摘要:
This invention has as its object to control a peripheral device by selecting optimal processing even when the version of the OS of an information processing apparatus is updated and when the version of firmware of the peripheral device is updated. To this end, according to this invention, the version information of the OS of an information processing apparatus, that of firmware of a printer, and that of a printer driver are acquired. A control method that acquires status information of the printer is set according to the acquired information.

A server stores facility information about a plurality of facilities to be searched for, in association with categories representing the facilities, and performs a search to determine whether or not each category contains any facility located within a predetermined area including the search point. A navigation system displays, based on search results from the server, the categories serving as search conditions in a manner such that whether or not there is any facility within each category is identifiable. For example, an image representing a category may be set not to be displayed when there is no facility within the category. Thus, based on the display status of each category, the user can identify whether or not there is any facility within each category at the time when categories to be searched are displayed.

A biaxially stretched polyester film for forming a container, characterized by being formed of a polyester substantially consisting of an ethylene terephthalate unit and an ethylene naphthalate unit, the refractive index in the direction of thickness of the film being 1.5 or greater. This film is not only excellent in the formability during formation into cans or the like, but has excellent properties in taste property, particularly, the taste property after the retorting, and may be suitably used for containers produced by forming process and, particularly, for metallic cans.

A housing of a multi-path joint is divided into a plurality of blocks in correspondence with the number of lead-in ports, and a reverse-stop valve for preventing mixed fluid in the main path from flowing backward is provided between the lead-in ports and the main path. Each of the plurality of blocks formed by dividing the housing is provided with a connecting section for positioning when joining to adjacent blocks, and a holding unit is provided for connecting all the blocks in their respective connecting sections and maintaining a connected state between them. According to this multi-path joint, mixed fluid which flowing along the main path, does not flow backward to lead-in ports, and therefore, the atmosphere in the lead-in ports is stabilized. In addition, the multi-path joint is highly functional, being speedily adaptable to the number and shape of the paths on the lead-in port side.
摘要:
A method used in first and second information processing apparatuses in communication with an image forming apparatus. The method includes a transfer step of transferring print setting information for controlling the image forming apparatus from the image forming apparatus to the second information processing apparatus, an acquisition step of acquiring the print setting information transferred in the transfer step from the second information processing apparatus, an input step of inputting the print setting information acquired in the acquisition step into a printer driver in a form that can be identified by the printer driver; and a print control step of controlling a printing operation by using the print setting information inputted in the input step.

A power supply device for a communication apparatus includes a main power supply for supplying electric power to respective units of a communication apparatus main body, a main power supply control unit for ON/OFF-controlling the main power supply, and a battery for supplying electric power to the main power supply control unit. When the main power supply is ON, the main power supply control unit receives power supply from the main power supply. When the main power supply is OFF, the main power supply control unit receives power supply from the battery.

In a circuit formed with a resistor 32, connection terminals 28 and 23, a resistor 25, and connection terminals 24 and 29 all of which are shown in FIG. 3, when a one-chip microcomputer 21 shown in FIG. 1 inputs a high-level SCAN signal, a high- or low-level SENSE signal is generated according to the mounting state of an ink cartridge 33. When the ink cartridge 33 is mounted, a low-level SENSE signal is generated in response to a high-level SCAN signal. When the ink cartridge 33 is not mounted, a high-level SENSE signal is generated in response to a high-level SCAN signal. The one-chip microcomputer 21 monitors the mounting state of the ink cartridge 33 by detecting the level of a SENSE signal in order to prevent unnecessary initialization operations for the head of the ink cartridge so as not to reduce the number of sheets available for recording and not to increase running costs.
