Abstract

PURPOSE:To copy only the necessary originals when there is change in the content of the originals by providing a page number transferring part and a page number provision controlling part. CONSTITUTION:After the user selects a page number providing facility, position information for printing the page number, and information such as from which page the page number will be printed are inputted utilizing a user control panel. A character pattern of the page number is sequencially read from a character font memory part 9 by the page number provision controlling part 10, based on inputted parameter, transferred to the rotating drum through a page number transferring part 11, and the page number provision is carried out simultaneously with the copying action. The user can copy with a page number on the original by just setting the page number provision, and even when addition of page or deletion occurs, it becomes unnecessary to reform pages without any change, only copying originals needing renumbering of the page number.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to electronic copying devices.

[Conventional technology]

With conventional electronic copying devices, if you want to copy a document with page numbers attached, you can either write the page number directly on the document and then copy it, or you can print only the page number in advance and use paper. Methods such as photocopying must be used.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

With the above-mentioned conventional electronic copying device, if a method is used in which page numbers are written directly on the manuscript and then copied, if pages are added or deleted later due to changes in the manuscript content, it will be possible to add or delete pages without having to change them again. The disadvantage is that the manuscript must be rewritten down to the page. Furthermore, the method of using paper with page numbers prepared in advance requires mastering dozens or hundreds of sheets, which has the drawback of doubling the effort required for copying.

[Means to solve the problem]

The present invention includes a document reading unit that reads an image of a document, a rotating drum unit that forms a static image of the image read by the document reading unit, and a printing unit that transfers the static image of the rotating drum unit onto paper. a page number transfer unit that applies a static image of a page number to the rotating drum; and a page number assignment control that controls setting of the page number and transfer by the page number transfer unit. It consists of:

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an electronic copying apparatus with a page numbering function according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, an electronic copying device 1 with a page numbering function
consists of an electronic copying section 2 and a page numbering section 3. The electronic copying section 2 is almost the same as a conventional electronic copying device, and includes a document reading section 7 that reads an image of a document, and a rotating drum section 8 that forms an image of the image read by the document reading section 7 due to static electricity. , a printing section 6 that transfers an image onto a sheet of paper using a static image on a rotating drum section 8, a control section 4 that controls these, and a user operation section. The page numbering section 3 includes a page numbering control section 10 that controls the entire page numbering function, a character font storage section 9 that stores the character font of the page number, and a rotating drum that stores character patterns obtained from the character fonts. The page number transfer section 11 transfers the presence or absence of an incidental charge to the section 8.

Next, the operation will be explained. After the user selects the page numbering function, the user uses the user operation unit 5 to input information regarding the position for printing the page number and information such as from which page the page number should be printed. Based on the input parameters, the page numbering control unit 10 sequentially reads out the character pattern of the page number from the character font storage unit 9, transfers it to the rotating drum 8 through the page number transfer unit 11, and performs the copying operation to assign the page number. Do it at the same time.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention has the advantage that a user can copy a document with page numbers attached simply by setting the page number assignment.

As a result, even if pages are added or deleted later due to a change in the content of the manuscript, there is no need to recreate the manuscript again for the pages that have not been changed, and only the manuscript that needs to be renumbered can be copied. It also has the effect of being finished.
