ABSTRACT:
A CPU converts data received from a host device into binary image data and compresses the data, and thereafter writes the compressed data into an image buffer in a RAM. In this compression, a method is employed in which, in a manner similar to the Huffman code compression method, an attention-directed byte is compressed on the basis of a correlation between the byte and a preceding byte. The compressed image data are DMA-transferred to a reconstruction/smoothing circuit. The reconstruction/smoothing circuit is configured by adding logic circuits for reconstruction to a smoothing circuit known in the conventional device, and reconstructs the compressed data by using a circuit which is in the smoothing circuit and which holds a preceding byte, or by referencing the held preceding byte.
