Abstract:
According to an image processing apparatus, if image data designated to be stored in a storage unit within the image processing apparatus is stored in a storage device outside the image processing apparatus, a memory remaining amount or the like of the image processing apparatus is calculated as if the image data is stored in a storage area within the image processing apparatus, although the image data is not moved to the storage area within the image processing apparatus.
Abstract:
A data transmission apparatus, comprising: a recording unit for recording data output settings for respective users preliminarily; a communication unit for transmitting to a recipient user target data with the output setting either for a sender user or the recipient user, which is recorded in said recording unit, according to an instruction by the sender user; and a display unit for previewing at least one of output settings for the sender user and the recipient user among those recorded in said recording unit, before transmitting said data.
Abstract:
To eliminate a defect in conventional dental bleaching agent, that light for activating titanium oxide hardly reaches down to the titanium oxide at the teeth surface to be bleached, a dental bleaching agent set consists of two components of which the first component is attached to teeth surface and irradiation of light is followed after the second component is contacted on the teeth surface, the first component consisting of an organic solvent, containing at least one of a titanium oxide, a nitrogen doped titanium oxide, and a titanium oxinitride having photocatalytic activities, and preferably one or more of a metal oxide, a metal salt, and a metal powder, a thickener and water, the second component consisting of a compound that produces hydrogen peroxide in water, a thickener and a carrier.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium includes a substrate and a recording layer formed on the substrate. The recording layer is provided with a plurality of information tracks each having a track servo signal region and a user data region. Adjacent information tracks are separated by non-magnetic material. The track servo signal region includes a plurality of magnetic portions arranged in a track-extending direction and non-magnetic portions interposed between the magnetic portions. The user data region includes magnetic portions arranged in the track-extending direction. The coercive force of the magnetic portions in the track servo signal region is different from that of the magnetic portions in the user data region. For instance, the former coercive force is weaker than the latter coercive force.
Abstract:
A method for bleaching teeth comprises steps of applying a solution containing nitrogen-deeped titanium oxide powder on a surface of teeth, and irradiating the applied part with light to bleach the teeth based on a photocatalytic action thus produced, and a bleaching agent for teeth suitable for carrying out the method comprises a solution containing nitrogen deeped titanium oxide powder, in which the nitrogen-deeped titanium oxide is preferably a photocatalytic substance having a Ti—O—N structure having a titanium oxide crystalline lattice containing nitrogen and exhibiting a photocatalytic action in a visible light region, the bleaching agent contains preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight of the nitrogen-deeped titanium oxide powder, the nitrogen-deeped titanium oxide powder has a specific surface area of from 10 to 500 m2/g, the solution contains water and/or an alcohol as a solvent, and the bleaching agent further contains preferably 0.5 to 20% by weight of a thickener, 1 to 20% by weight of hydrogen peroxide, and 2 to, 45% by weight of urea peroxide.
Abstract:
An image forming system and image forming apparatus capable of suppressing reduced productivity and avoiding the troublesome task of sorting output materials even when image formation becomes impossible. The system and apparatus include a transfer controller that permits job data transfer to another image forming apparatus if image formation of the job data has not started when an impaired image forming state is detected in an image forming apparatus, and that prohibits job data transfer to another image forming apparatus if image formation of job data has already started. In this way, the image formation process can be executed without processing congestion by having another image forming apparatus perform the job data image formation. Moreover, the task of sorting the output material is unnecessary because the job data is not dispersed between the transfer origin and the transfer destination.
Abstract:
An image forming device includes a plurality of boxes, an active job database for storing job information about jobs, a job list generation portion for generating and displaying a job list screen for a user to select one of jobs, a relation box decision portion for deciding a box that is related to the job selected by the user, and a data list generation portion for performing the process of generating and displaying a data list screen that is a list of files stored in the decided box.
Abstract:
A data processing apparatus includes one or a plurality of input portions, one or a plurality of output portions, a plurality of compressing/expanding devices which compress data-to-be-outputted included in a job inputted from any one of an input portions and expand the compressed data-to-be-outputted, and a job discrimination portion which discriminates whether the job inputted from any one of the input portions is not required to be outputted without delay. Depending on a discrimination result of the job discrimination portion, a controller controls operation assignment of a plurality of compressing/expanding devices and activates assigned compressing/expanding devices for the job.
Abstract:
In addition to a data processing memory that processes data for an input print job, the present invention includes a mounting unit that enables mounting of an expansion memory used for data storage, as well as a detection unit that detects whether or not an expansion memory is mounted to the mounting unit. Where the job is one in which the data therefor is to be output multiple times, the controller selects the storage destination memory for the data used for output of the second copy onward in accordance with whether or not an expansion memory is mounted, and stores the data in the selected storage destination memory. The output unit reads out the data from the selected storage destination memory and performs output of the second copy onward.
Abstract:
A lead frame includes: an outer frame section; a plurality of chip mounting sections which are supported by the outer frame section and on which a plurality of semiconductor chips are mounted; lead sections surrounding the chip mounting sections; connecting sections for connecting and supporting the lead sections and the outer frame section with each other; and an encapsulation region in which the chip mounting sections are encapsulated together in an encapsulation resin. An opening is provided in a plurality of regions of the outer frame section that are each located outside the encapsulation region and along the extension of one of the connecting sections.
