Abstract:
A method of rapidly creating an image from a document is disclosed. Image data derived from a document is received at an imaging device. It is then determined whether the image data is in an image-ready format that can be directly processed by a marking engine. If the image data is in an image-ready format, it is transmitted to the marking engine to create an image. If it is not in an image-ready format, the image data is converted to a proper format. The image data is transmitted to the marking engine. If the image data is spooled to a nonvolatile storage device, the spooling takes place only after or concurrent with transmission of the image data to the marking engine such that creation of the image is not delayed by this spooling process.
