摘要:
Corresponding to kinds of respective fibers forming of a cloth, a masking coefficient is selected in a masking coefficient storage memory. A masking coefficient is synthesized depending upon a ratio of respective fibers forming the cloth. By this, a masking coefficient is optimized as image processing parameter and thus appropriate color development characteristics can be attained in printing on a mixed fiber cloth or so forth.

A recording apparatus includes an ink jet recording head having plural ejection outlets and thermal energy generating elements provided for the respective ejection outlets; a limiter for defining a using range of the heat generating elements in accordance with image forming conditions, a recording head driver for supplying to the heat generating elements outside the using range defined by the limiter driving signals insufficient to eject the ink and for supplying to the heat generating elements in the using range defined by the limiter a driving signal sufficient to eject the ink in accordance with an image signal.
摘要:
A recording apparatus for recording an image, by a recording device, on a recording medium having been conveyed to a position opposite to the recording device. The apparatus comprises a conveyor for conveying the recording medium to a recording region where a platen is disposed, a detector for detecting a floating amount and/or a floating angle of the recording medium with respect to the platen, and a selector for selecting either a first mode to continue the recording operation by varying the distance between the recording device and the recording medium in accordance with the detected result of the detector or a second mode to stop the recording operation. According to such a recording apparatus, it is possible to perform a high-quality recording operation since the distance between the recording head and the recording medium can be kept optimum.

Disclosed in an ink jet recording apparatus capable of providing high quality images in a stable manner for image signals of different transfer rates. A detector detects the receiving rate of an image signal supplied to the ink jet recording apparatus, and at least one of driving voltage, driving current, pulse duration, driving frequency and driving signal wave form is modified according to the detected receiving rate of the image signal.

In an electromagnetic valve, the fixed core of a solenoid has an axially extending annular wall at one end. The movable core of the solenoid is connected to a poppet for closing a fluid passage of a valve seat member and is fittable in the recess defined by the annular wall. The magnetic flux flow path including the annular wall provides reduced hysteresis for the initial part of the stroke of the poppet upon energization of the solenoid.
摘要:
Demands have arisen for a vibrating knife such as a biometrical ultrasonic knife which can easily obtain sharp cut surfaces with little possibility of contamination and the like. In order to meet the demands, the excision portion of a vibrating knife such as a biometrical ultrasonic knife which is brought into contact with an excision target such as living body tissue and vibrated in a direction at an angle to the traveling direction in excision so as to excise the target is coated such that the surface of the portion located on the forward side in the traveling direction in excision becomes hydrophobic, and the surface of the portion located on the backward side in the traveling direction in excision becomes hydrophilic.

An image recording apparatus records an image on a recording medium by causing a recording head having an arrangement of a plurality of recording elements to conduct its main scanning for the recording medium interrelatedly in the direction opposite to the arrangement of the recording elements. The apparatus comprises a setting device to set the number of main scannings by the recording head; a main scanning device to perform recording by plural numbers of main scannings with respect to one pixel by causing the recording head to conduct its main scannings for the same recording area of the recording medium in accordance with the number set by the setting device; and a sub-scanning device to cause the recording head and the recording medium to be sub-scanned interrelatedly per main scanning in an amount smaller than the width of the arrangement of the recording elements of the recording head. Hence, even if a disabled ejection occurs in one scanning at the time of recording by a multi-scanning, the missing dot is complemented by the following scan to make it possible to obtain an image having no image defects at all times.

An optical encoder has a light irradiating device; an optical scale having a grating for transmitting or reflecting incident light; light-receiving elements disposed in a plurality of different directions; and an optical system for amplitude-modulating light traveling from the light irradiating device to the optical scale and transmitted or reflected by the grating, by a dividing element in which a plurality of V-shaped grooves are juxtaposed, and for dividing the amplitude-modulated light into beams along a plurality of different directions to guide the beams to the respective light-receiving elements. The dividing element is comprised of repetitions of such structure that a plurality of V-grooves consisting of planes of mutually different angles are juxtaposed at a predetermined pitch.
摘要:
A printing apparatus and a print control method which detect a defective printing element in operation failure status while reciprocate-scanning a printhead, and perform appropriate print control such as complementary printing on an unprinted portion by the defective printing element, without reducing the printing speed. An apparatus, to which the method is applied, has a photosensor 8, to detect ink discharge statuses of a plurality of nozzles of a printhead 5, which is provided between a home position of the printhead and the outside of an effective printing area where image printing is to be made. While the printhead 5 is scanned, test ink discharge is performed at the position of the photosensor 8, and the ink discharge statuses of the nozzles are detected by the photosensor 8. A corrector 123 analyzes the operation statuses of the nozzles of the printhead 5 based on the results of detection in a real time manner. A CPU 25 performs print control based on the results of analysis.
