System for combining heterogeneous image processing jobs into a single job
TLDR
In this article, a method of combining data sets of heterogeneous image formats, such as PDL's, is presented in a printing system, where a first image data set is translated by a coprocessor, using an interpretation code among many stored in memory.Abstract:
A method of combining data sets of heterogeneous image formats, such as PDL's. in a printing system. A first image data set is translated by a coprocessor, using an interpretation code among many stored in memory. In response to "end of job" data in the first image data set, the first image data set in a final image format is transferred to the memory, and a second image data set is transferred from the memory to the coprocessor. The image format of the second image data set is determined. An interpretation code for translating the second image data set is loaded into the coprocessor.read more
