Abstract:
A method of processing a direct positive silver halide photographic light-sensitive material which comprises processing a direct positive silver halide photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support having coated thereon at least one hydrophilic colloid layer containing a compound represented by the following general formula (I):R.sup.1 NHNHCOR.sup.2 (I)wherein R.sup.1 represents an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group; and R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, with a developing solution containing not less than 25 g per liter of a hydroquinone and having a pH of from 11.0 to 13.0. According to the processing method an excellent reversal photographic image can be obtained using a high pH type developing solution which is stable wherein a change of pH due to exhaustion and aerial oxidation is considerably small.
Abstract:
A direct positive silver halide sensitive material and a method of treating the material are disclosed. The method of treatment comprises providing an exposed direct positive silver halide sensitive material comprised of a base having thereon a compound represented by the general formula (I) and a sensitive silver halide photographic emulsion layer. The material is then developed in the presence of a compound represented by the general formula (II). ##STR1## the substituents within the general formula are defined in the specification. ##STR2## the substituents within this general formula are also defined in the specification. The use of the compounds represented by the general formulae (I) and (II) provide an image with improved sharpness and edge effect. Furthermore, the process can be carried out without substantial variations in the reversal property due to variations in the bromine ion concentration of the developing solution or the pH thereof.
Abstract:
A silver diffusion transfer photographic process using a silver halide photosensitive emulsion layer comprising silver iodochlorobromide or silver iodobromide wherein the iodide comprises from about 6 to 25 mole % of the halide content.
Abstract:
In order to allow any device to use a graphics device interface (GDI) driver without having to modify it once the GDI driver has been developed, the GDI driver is configured to create a spool format in a next-generation print path (NGPP) graphics engine specification and to convert drawing data in the spool format in the NGPP graphics engine specification into a page description language (PDL) by using an NGPP driver.
Abstract:
A detailed data storage apparatus creates, when a detailed data database that stores therein detailed data relatint to each stage of a process executed through multiple stages receives detailed data relating to a predetermined stage, forecast detailed data indicating contents predicted for a stage next to a predetermined stage and subsequent stages from the detailed data, and stores the forecast detailed data in the detailed data database. The apparatus includes an order holding unit that orders and holds the multiple stages; a determining unit that determines whether there is a stage immediately previous to the predetermined stage; and an offset detailed-data creating unit that creates offset detailed data including a content for offsetting the forecast detailed data created at the immediately previous stage when the determining unit determines that there is the immediately previous stage, so as to store the offset detailed data in the detailed data database.
Abstract:
A print server comprises: storage unit configured to store the print job of the intermediate format received from an information processing apparatus; setting change receiving unit configured to receive, from a printing apparatus, a print setting information change instruction for the print job of the intermediate format stored in the storage unit; update unit configured to update print setting information of the print job in accordance with the print setting information change instruction; print request receiving unit configured to receive a print request from the printing apparatus; and job transmission unit configured to generate a print job of a format printable by the printing apparatus based on the print job of the intermediate format and the print setting information updated in accordance with the print request, and to transmit the generated print job to the printing apparatus.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a filter cloth for a dust collector which shows low pressure loss, no clogging, superior dust shaking-off performance, and durability for continuous use without impairing collection performance, even under such dust collection conditions as high speed filtration and high dust concentration. The filter cloth for a dust collector relevant to the present invention is a filter cloth which is made by laminating and integrating a filtration layer of a nonwoven fabric layer consisting of a thermoplastic fiber and a support layer consisting of a woven fabric layer, characterized in that at least filtration surface layer of said laminated and integrated filter cloth has a concave-convex shape having a height from hill part to trough part of 1.6 to 20.0 mm.
Abstract:
A printing control apparatus is provided which can produce an appropriate copy-forgery-inhibited pattern image by adding a monochrome copy-forgery-inhibited pattern even if monochrome mode printing is performed in the condition in which a color copy-forgery-inhibited pattern is set. When the monochrome mode printing is performed in the condition in which the color copy-forgery-inhibited pattern is set, and if the copy-forgery-inhibited pattern color is output with its color unchanged, the color is not converted into 100% black. Considering this, when a forced monochrome mode is selected, even if the user's setting for the copy-forgery-inhibited pattern is color, the color is changed to monochrome (black) before output. If the designated copy-forgery-inhibited pattern setting is for color, the designated copy-forgery-inhibited pattern setting is changed to the monochrome copy-forgery-inhibited pattern setting so that the printing processing is performed in the monochrome mode using the designated copy-forgery-inhibited pattern setting.
