Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a document binding processing method according to an exemplary embodiment, which is applied to a printer provided with a binding section for performing document binding, as illustrated in fig. 1, the method including the following steps S101 to S103:

in step S101, a plurality of pages to be printed by the printer are determined.

In step S102, it is detected whether a page having an association is included in the plurality of pages.

In step S103, when it is detected that the plurality of pages includes a related page, the printed related page is bound by the binding unit.

In this embodiment, the pages with associations are pages in page form and/or pages with associations on page content. The associated pages include a plurality of pages with the number of 2 or more than 2. For example, a paper from the abstract, the directory … …, to the thank you, is a page with logical associations between the front and back pages, which can be referred to as an association.

In this embodiment, after all the pages to be printed are printed, the pages with the relevance are selected from the pages; alternatively, before printing a plurality of pages, a page having a relationship may be selected, the selected page may be printed and bound, and thereafter, another page may be printed.

In this embodiment, after a plurality of pages to be printed are detected, a group of related pages can be determined, or a plurality of groups of related pages can be determined. For example, the plurality of pages to be printed includes pages a, b ….. h, detected, where a and b, b and c, c and d are related pages, and e and f, f and g, g and h are related pages. It can be determined that a, b, c, d are a set of pages with associations and e, f, g, h are a set of pages with associations. Each group of related pages may be bound separately, that is, 2 groups of related pages may be bound separately in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, a binding unit may be provided at the printout end of the printer, and after detecting that each set of related pages is completely output, the binding unit may be activated to bind the printed related pages. In other states, the binding portion is in the sleep mode.

In the related art, after a user prints a document by using a printer, in order to avoid loss of the printed paper document, the printed document is often bound manually, so that the printed document is convenient to store and refer. However, if the number of documents is large, the user often performs manual binding, and the situations of wrong binding and missed binding often occur, so that the working efficiency and the binding reliability are low, in order to effectively improve the working efficiency and the binding reliability, the relevance of each page in a plurality of pages to be printed by the printer is automatically detected, and then the printed pages with the relevance are bound based on the detected relevance without manual binding by the user, so that the working efficiency and the binding reliability are effectively improved.

In one embodiment, the step S102 may include the following sub-steps A1-A2:

in a1, it is detected whether a relevance element is included in every two pages of the plurality of pages.

In a2, two pages including the relevance element are determined as the pages having relevance.

In one embodiment, whether two pages of the multiple pages comprise continuous page numbers is detected, and the two pages comprising the continuous page numbers are determined to be related pages. As shown in fig. 2, the page number information of the lower part of the two pages in fig. 2 is detected by an image recognition method, the page number information of the first page is "page 4", the page number information of the second page is "page 5", and it is recognized that 4 and 5 are consecutive by a number recognition algorithm, so that it is determined that the two pages in fig. 2 include consecutive page numbers, that is, the two pages in fig. 2 are related pages.

In one embodiment, whether each two pages of the multiple pages comprise associated text content is detected, and each two pages comprising the associated text content are determined to be the associated pages. As shown in fig. 3, the text content at the lower part of the first page in fig. 3 is identified as "south africa of ormosia and several branches in spring coming" by an image identification method, the text content at the upper part of the second page in fig. 3 is identified as "many wisdom", which is the most thoughts of poetry "by spring", and then the preset database is used for searching for "south africa of ormosia and several branches in spring coming" and "many wisdom, so that it is determined that the two pages in fig. 3 include related text content, that is, the two pages in fig. 3 are related pages.

The identified text content can be uploaded to a server, and whether the identified text content is related or not can be searched by the server.

In one embodiment, whether each two pages of the multiple pages comprise related image information is detected, and each two pages comprising the related image information are determined to be related pages. As shown in fig. 4, a picture is printed on different pages, the image contents in the two printed pages are identified by an image identification method, and then whether the images in the two pages belong to the same picture is detected, and it is determined that the images in the two pages in fig. 4 belong to the same picture by the detection, that is, the two pages in fig. 4 include related image information, and then it is determined that the two pages in fig. 4 are related pages.

It is to be noted that the image information includes at least one of image content, image color, or image shape.

In one embodiment, whether pages with the same size information are included in every two pages of the multiple pages is detected, and the pages with the same size information are determined to be related pages. By acquiring the size information of each page in a plurality of pages to be printed, when the size information of two pages is detected to be the same, the two pages are determined to be related pages.

In one embodiment, whether pages with the same font information are included in every two pages of the multiple pages is detected, and the pages with the same font information are determined to be related pages. By acquiring the font information of each page in a plurality of pages to be printed, when the font information of two pages is detected to be the same, the two pages are determined to be related pages.

In one embodiment, whether pages with the same file type are included in every two pages of the multiple pages is detected, and the pages with the same file type are determined to be related pages. By obtaining the file type (such as word or PDF) of the file where each page in a plurality of pages to be printed is located, when the file types of the files where two pages are located are detected to be the same, the two pages are determined to be related pages.

For example: when a plurality of pages to be printed are contents in an electronic document, if a user prints a word document, the electronic document has 8 pages of contents, and because all the contents are from the electronic document, the 8 pages are acquiescent with the relevance; when a plurality of pages to be printed are different file types (for example, 30 pictures in Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Format and 20 documents in Portable Document Format (PDF) Format are printed), the 30 documents in the JPG Format are determined to be related pages, the 20 documents in the PDF Format are determined to be related pages, and then the 30 pictures of the JPG are bound into a book, and the 20 documents in the PDF Format are bound into a book.

It should be noted that, in actual implementation, whether a plurality of pages include a page with a relationship may be detected through any of the above implementation manners; or whether the multiple pages comprise the pages with the relevance or not can be detected by combining any two implementation modes; or may be implemented by combining three or more implementations as detecting whether a page having an association is included in the plurality of pages.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can have the following beneficial effects: detecting whether each two pages of the multiple pages comprise relevance elements; and then, determining that every two pages comprising the relevance elements are pages with relevance, and detecting whether the pages have relevance through the preset relevance elements, so that the reliability of determining the relevance pages is effectively improved.

In one embodiment, the step of determining that two pages including an association element are related pages comprises the following sub-steps B1-B2:

in B1, the number of kinds of the relevance elements included in two pages of the plurality of pages is detected.

In B2, two pages including the association elements whose number of types is greater than the preset number are determined as the pages having the association.

In order to improve the binding reliability, two pages may be determined to be related pages when multiple types of association elements are included in the two pages at the same time.

The preset number can be preset or can be set by a user, and the preset number is not limited in the disclosure.

For example, in order to effectively count the number of types of association elements included in two pages, the association may be represented by a hierarchical classification (e.g., 0-10 points) from no association to complete association, an association score is set for each type of association element, and when the association score reaches a preset value, for example, 4 points (a specific score may be set according to user needs), it may be determined that a page is associated.

For example: the relevance element correspondence relevance score may be as follows:

① pages with the same size information (e.g., all A4 paper size) -corresponding to 2 points;

② page with same font information (for example, 'Hongdong south China' font size is consistent with 'wish you pick up more' font size) — corresponding to 2 points;

③ relevance of image information (e.g. all black) -corresponding to 2 points;

④ consecutive page numbers — corresponding to 2 points;

⑤ the printing parameters are consistent (for example, the parameters of the printer are set to be positive and negative printing, photo paper printing, high-quality printing and the like) -corresponding to 2 points.

Continuing to follow the above example, when detecting the continuous page numbers in the two pages, the association scores of the two pages are 2 scores, when continuously detecting that the font information in the two pages is the same, the association scores of the two pages are accumulated to 4 scores, when continuously detecting that the size information in the two pages is the same, the association scores of the two pages are accumulated to 6 scores, and when the 6 scores are greater than the preset value of 4 scores, determining that the two pages are related pages.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can have the following beneficial effects: when the two pages with the types and the number of the relevance elements in every two of the multiple pages larger than the preset number are detected as the relevant pages, the reliability of the relevance page determination is effectively improved.

In one embodiment, detecting whether a relevance element is included in a pairwise page of the plurality of pages may include the following sub-steps C1-C2:

in C1, the initial page arrangement order when the plurality of pages are transferred to the printer is determined.

In C2, it is sequentially detected whether the two pages adjacent to each other before and after include the relevance element according to the initial page arrangement order.

In order to reliably judge the relevance of a plurality of pages to be printed, whether relevance elements are included in two adjacent pages in front and back is sequentially detected according to the initial page arrangement sequence.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can have the following beneficial effects: according to the initial page arrangement sequence, the accuracy of judging the relevance of the multiple pages to be printed can be improved, and the detection efficiency is improved.

In one embodiment, the association can also be marked and set in advance, the association between the designated page of the printing document and the designated page number is set in advance before printing, and the association sequence is set. The automatic binding function is started after the print job is executed.

For example: the content of 1-8 pages in a Word document is provided, a user designates 1, 3, 5 and 7 odd pages as a binding page in advance, 2, 4, 6 and 8 even pages as a binding page, and after a printing task is executed, the odd pages are bound into a book, the even pages are bound into a book, and the book is a total of two books.

In one embodiment, the document to be printed may also be printed directly, and then bound according to the relevance of each identified page.

For example: when printing a continuous 1-8 pages document, setting the printing task to be 2-1-5-4-3-6-8-7 instead of the correct page number sequence, when executing the printing task, the printer automatically recognizes the relevance of the 8 pages, then prints according to the sequence of 2-1-5-4-3-6-8-7, and after printing, binds according to the relevant sequence of 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 pages.

However, if the binding process is complicated when the document is printed and binding is performed according to the identified association of each page, in one embodiment, the step S103 may include the following substeps D1-D2:

in D1, the pages with the association are printed in the order of association.

In D2, the pages having the relationship are bound by the binding unit in the order of printing.

The pages with the relevance are printed according to the identified relevance in the relevant sequence, and then the pages with the relevance are bound by the binding part in the printed sequence.

For example: when printing a continuous 1-8 page document, the correct page number order is not set but set to 2-1-5-4-3-6-8-7 when setting a print job, and when executing the print job, the printer automatically recognizes the relevance of the 8 pages, prints the 8 pages in the relevant order 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 pages, and then performs binding.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can have the following beneficial effects: the pages with the relevance are printed according to the relevant sequence, and then the pages with the relevance are bound through the binding part according to the printed sequence, so that the binding efficiency is effectively improved.

The implementation is described in detail below by way of several embodiments.
