Abstract: It is an object of the present invention, when using image scanner(s) to capture
image(s) of original(s) and using printer(s) to print same, to enable four-sided borderless
copying such that margin(s) do not appear on printout(s). An image scanner might capture an
image corresponding to scan region 263 which might be somewhat larger than original 262.
Image processing circuitry might then enlarge an image corresponding to scan region 266
(arrow 279), converting it into enlarged image 271. Within enlarged image 271, the image of
original 262 might have been enlarged so as to become image 273, which might be somewhat
larger than printing paper 274. This enlarged original image 273 which would be present
within enlarged image 271 might then be printed by a printer.

operation of the motorcycle steering damper (10) can be ensured
without needing an electrical control, and the vibration of
a front wheel system due to disturbance can be suppressed while
attempting to reduce the production costs by decreasing the
