printer controller 24 and the like processing, thus the
CPU generalizes and controls the whole system.
The examiner additionally relies upon col. 7, lines 48-55, which
recites that:
First, the CPU 22 (FIG. 5) feeds a command having
such meaning that converts a prescribed number of
element information beginning with a specified address
in the element memory 23 into raster information to an
instruction register 25b of the image processor 25
whereby the image processor 25 starts conversion
processing of a series of element information into
raster information.
From this disclosure of Suzuki, we find that CPU 22 controls
operations of the respective devices in accordance with a
predetermined program. Targets of the control include
"processing for converting element information into raster
information by means of the image processor 25" (col. 5, lines
51-53). We further find that CPU 22 feeds commands for
converting a prescribed number of element information beginning
with a specified address in the element memory 23 “into raster
information to an instruction register 25b of the image processor
25, whereby the image processor 25 starts conversion processing
of a series of element information into raster information"
(col.7, lines 51-55).
From these disclosures of Suzuki, we find that although CPU
22 controls the whole system, and feeds commands for the
