Description

影像複製方法以及使用該方法之事務機與文件處理系統 Image copying method and transaction machine and file processing system using the same

本發明是有關於一種影像複製方法,且特別是有關於一種透過一台外接的掃描器進行影像複製的方法及使用該方法之事務機與文件處理系統。 The present invention relates to an image copying method, and more particularly to a method for image copying through an external scanner and a transaction machine and a file processing system using the same.

在辦公室中,一台多功能事務機(Multi-Function Printer,MFP)可以獨立完成掃描、列印、複印以及傳真等功能,不需要透過電腦,就可以處理文件影像以及提供各種影像輸出。然而,多功能事務機內部的掃描器,通常為一平台式掃描器,可以掃描單張的文件,但也有許多限制與不便。例如,不能在一次掃描中同時掃文件的雙面,並且掃描複數的原稿要使用者手動反覆執行開啟、閉合掀蓋的繁瑣動作,同時也不適合掃描部分種類的原稿,像是硬卡、書籍或是X光片等。目前有些多功能事務機具有U形自動饋紙裝置(Automatic Document Feeder,ADF),可以自動進紙、一次掃描單張文件的雙面,但仍然無法完全改善前述多功能事務機的缺點,例如仍無法掃描硬卡、無法自動掃描書 冊,也無法掃描底片、投影片或X光片等透明稿,並且U形自動饋紙裝置的價格相當昂貴。 In the office, a Multi-Function Printer (MFP) can perform functions such as scanning, printing, copying, and faxing independently. It can process file images and provide various image output without using a computer. However, the scanner inside the MFP is usually a flatbed scanner that can scan a single file, but there are many limitations and inconveniences. For example, it is not possible to scan both sides of a document in one scan at a time, and scanning a plurality of originals requires the user to manually perform the cumbersome action of opening and closing the lid, and is also not suitable for scanning some types of originals, such as hard cards, books, or It is an X-ray film, etc. At present, some multi-function machines have a U-shaped Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), which can automatically feed paper and scan both sides of a single document at a time, but still cannot completely improve the shortcomings of the aforementioned multi-function machine, for example, Unable to scan hard card, unable to scan book automatically It is also impossible to scan transparent documents such as negatives, transparencies or X-ray films, and the U-shaped automatic paper feeding device is quite expensive.

另一方面,市面上有許多專門用途的掃描器,例如卡片掃描器、書本掃描器以及負片掃描器等。但是這些掃描器通常僅提供掃描,若要對影像資料進行影像處理或以電子檔以外的形式輸出,例如發送電子郵件或列印,還是需要先連到一台電腦,因此複製影像並不方便。 On the other hand, there are many specialized scanners on the market, such as card scanners, book scanners, and negative scanners. However, these scanners usually only provide scanning. If image data is to be processed or outputted in an electronic format other than electronic files, such as sending an e-mail or printing, or connecting to a computer, copying the image is not convenient.

有鑑於此,為解決先前技術的問題,本發明之一目的為自動處理及複製各種類型原稿的影像,使用者不需透過電腦而能進行影像處理。 In view of the above, in order to solve the problems of the prior art, one of the objects of the present invention is to automatically process and copy images of various types of originals, and the user can perform image processing without using a computer.

第1圖為依據本發明第一實施例之影像複製方法流程圖。請參照第1圖,本發明之影像複製方法係用於一事務機。在步驟101中,一事務機電連接一外部的掃描器。電連接的方式可以為有線或無線,有線連接的方式例如是透過網路線或USB訊 號線傳輸,而無線連接的方式例如是透過Wi-Fi無線訊號傳輸或藍牙無線訊號傳輸。在步驟102中,事務機自外部的掃描器接收一原稿之一影像資料。接收的方式可以是由外部的掃描器主動發送影像資料;也可以由事務機主動偵測外部的掃描器上是否儲存影像資料,若有,則讀取該影像資料。亦可以是由外部的掃描器掃描原稿後,發出一提示訊息提示事務機讀取影像資料。在步驟103中,事務機將取得的影像資料處理成一最終資料。以及在步驟104中,事務機輸出最終資料。最終資料為一電子資料,可以以電子檔案、列印資料、電子郵件及傳真資料等至少一種的形式輸出。本發明的方法可作以下應用。事務機當接收到外部掃描器的影像資料時,即自動處理將其處理成具有一預設輸出格式的最終資料或者自動以一預設輸出方式輸出該最終資料。使用者不需要於每次執行作業時都要重新設定。 1 is a flow chart of an image copying method according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the image copying method of the present invention is applied to a transaction machine. In step 101, a transaction is electrically coupled to an external scanner. The electrical connection can be wired or wireless, and the wired connection is, for example, via a network route or a USB message. The line is transmitted, and the way of the wireless connection is, for example, transmission via Wi-Fi wireless signal or Bluetooth wireless signal. In step 102, the transaction machine receives an image of an original from an external scanner. The receiving method may be that the image data is actively sent by an external scanner, or the transaction machine can actively detect whether the image data is stored on the external scanner, and if so, the image data is read. Alternatively, after the original is scanned by an external scanner, a prompt message is sent to prompt the transaction machine to read the image data. In step 103, the transaction machine processes the acquired image data into a final data. And in step 104, the transaction machine outputs the final data. The final data is an electronic material that can be exported in at least one of electronic file, printed material, email and fax data. The method of the present invention can be applied as follows. When receiving the image data of the external scanner, the transaction machine automatically processes the final data into a preset output format or automatically outputs the final data in a preset output manner. The user does not need to reset it each time the job is executed.

第2圖為依據本發明較佳實施例之事務機及文件處 理系統之功能方塊圖。請參照第2圖,文件處理系統包含事務機20和外部的掃描器30。事務機20例如是多功能事務機,其包含掃描、列印、傳真及收發電子郵件等至少部分或全部功能,並本身可包含一內部的掃描器25。但單一台內部的掃描器並無法掃描各種類型的原稿,故文件處理系統尚包含與事務機20電連接之一外部的掃描器30,可依需求替換成不同種類的掃描器,以不受限制地掃描各種原稿。外部的掃描器30獨立於事務機20設置。 外部的掃描器30掃描一原稿S產生一影像資料IM。事務機20透過與外部的掃描器30電連接,接收到影像資料IM並進行後續影像處理,其接收方式如同前段所敘述。外部的掃描器30可掃 描那些無法在事務機20上掃描、或不方便掃描的原稿文件。例如雙面掃描器可以一次掃描原稿的雙面、饋紙式掃描器可自動進紙掃描大量紙張、書本掃描器可掃描裝訂的書本並翻頁,以及負片掃描器可掃負片等透明片等等。藉由與外部的掃描器30電連接,使原本不容易在事務機20上進行影像複製的原稿S,得以產生複製影像並處理成一最終資料RD輸出。事務機20亦可因應不同的需求同時電連接複數台外部的掃描器。 Figure 2 is a transaction machine and documentation office in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Functional block diagram of the system. Referring to FIG. 2, the file processing system includes a transaction machine 20 and an external scanner 30. Transaction machine 20 is, for example, a multifunction printer that includes at least some or all of the functions of scanning, printing, faxing, and transceiving e-mail, and may itself include an internal scanner 25. However, a single internal scanner cannot scan various types of originals, so the file processing system also includes an external scanner 30 that is electrically connected to the transaction machine 20, and can be replaced with different types of scanners as needed, without limitation. Scan various originals. The external scanner 30 is set independently of the transaction machine 20. The external scanner 30 scans an original S to generate an image data IM. The transaction machine 20 is electrically connected to the external scanner 30, receives the image data IM and performs subsequent image processing, and the receiving manner is as described in the previous paragraph. External scanner 30 can sweep An original document that cannot be scanned on the transaction machine 20 or is inconvenient to scan is described. For example, the duplex scanner can scan the double side of the original at one time, the paper-feed scanner can automatically feed a large amount of paper, the book scanner can scan the bound book and turn the page, and the negative scanner can scan the negative film such as the negative film. and many more. By electrically connecting to the external scanner 30, the original S which is not easily image-capable on the transaction machine 20 can be copied and processed into a final data RD output. The transaction machine 20 can also electrically connect a plurality of external scanners in response to different demands.

如第2圖所示,事務機20包括一影像處理器21、 一控制器22、一輸出模組23以及一連接介面24。控制器22電連接影像處理器21以及輸出模組23。影像處理器21將影像資料IM處理成最終資料RD。輸出模組23用以輸出最終資料RD。輸出模組23可以例如是列印引擎、傳真數據機、網路通訊模組以及卸除式儲存裝置控制器等單功能或多功能模組,將最終資料RD以列印、傳真、發送電子郵件,或傳送至USB大量儲存裝置或網路伺服器等方式輸出。連接介面24係用以連接外部的掃描器30。 本實施例之外部的掃描器30僅負責掃描原稿S與發送影像資料IM,實際上仍由事務機20進行影像資料IM處理以及輸出等工作。事務機20並可選擇電連接適當的外部的掃描器30,或切換外部的掃描器30與內部的掃描器25,以完成工作。 As shown in FIG. 2, the transaction machine 20 includes an image processor 21, A controller 22, an output module 23 and a connection interface 24. The controller 22 is electrically connected to the image processor 21 and the output module 23. The image processor 21 processes the image data IM into the final data RD. The output module 23 is used to output the final data RD. The output module 23 can be a single function or a multi-function module such as a print engine, a fax data machine, a network communication module, and a removable storage device controller, and print, fax, and send the final data RD. Or output to a USB mass storage device or a network server. The connection interface 24 is used to connect to the external scanner 30. The external scanner 30 of the present embodiment is only responsible for scanning the original S and transmitting the image data IM, and actually still performs the processing of the image data IM and the output by the transaction machine 20. The transaction machine 20 can optionally be electrically coupled to an appropriate external scanner 30, or to switch the external scanner 30 to the internal scanner 25 to complete the operation.

請同時參照第1圖與第2圖,於本實施例影像複製 方法之步驟103中,事務機20之影像處理器21亦可依據影像資料IM之屬性、外部的掃描器30之規格或身分、外部的掃描器30所連接的連接埠,或者依據來自外部掃描器30的設定訊息ST,將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之最終資料RD。 Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 simultaneously, and copy the image in this embodiment. In step 103 of the method, the image processor 21 of the transaction machine 20 may also be based on the attribute of the image data IM, the specification or identity of the external scanner 30, the connection port connected to the external scanner 30, or according to an external scanner. The setting message ST of 30 processes the image material IM into the final data RD having a specified output format.

於本實施例中,輸出格式指的是頁面排版樣式,並 且頁面不限定是實體的資料或電子檔案。屬性指的是影像資料IM本身帶有的性質,例如影像尺寸大小、形狀樣式,或顏色的黑白、彩色、深淺等等。第3圖為依據本發明影像複製方法所產生之最終資料示意圖。舉例來說,事務機20被預設為將具有卡片尺寸的影像資料處理成2合一(2-in-1)、100%比例輸出格式的最終資料RD;因此,若經計算影像資料IM具有卡片尺寸(92mmx56mm)的頁面資料,且包含正反兩面影像,影像處理器21則將影像資料IM處理成具有2合一(2-in-1)、100%比例輸出格式的最終資料RD,將卡片正反面影像放在同一輸出頁面上,如第3圖所示。 In this embodiment, the output format refers to a page layout style, and And the page is not limited to an entity's data or electronic file. Attributes refer to the nature of the image data IM itself, such as image size, shape, or color, black and white, color, shade, and so on. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the final data generated by the image reproduction method according to the present invention. For example, the transaction machine 20 is preset to process the image data having the card size into the 2-in-1 (2-in-1), 100% proportional output format final data RD; therefore, if the calculated image data IM has Card size (92mm x 56mm) page data, including both front and back images, image processor 21 will process the image data IM into a 2-in-1 (2-in-1), 100% ratio output format final data RD, will The front and back images of the card are placed on the same output page, as shown in Figure 3.

影像處理器21亦可依據外部的掃描器30之規格, 將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之最終資料RD。例如,外部的掃描器30為一卡片掃描器時,影像處理器21將影像資料IM處理成具有2合一輸出格式的最終資料RD,如第3圖所示。第4圖為依據本發明影像複製方法所產生之另一最終資料示意圖。如第4圖所示,外部的掃描器30為一書本掃描器時,影像處理器21自動修正影像資料IM各頁面的頂底方向,將各頁面影像資料IM處理成一致定向(Same Top-to-Bottom Orientation)的最終資料RD。 The image processor 21 can also be based on the specifications of the external scanner 30. The image data IM is processed into a final data RD having a specified output format. For example, when the external scanner 30 is a card scanner, the image processor 21 processes the image data IM into a final data RD having a 2-in-1 output format, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 is a diagram showing another final data generated by the image copying method according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, when the external scanner 30 is a book scanner, the image processor 21 automatically corrects the top and bottom directions of each page of the image data IM, and processes the image data of each page into a uniform orientation (Same Top- The final data RD of to-Bottom Orientation).

影像處理器21亦可依據外部的掃描器30的身分, 將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之最終資料RD。其機制說明如下。由於硬體裝置都有特殊的識別碼ID,可以再分為幾種不同的類型,例如廠商ID、裝置ID、或型號ID等等。控制器22識別外部的掃描器30的識別碼ID,以識別其身分。影像處理 器21再依據其身分,將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之最終資料RD。事務機20可事先設定哪一種身分對應哪一種指定的輸出格式。例如控制器22識別外部的掃描器30為A廠牌之B型號掃描器,則影像處理器21依據事務機20已儲存的相關裝置資料,將影像資料IM處理成具有最佳化輸出格式的最終資料RD。 The image processor 21 can also be based on the identity of the external scanner 30. The image data IM is processed into a final data RD having a specified output format. The mechanism is described below. Since the hardware device has a special identification code ID, it can be further divided into several different types, such as a manufacturer ID, a device ID, or a model ID. The controller 22 identifies the identification code ID of the external scanner 30 to identify its identity. Image processing The device 21 then processes the image data IM into a final data RD having a specified output format according to its identity. The transaction machine 20 can set in advance which identity corresponds to which of the specified output formats. For example, if the controller 22 recognizes that the external scanner 30 is a B-type scanner of the A-brand, the image processor 21 processes the image data IM into an image with an optimized output format according to the related device data stored by the transaction machine 20. Information RD.

如第2圖所示,連接介面24包括一專用裝置連接埠 24A以及一通用裝置連接埠24B。當外部的掃描器30連接至專用裝置連接埠24A時,影像處理器21自動將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之最終資料RD。專用裝置連接埠24A和通用裝置連接埠24B可以例如是USB連接埠、並列埠或其他連接介面。事務機20可事先設定哪一個連接埠為專用裝置連接埠,並對應哪一種指定的輸出格式。另一方面,如果外部的掃描器30透過通用裝置連接埠24B連接事務機20,事務機20並不會自動處理影像資料IM;若使用者欲讓事務機20處理影像資料IM並/或輸出一最終資料,則可至事務機20的一操作平台手動選取要處理的影像資料IM以及指定對該影像資料IM的處理、輸出方式。 As shown in FIG. 2, the connection interface 24 includes a dedicated device port. 24A and a general purpose device port 24B. When the external scanner 30 is connected to the dedicated device port 24A, the image processor 21 automatically processes the image data IM into the final data RD having a specified output format. The dedicated device port 24A and the universal device port 24B may be, for example, a USB port, a parallel port or other connection interface. The transaction machine 20 can set which connection port is a dedicated device port in advance, and which one of the specified output formats corresponds to. On the other hand, if the external scanner 30 is connected to the transaction machine 20 through the universal device connection 24B, the transaction machine 20 does not automatically process the image data IM; if the user wants the transaction machine 20 to process the image data IM and/or output one The final data can be manually selected from an operation platform of the transaction machine 20 to manually select the image data IM to be processed and specify the processing and output mode of the image data IM.

再者,事務機20除了自外部的掃描器30接收原稿 S的影像資料IM外,尚接收一設定訊息ST。影像處理器21可依據設定訊息ST,將影像資料IM處理成具有一指定輸出格式之該最終資料RD。設定訊息ST包含指示事務機20如何處理影像資料IM的指令和參數設定,但並不以此為限。例如,外部的掃描器30可在掃描原稿S後,發送影像資料IM與設定訊息ST至事 務機20,設定訊息ST包含指示事務機20將影像資料IM處理成電子郵件輸出格式的指令。影像處理器21則依據設定訊息ST將影像資料IM處理成具有電子郵件輸出格式之最終資料RD。 Furthermore, the transaction machine 20 receives the originals in addition to the scanner 30 from the outside. In addition to the image data IM of S, a setting message ST is received. The image processor 21 can process the image data IM into the final data RD having a specified output format according to the setting message ST. The setting message ST contains instructions and parameter settings indicating how the transaction machine 20 processes the image data IM, but is not limited thereto. For example, the external scanner 30 can send the image data IM and the setting message ST after scanning the original S. The service message 20 includes an instruction to instruct the transaction machine 20 to process the image material IM into an email output format. The image processor 21 processes the image data IM into the final data RD having the email output format according to the setting message ST.

第5圖為依據本發明第二實施例之影像複製方法流 程圖。在第5圖中,步驟501、502、503與第1圖中第一實施例之對應的步驟相同,步驟505也與步驟104相同。但增加步驟504,控制器22依據外部的掃描器30之規格,設定最終資料RD之一輸出方式。設定輸出方式包含設定例如輸出列印、發送傳真或電子郵件之方式。舉例來說,外部的掃描器30為一雙面掃描器時,控制器22設定最終資料RD之輸出方式為雙面列印,並指示輸出模組(列印引擎)23以雙面列印的方式輸出最終資料RD。 或者,外部的掃描器30為一書本掃描器時,控制器22設定最終資料RD之輸出方式為左右或上下翻頁的雙面列印,並指示輸出模組23據以輸出最終資料RD。又或者,外部的掃描器30為一透射稿掃描器時,控制器22設定最終資料RD之輸出方式為列印於一透明片上,並指示一饋紙機構饋入空白透明片以供最終資料RD被列印於其上。 Figure 5 is a flow chart of an image copying method according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Cheng Tu. In Fig. 5, steps 501, 502, and 503 are the same as the corresponding steps of the first embodiment in Fig. 1, and step 505 is also the same as step 104. However, in step 504, the controller 22 sets an output mode of the final data RD according to the specifications of the external scanner 30. Setting the output method includes setting the method such as output printing, sending a fax, or e-mail. For example, when the external scanner 30 is a double-sided scanner, the controller 22 sets the output mode of the final data RD to be double-sided printing, and instructs the output module (printing engine) 23 to print on both sides. The way to output the final data RD. Alternatively, when the external scanner 30 is a book scanner, the controller 22 sets the output mode of the final data RD to be double-sided printing of left and right or page up and down, and instructs the output module 23 to output the final data RD. Alternatively, when the external scanner 30 is a transmissive scanner, the controller 22 sets the output mode of the final data RD to be printed on a transparent sheet, and instructs a paper feeding mechanism to feed the blank transparent sheet for the final data RD. It is printed on it.

上述實施例所揭露之影像複製方法、事務機以及文 件處理系統,藉由電連接外部的掃描器來掃描事務機內部的掃描器不易掃描的一原稿並取得一影像資料。而事務機可進行外部的掃描器無法達成的影像處理與輸出最終資料的功能,並可依據各種方式將影像資料處理成具有一指定輸出格式及輸出方式的最終資料。因此,本發明結合事務機與外部的掃描器的優點,可以達到擴充功能及更便利的效果。此外,由於外接的掃描器具有可 變通性、方便移動、變更機型與使用上更靈活,可擴充事務機的機能。 Image copying method, transaction machine and text disclosed in the above embodiments The processing system scans an original that is not easily scanned by the scanner inside the transaction machine by electrically connecting an external scanner and acquires an image data.
