Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to make a preprinting paper and recording image information correspond to each other, by a method wherein the form printed on a paper is discriminated, and recording image inforation is selected. CONSTITUTION:Bars or the like according to the kind of form printed on a preprinting paper are detected by a detecting circuit 6, and are counted by a counter 8. The counted value and a pattern generated by a reference pattern generator 12 are compared with each other by a comparator 11, whereby the kind of the form is determined, and a data-editing circuit 17 is controlled in accordance with a form kind signal through an image information selecting circuit 15. Then, image information fed through a copy-reading part 21 and a data time storing memory 22 is edited, and recording image information is transferred to a recording part 19. By these operations, the preprinting paper and the recording image information can be made to correspond to each other, and misrecording or the like can be prevented from occurring.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a recording device that records image information on paper, such as a copying machine or a digital image information recording device.

(Prior art) hL! One way of using a recording head is to record image information using recording paper on which a form is printed in advance (hereinafter referred to as preprinted paper).

FIG. 1 shows an example of paper for preprint 1. FIG.

The print paper 1 shown in FIG. 1A is a paper for advertising the rental of an apartment, and the preprint paper 2 shown in FIG. 1B is a paper for advertising the purchase and sale of land. Both the character information 3 and the frame 4 are printed in a color different from the recording color of the recording device. Such preprinted sheets 1.2 are loaded into a recording device, and information on each real estate is recorded in the frame 4.

Now, it is assumed that a predetermined number of a plurality of types of preprint paper are prepared, and different image information is recorded (copied) on each of them.

In this case, the operator stacks the preprinted papers by type and sets them in the paper tray of the recording device. Then, set the number of sheets to be recorded on the device and place the original on pre-printed paper.
Then, set the document on the document table or move it to the automatic document feeder to start recording.

However, when recording using this method, (1) it takes a lot of effort to match the pre-printed paper and the manuscript (), and if a failure occurs, the paper after recording has to be discarded.

In addition, (11) If double feeding of Preprint 1 to paper occurs in the paper conveyance system of the recording device, it becomes impossible to record the predetermined number of sheets with that paper, and a different paper A-1 to be sent to the recording unit next
In some cases, the previous image information was recorded on the preprinted paper. Particularly in the case of the latter case of double feeding, the operator of the equipment is often concerned.As a result, the information recorded on the preprinted paper that is similar to C1 is distributed, resulting in a serious mistake. There is a risk of this occurring.
.

(Object of the Invention) In view of the above points, an object of the present invention is to provide a recording apparatus capable of associating preprint paper with image information to be recorded.

(Means for Achieving the Object) The present invention records a paper discriminating means for discriminating marks written on preprint paper according to form, and an image information selection means for selecting image information according to the discriminated form. The above-mentioned purpose is achieved by equipping the apparatus and recording selected image information on preprint paper.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to Examples.

(Embodiment) FIG. 2 is a diagram schematically showing a recording apparatus of this embodiment. This recording apparatus is equipped with a cover detection circuit 6 for determining the type of preprint paper. A detection signal 7 output from the detection circuit 6 is supplied to a counter 8, and the bars printed on the preprint paper are counted. The count (direction 9 is supplied to a comparator 11 and compared with the pattern signal 13 supplied from the matching pattern generator 12. The comparison result 14) is supplied to the Δ~m selection circuit 15 to select a form. It looks like this. A form selection signal 16 output from the image information selection circuit 15 is supplied to a data editing circuit 17.

The data 18 edited by the data editing circuit 17 is stored in the recording section 1
The image information is recorded on the preprint paper that is supplied to the preprint paper 9 and transported by light through the detection circuit 6. The data edited by the data editing circuit 17 is data 23 read from the original reading section 21 and once stored in the memory 22.

A case in which this recording device is used to create a delivery slip for gifts delivered to a department store will be specifically explained.

At a department store, when a customer requests delivery of a product,
Creating delivery slips. Delivery slips are ■Work slips used by delivery staff who take out and package products, ■Slips used as tags to be pasted on products to be shipped, and ■Small-scale slips that connect delivery centers and individual households. delivery office (
There are multiple related forms, such as work slips used in d3 at the warehouse, and slips used to obtain certification stamps to show that the product has been delivered to the customer. Consists of vouchers. In other words, when a department store receives a request to deliver a product, it processes the product based on a single set of processing data such as the product's name, delivery address, and requester.
1. Create multiple forms of delivery slips. Let's create this kind of delivery slip! In order to convert the document into a new document, this recording device electronically cuts and pastes the original document and creates delivery slips in various forms.

FIG. 3 shows an example of filling out the manuscript (gift purchase application N) used for this purpose.

The person requesting product delivery enters the address and name of the destination in the destination entry field 26 of the gift purchase application form 25, and enters the product name and number in the product entry field 27.

Also, enter your own address and name in the client entry column 28.

On the department store 1- side, enter the unit price of the product in the amount entry column 29, a3 J,
and the total amount. In this way, the manuscript is completed.

The completed manuscript is read by the manuscript reading section 21 of the recording device. Reading is performed for each of the entry fields 26 to 29, and the image information 31 thereof is written into corresponding areas in the memory 22 as digital signals subjected to rask conversion. Other documents on the same frame A are read in the same manner. Once the reading work for the gift purchase application form 25 has been completed, recording work (slip creation work) will be performed next.

FIG. 4 shows various types of preprint sheets 1 used for creating delivery slips. Of these, the figure (A> is the paper 32 to the preprint 1 for work slips, and the figure (13
) has 33C of pre-printed paper for pasting products. In addition, the same figure (C) shows the preprint paper 34 used for the depot, and the same figure (D) shows the role of the delivery note.
This is paper 35.

The operator loads these four sheets of preprinted paper as a set in the cart as many times as necessary, and feeds paper 1 to 1 (not shown) of the recording device.
Set it on the lei. At this time, sheets of the same type may be piled up together. When the preprint paper is placed on record 1, a recording start button (not shown) is pressed. As a result, the sheets 1 to 1 are sent out one by one from the paper feed tray, and first pass near the detection circuit 6.

FIG. 5 shows this situation. The preprinted papers 32 to 35 are conveyed one by one in the direction of the arrow and pass directly below the photodetecting element 6Δ of the detection circuit. Each prepudding 1
~The sheets have a bar 36 printed on their right edge.

The number of bars 36 is 32 to 35 for each preprinted paper.
Depending on the tree, there may be from 1 to 4 trees. When each of the preprint sheets 32 to 35 is transported in the width direction thereof, the photodetecting element 6A detects a change in the intensity of the light reflected by the bar 36. The binarization circuit 6B binarizes this at a predetermined threshold level to create a detection signal 7. The count value of the counter 8 is cleared when one sheet of preprint paper is sent out from the paper feed tray, and the counter 8 counts the detection signal 7 that is subsequently sent. Callan 1
The value 9 varies depending on each preprint paper 32 to 35, and takes values from 111 I+ to '4''.

The comparator 11G compares the pattern signal 13 and the current value. Here, the pattern signal 13 is a signal representing each numerical value.
When somewhat complicated patterns such as needles are printed, the verification pattern generator 12 outputs signals representing these patterns.

The image information selection circuit 15 determines the paper as preprint 1 based on the comparison result 14. For example, if the callan 1 value is '1'', it can be seen that the preprint paper 32 is the J form shown in FIG. The data editing circuit 17 is equipped with a counter that individually counts the sheets of each form, and determines that the first form selection signal that selects and overrides the three preprint sheets 32 has arrived. Edit the desired image information from the data corresponding to this.In other words, if the gift purchase application form 25 shown in Figure 3 is the first manuscript, this notification is in the first entry field 26. The address entered in the first field,
The name data is read from the memory 22 and recorded in the destination record column 38 of the pre-print paper 32 by the recording section 19. Next, the address and name data entered in the client entry field 28 are read out from the memory 22 and recorded in the client record field 39. FIG. 6 shows the delivery slip created in this manner. Recording can be performed by various methods such as an electrostatic method using a laser beam and a photosensitive drum, and a thermal method using a single multi-head.

When the first preprint paper 33 shown in FIG. 4(B) is sent out from the paper feeds 1 to 1, the data editing circuit 17 performs the same editing work to create a slip for pasting the product. When another preprint paper 34.35 is sent out,
The data regarding the product entry field 27 is also read out from the mail 22 and recorded in the product record field 41 of the preprint paper 34 or 35. If the second preprint form 32 is sent out, please fill in the address entry field 26.
The address and name data entered in the next column are stored in the memory 22.
The information will be read out and a slip will be created. When the third sheet of paper 32 is sent out, the data entered in the next gift purchase application form (1! f in the figure) will be read and recorded. The same applies below.

As described above, in the recording apparatus of this embodiment, the image information is organized according to the paper format I to the paper format I sent out from the paper feed tray, and the slip is created 11. Therefore, even if the preprinted paper is sent a small amount, or even if the preprinted paper is sent out of order,
Necessary records can be made.

In the J3 example, we decided to print a different number of bars on the paper for each form in order to distinguish the type of preprint paper, but we also decided to print a bar code to decipher the difference, or to change the color of the paper. It may be detected, or holes or sparks may be provided in the paper and these may be detected optically. Magnetic detection is also possible.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above in detail, the recording apparatus of the present invention performs recording while performing correspondence between image information to be recorded and preprint paper. Therefore, when double feeding of preprinted paper occurs, it is possible to easily determine how many sheets of which type of paper have occurred, which has the advantage of greatly simplifying the paper replenishment work.
