Disclosed is a recording system in which an operation performed on the side of a printer unit in order to change over recording density is delayed while a recording operation is in progress. When a recording density changeover command is received during a recording operation, the density changeover is performed after the recording operation ends. A control unit which controls the printer unit is informed of the fact that the measures for changing over the recording density have been completed on the printer unit side.
摘要:
A light quantity control device suitable for use in a laser beam printer includes a beam generator, a monitor for monitoring the quantity of light of a beam generated by the beam generator, and a controller. The controller controls the light quantity of the beam generated by the beam generator in response to the output of the monitor. The controller includes a digital value output circuit and a light quantity control circuit. The digital value output circuit outputs a digital value representing the quantity of light of the beam, and the light quantity control circuit controls the quantity of light in response to the digital value. The digital value output circuit varies the timing of output of the digital value in accordance with the output of the monitor.

An image recording apparatus operated in synchronism with a vertical synchronization signal from an external device comprises a unit for sending out to the external device a signal indicating a status to accept the vertical synchronization signal, and switching device for switching between a plurality of operation modes related to an elapsed time from the send-out of the signal by the signal sending unit.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes an recording medium, a beam radiating unit for radiating a beam to form an image on the recording medium, and a drive unit for driving the recording medium, wherein the drive unit has a stepping motor for performing a step operation of the recording medium.
摘要:
A heater activating apparatus includes a power source, a heater heated to which is applied to voltage from the power source, and a current regulating element. The voltage from the power source is applied to the heater through the current regulating element when the heater is initially to energized, and thereafter, the voltage is applied to the heater without passing through the current regulating element.
摘要:
A safety apparatus for an AC control circuit has a bidirectional thyristor, a photocoupler for detecting a load current, a transistor and a self-hold circuit for checking if a detection output from the photocoupler indicates a failure of the thyristor to commutate or lack of a trigger signal and another transistor which is turned on to blow a fuse and to cut off the load current when a failure of the thyristor to commutate or lack of the trigger signal is detected.
摘要:
A driver for a light emitting device comprises first and second switching means associated with the light emitting device and application means for applying voltages to the first and second switching means to perform the switching operation in accordance with an input signal. The application means applies voltages of essentially same level to the first and second switching means.
