摘要:
In a thermal transfer printing method, the entire surface of a record medium is thermally coated with a layer of a colored material (to form a background color for an image to be subsequently thermally printed thereon). Images are thermally printed on the so-coated record medium using a thermal transfer process.

An electrical connector that can provide stable contact between a signal transmission terminal and a short-circuit terminal even if the connector is downsized. The connector includes a main body having a plurality of terminal receiving cavities provided with lances by which signal transmission terminals are secured and a plurality of short-circuit terminal receiving cavities adjacent to the terminal receiving cavities for receiving short-circuit terminals. Each short-circuit terminal includes a bent part at a forward position and a contact at a rearward position. The main body further includes a window that is formed at a position to the rear of the lances corresponding to the contacts of the short-circuit terminals and through which the terminal receiving cavities and the short-circuit terminal receiving cavities communicate with each other. The contacts of the short-circuit terminals are in contact with the female terminals through the window.

An operation support apparatus includes a display device (16) displaying a setting screen including an operating instruction information setting section in which operating instruction information related to the operating instruction is set and an applicable condition setting section having a menu for setting an applicable condition when notifying the operating instruction information. A CPU (11) selects one item from display items in the menu based on an operating input by a PD (14), and performs control to change and display display items in a lower menu below the menu depending on the selected item.

In an image forming apparatus, a developing device is disposed adjacent to a belt-like photosensitive member. A rotary type developing device has a hollow cylindrical casing rotatable around a shaft having a central portion for rotation. The developing device includes a casing which is rotated in a predetermined direction, and four partitions which divide the casing to make four developing units which extend radially outward from the shaft. A toner storing section or hopper is provided on one side of the developing device, i.e., on a front side of the image forming apparatus, and a toner cartridge is detachable from a top of the hopper, and the toner cartridge is exchanged when an end signal of the toner is detected by a sensor in the casing. The toner hopper is filled by new toner from the toner cartridge, and the toner is carried by conveyor members, which control an amount of the toner in the casing, and a supply roller supplies the toner to a developing roller. Therefore, the device supplies a required amount of toner to a toner supply roller and a developing roller at all times. This provides an image forming apparatus with a great freedom of layout which needs a minimum sectional space relative to a photoconductive element and which, therefore, has a miniature configuration. Also, if amounts of transport of first and second conveyor members are adequately selected, a uniform developer distribution in a longitudinal direction without resorting to a complicated control is insured.

In a color image forming apparatus, a latent image forming device selectively forms on a photoconductive element images respectively corresponding to images of particular colors and a position mark latent image representative of position information. A developing unit develops the latent images with developers of respective colors to thereby produce corresponding color images, and develops the position mark latent image to thereby produce a position mark. The color images are transferred to an intermediate transfer belt one above another and then transferred to a recording medium. The position mark is also transferred to the transfer belt to form a position information portion. A position information detecting device generates a detection signal on detecting the position information portion formed on the transfer belt. A starting device starts forming a latent image on the photoconductive element in response to the detection signal. The apparatus is capable of forming a high definition full-color image free from color displacements, and reducing the total printing time.

An electrical connector includes a frame, a connector main body received in the frame, a lock, a lock receiving part, and a releasing tool. The lock is formed on the frame or the connector main body, while the lock receiving part is formed on the other of the frame or the connector main body, corresponding with and engaging the lock. The releasing tool releases the lock that is engaged with the lock receiving part when the releasing tool is inserted the frame and the connector main body. The releasing tool disengages the lock and the lock receiving part when inserted in to the frame and connector main body, and then pushes the releasing tool receiving surface to separate the connector main body from the frame.
