating image data, then the processing flow is simple, but the productivity is reduced due to waiting time
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by obtaining device specification information in advance, before the actual image data creation process. The image processing apparatus retrieves and transmits its specifications proactively, allowing the information processing apparatus to prepare appropriate image data parameters ahead of time, thereby eliminating waiting time and improving productivity without significantly complicating the processing flow
Solution Approach 2:
The image processing apparatus serves itself by automatically obtaining and transmitting its own specification information to the information processing apparatus. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for manual configuration or complex interaction protocols, enabling the system to proceed with image data creation immediately upon receiving the specification information, thus improving productivity while maintaining operational simplicity

AI summary
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores a creation program including a set of instructions readable by a computer of an information processing apparatus. The set of instructions, when executed by the computer, causes the information processing apparatus to perform: receiving, from a transmission program, specification information indicative of a specification of an image processing device configured to communicate with the information processing apparatus, the transmission program being readable by the computer and being different from the creation program; creating image data corresponding to the specification information received from the transmission program; and outputting the image data to the transmission program, the transmission program being configured to transmit the image data to the image processing device.
