Image sensor having a processing part for reading and/or writing information from/to the memory of each of modularized components
Provided is a technique for facilitating management of an image sensor having a modular structure. The image sensor includes an imaging system and a processing part executing a process using an image acquired by the imaging system. The imaging system is configured by combining a plurality of modularized components. Each of the components includes a non-volatile memory. The processing part is capable of reading and/or writing information from/to the memory of each of the components.
PRINTING SUBASSEMBLY
A printing subassembly is disclosed. A printing subassembly includes a frame, a printbar coupled to the frame, and a lift mechanism coupled to the printbar. The lift mechanism selectively moves the printbar with respect to the frame. A fluid receiving system is coupled to the printbar.
Printing apparatus having processing unit attached having identification section for identifying the attached processing unit
A printing apparatus includes a conveyor, a print engine, and a processing device. The conveyor is configured to convey a print medium in a conveyance direction. The print engine includes a print head, and a platen configured to support the print medium conveyed by the conveyor. The print engine is configured to perform image printing on the print medium supported by the platen while moving the print head in a first direction intersecting the conveyance direction. The processing device has a processing unit removably attached thereto. The processing device is configured to perform a processing process to divide the print medium conveyed by the conveyor into a plurality of media. The processing unit has an identification section for identifying a type of the processing process executable by the processing unit.
INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, PRINTING SYSTEM, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE
An information processing device includes a display and a second controller that causes the display to display an edit screen including a first image edit area and a second image edit area for receiving an edit to an image. The second controller causes a stair image, which resembles the shape of a media tray to be inserted into a printing device, to be displayed as a background image of the edit screen. Images displayed in the first image edit area and the second image edit area are associated with images to be printed on a plurality of print media loaded in the media tray, the association being based on the location of the stair image relative to the first image edit area and the second image edit area.
Printing device supply component
In some examples, a fuser for a printing device includes a memory device comprising corrective data corresponding to a reference color table for the printing device that is able to operate in a plurality of different modes, the corrective data comprising quantized coefficients derived from a compression of a difference color table including a plurality of difference nodes in which each difference node represents a value that is to be combined with a corresponding node of the reference color table, the quantized coefficients useable to produce a reconstructed difference table. The corrective data including residue values to combine with the reconstructed difference table to produce a customized color table for a selected mode of the plurality of different modes.
IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM, SHELF FOR IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
An image forming system includes a shelf portion, a post, and an image forming apparatus. An article is placeable on the shelf portion. The post is configured to support the shelf portion. The image forming apparatus is configured to form an image and includes a support portion on an upper surface of the image forming apparatus. The support portion is configured to support the post.
Sheet accommodating device and image forming apparatus
A sheet accommodating device includes a housing; a sheet accommodating portion configured to accommodate a sheet and detachably mountable in the housing, the accommodating portion including, a supporting member supporting the accommodating portion so as to be rotatable relative to the housing, a movable member movable relative to the supporting member along the supporting member, a first urging member urging the movable member in a moving direction of the supporting member, a regulating member movable in a direction crossing with the moving direction of the movable member, and a second urging member urging the regulating member so as to protrude it from the movable member. The housing is provided with an engageable member engaged with the regulating member.
Image reading apparatus having rail member to retain guide member to be slidable
An image reading apparatus includes a document platen on which a document is to be stacked, a pressing sheet having flexibility, a conveyance unit provided in a base member, an open portion provided in the base member and rotatable in a first direction with respect to the base member to open at least a part of the conveyance path, and a rotation member rotatable in the first direction with respect to the base member. The pressing sheet presses the document against the document platen. The conveyance unit forms a conveyance path within which the document is to be conveyed. The reading unit reads the document conveyed by the conveyance unit. The open portion retains one end of the pressing sheet in a longitudinal direction. The rotation member retains the other end of the pressing sheet in the longitudinal direction.
Information processing apparatus and information storage medium with listing of error data and list acquisition
An information processing apparatus includes a processor and a memory configured to store a command for operating the processor. The processor acquires a first list including a plurality of error data, each of which includes information indicating a cause of an error occurring in an image forming apparatus, and adds up the number of occurrence times of each of plural cause candidates relating to the error based on the first list. The processor further ranks the plural cause candidates depending on the number of occurrence times, and generates a second list in which each of the plural cause candidates and a rank are associated with each other.
STRUCTURE FOR CONNECTING PLURALITY OF CHASSIS IN IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
An image forming apparatus comprises a first chassis, a second chassis, a first connector, a second connector, a first scale and a first indicator. The first chassis and the second chassis are connected via the first connector and the second connector. The first scale is provided on one of the first connector and the second connector. The first scale indicates a relative distance between the first chassis and the second chassis in a first direction. The first indicator is provided on the other of the first connector and the second connector. The first indicator points the first scale.
