An original reading apparatus includes an original transport mechanism that has a pickup roller (R1) and the like and an original reading mechanism that has a light source unit (6) and the like, and captures an image of an original transported by the original transport mechanism. When multi-feeding has occurred, in which when a read original (P1) is transported, another original (P2) is also transported, and the other multi-fed original (P2) is not positioned between the read original (P1) and the light source unit (6) (that is, when a read face (P1a) of the read original (P1) is not obstructed), the reading operation of the read face (P1a) of the read original (P1) is continued by the original reading mechanism.

An interconnector includes a strip-shaped and electrically conductive member for electrically connecting respective electrodes to each other of solar cells adjacent to each other. The conductive member includes a stress relief part that is planer and has a notch forming an obtuse angle at a lateral end or has a linear lateral end. This structure remarkably alleviates a stress due to a difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the interconnector and the solar cells, so that a warp occurring to the solar cells is reduced and the reliability of connection between the interconnector and the solar cells is improved.

A magnetic image forming apparatus includes a developer for developing a magnetic latent image. The developer has a liquid ink and particles of a resin to be dispersed in the liquid ink. The particles contain magnetic powder formed of plural parts dispersed in each of the particles of the resin. The apparatus also includes a stirrer for stirring the developer in a storage device. Also, there is a restrictor for limiting an amount of developer to be supplied.

Management of a manufacturing process also in assembling a solar battery module is facilitated. A solar battery module evaluation apparatus includes a power supply unit, a camera, and a processing unit. The power supply unit supplies electric power. The processing unit outputs pattern information indicating whether a solar battery module is defective or not, based on data of an image picked up by the camera, the image being an optical image that appears as a result of supply of electric power to the solar battery module for light emission through electroluminescence phenomenon.

An image forming apparatus including: a plurality of image data acquisition units for respectively acquiring one or more page(s) of image data; a color or monochrome determining unit for determining whether each of the acquired pages is in color or in monochrome; an image forming unit for performing image formation of each page switchably using a monochrome-only image forming function for a monochrome page or a color and monochrome image forming function for a color page and a monochrome page; an image data switching unit for sequentially selecting and arranging the acquired pages of image data one by one so that the image formation of each page is performed in the order of selection; a function selecting unit for selecting either one of the monochrome-only and color and monochrome image forming functions for each of the arranged pages on the basis of the determination result made by the color or monochrome determining unit; and a control unit for controlling the image forming unit so that image formation of each page is performed using the selected image forming function.

Disclosed are a method of and a device for measuring different kinds of photosensitive toners each being sensitive to light with a different range of wavelengths and contained in a photosensitive toner mixture which is used for forming a color image by a single exposure and developing operation. One or more than one kind of light is selected from the different kinds of light having wavelengths to which the respective kinds of toners are sensitive, so as to be projected to the photosensitive toner mixture, so that one or more kinds of photosensitive toners sensitive to the projected light are discharged. The one or more kinds of discharged photosensitive toners are separated from the one or more kinds of charged photosensitive toners, and the amount of the charged photosensitive toners is measured. On the basis of the amount of each kind of photosensitive toner that is not sensitive to the projected light, the density of that photosensitive toner, or other photosensitive toners are determined.

The amount of ink ejected from a recording head is measured using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) method. An ink detector arranged outside an image area includes an AT-cut quartz oscillator constructed by vapor-depositing Al electrodes on both surfaces of a quartz plate, and the ink ejected from the recording head mounted on a carriage is deposited on this quartz oscillator. A change in resonant frequency caused in the quartz oscillator due to the deposition of the ink is detected, and the mass of the ink ejected from the recording head is measured based on the detection results.

In a method of adjusting record displacement of a serial printer including a recording head which records a plurality of lines at a time in the main scanning direction, a first test pattern which is formed of a plurality of line patterns spaced apart by a prescribed distance is recorded in the main scanning direction, the record sheet is fed by a prescribed amount, and a second test pattern which is formed of prescribed recording patterns is recorded. Based on the positional relations between the first and second test patterns, the feeding amount of the record sheet is adjusted. Since the feeding amount of the record sheet is adjusted based on the positional relations between the first and second test patterns, record displacement in the feeding direction of the record sheet can be adjusted easily, and the cost increase of the serial printer can be suppressed.
