Proposed are a thermal transfer ribbon and a sticker printing method using the same, which can form not only full-color images formed by a color ink part but also points, such as pearl, fluorescent, luminous, sparkling, glass, and metal glitters. The thermal transfer ribbon includes: a color ink part having a yellow ink part (Y), a magenta ink part (M), and a cyan ink part (C); an overlay part forming an overlay layer to protect a printed surface; and at least one point ink part provided between the color ink part and the overlay part.

A printing device includes a printing head with nozzles, a movement mechanism that moves the printing head, and at least one processor. The processor controls the printing head to eject ink from each of the nozzles and to print on each position in a printing target area while causing the movement mechanism to move the printing head; and upon superposing printings in the printing target area based on pieces of data that are different from each other, controls the printing head to eject ink from at least one of the nozzles in each printing onto a different position from a position in a previous printing based on a different piece of data among the pieces of data for each of the superposing printings. The pieces of data is used in specifying from which of the nozzles ink is ejected onto each position in a printable area of the printing device.

A nail polishing and drying device is provided. The nail polishing and drying device includes: a hand mould used for keeping a hand in a stable manner, a slipper located on the hand mould and is adjusted according to a finger dimension by moving forward backward in a horizontal manner, a nail detecting sensor placed within the slipper and determines the finger housing to send a nail polish by informing a system whether a finger is inside or not, a main hose transferring the nail polish to a hose separator acting as a distributor by pulling the nail polish from a nail polish chamber; an air drying or a UV drying system consisting of extra hoses transferring the nail polish coming from the main hose separately to spraying nozzles by being connected to the hose separator and applies the nail polish to five fingers simultaneously.

An object of the present disclosure is to improve operability of a user in printing of contents data. One embodiment of the present invention is a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to operate as a display control unit configured to cause a display unit to display a graphical user interface having a first area for designating one contents image from among a plurality of contents images configuring a contents image group, a second area for designating one contents image group from among a plurality of contents image groups, a third area for designating an individual reflection target reflecting a contents image, and a fourth area for designating one reflection target group including a plurality of individual reflection targets.

The present disclosure relates to treatment of a nail surface with non-thermal (cold) plasma prior to application of an energy cured nail coating. Non-thermal plasma (NTP) generators and electronic components which power and control the NTP generators may be incorporated into a current industry standard UV, LED or combined UV/LED curing lamp to provide a NTP curing lamp. The NTP curing lamp conveniently provides plasma pretreatment and curing of the energy cured nail coating using the same apparatus. Plasma pretreatment of the nail surface prior to application of the energy cured nail coating provides better adhesion of the energy cured nail coating to the nail surface than is achieved without the pretreatment.
