A liquid ejecting device includes a first liquid ejecting unit configured to eject recording liquid onto a medium, a second liquid ejecting unit configured to eject disinfectant liquid onto the medium, and a control unit configured to control the first liquid ejecting unit and the second liquid ejecting unit, wherein the control unit is configured to cause the disinfectant liquid to eject avoiding a position at which the recording liquid ejects on the medium.

A printer includes a transferee object sending unit configured to send out a transferee object downstream, a transfer film sending unit configured to send out a transfer film downstream, a printing device situated downstream of the transfer film sending unit and configured to print a transferred image onto the transfer film, a holding unit situated downstream of the transferee object sending unit and the printing device and configured to hold the transferee object and the transfer film on top of each other so that a surface of the transfer film on which the transferred image is printed faces the transferee object and to send out the transferee object and the transfer film downstream, and a pasting unit situated downstream of the holding unit and configured to paste the transfer film onto the transferee object with the transferred image printed on the transfer film.

A plotter includes a mounting portion, a first movement mechanism, a second movement mechanism, a processor, and a memory. The mounting portion is configured to mount with a pen containing a liquid. The first movement mechanism is configured to relatively move the mounting portion and a workpiece in a movement direction. The second movement mechanism configured to relatively move the mounting portion and the workpiece in a direction intersecting the movement direction. The memory is configured to store computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, instruct the processor to perform processes. The processes include acquiring plot data, acquiring information relating to a remaining amount of the liquid of the pen, setting a relative movement speed of the mounting portion and the workpiece, and controlling the first movement mechanism and the second movement mechanism at the set movement speed, and performing drawing on the workpiece.

An embodiment of this invention solves memory shortage that occurs in enlargement processing of an image because a web application holds data of an image or the like not as binary data but as character string data. In the embodiment, a processor in an information processing apparatus executes a program including a first program layer with an instruction set to be interpreted and executed by the processor and a second program layer with an instruction set interpreted in advance by a unit other than the processor in the following way. That is, the first program layer draws an image, and divides and enlarges the drawn image using a memory. Image data of each of a plurality of images obtained by the division and enlargement is output from the second program layer to an external device.

A printing apparatus includes a transfer drum configured to rotate while supporting a plurality of transfer members on each of which an image is formed by discharging ink from a printhead, a concave portion formed lower than a surface of each of the plurality of transfer members between adjacent transfer members, and a rotating member configured to apply a processing liquid while being pressed against each of the plurality of transfer members. The printing apparatus also includes a driving unit configured to rotate the rotating member. The rotating member rotates by driving of the driving unit without following rotation of the transfer drum in a state in which the rotating member faces the concave portion, and the rotating member rotates by following rotation of the transfer drum in a state in which the rotating member is pressed against the transfer member.

A printer includes a thermal head having a plurality of heating elements to print on a paper that is conveyed thereto, a controller configured to control a speed of the paper that is conveyed and an amount of power supplied to the heating elements, and a processor configured to determine from image data of an image that is to be printed on the paper using the thermal head whether or not a character and a figure other than the character are to be simultaneously printed and instruct the controller based on the determination. The processor instructs the controller to set the speed of the paper to a first speed which is slower than a second speed, which is the speed for printing the character without the figure, upon determining that the character and the figure are to be simultaneously printed.

A foil transfer device includes a light emitter that emits light, a driver that causes scanning to be performed with the light by moving one or both of an irradiator and a substrate relative to each other, the irradiator casting the light emitted by the light emitter, and a controller that causes the light emitter to change power of the light according to a velocity indication value during at least one of an acceleration period from a time when at least one of the irradiator and the substrate begins to move to a time when a velocity thereof becomes constant and a deceleration period from a time when the velocity is constant to a time when at least one of the irradiator and the substrate stops.
