Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed to precisely locate an edge (4A)
of an imageable plate (4) mounted on a drum (1A) or other support
surface. A light source (9A) and light sensor (10A) are used to
measure the difference in reflectivity between the plate (4) and the
support surface (1B). The drum (1A) or support surface (1B) contains
at least one groove (3A) to increase the difference in reflectivity
between the plate (4) and the support surface (1B). The groove (3A)
may also contain an anti-reflecting layer to further increase the
difference in reflectivity. The groove (3A) may also have a
geometric shape that causes incident light (28,29) to be directed
away from the light sensor (30A,30B).

Abstract: An ink-jet printhead having a hemispherical ink chamber (114) and a method for
manufacturing the same are provided. The ink-jet printhead includes a substrate (110), in
which a manifold (112) for supplying ink, an ink chamber (114) having a substantially
hemispherical shape and filled with ink to be ejected, and an ink channel (116) for
supplying ink from the manifold (112) to the ink chamber (114) are formed to be integrated into
one body, a nozzle plate (120) formed to have a multilayered structure, in which a first
insulating layer (126), a thermally conductive layer (127) formed of a thermally conductive
material, and a second insulating layer (128) are sequentially stacked, and having a nozzle (122),
through which ink is ejected, formed at a location corresponding to the center of the
ink chamber (114), a nozzle guide (130) having a multilayered structure and extending from the
edge of the nozzle to the inside of the ink chamber, a heater (140) formed on the nozzle
plate (120) to surround the nozzle, and an electrode formed on the nozzle plate to be
electrically connected to the heater (140) and supply current to the heater (140). The nozzle
guide (130) is formed by extending the thermally conductive (127) layer and the first insulating
layer (126) of the nozzle plate (120), and the thermally conductive layer is formed to have a
multilayered structure, in which the thermally conductive layer is surrounded by the
first insulating layer. Accordingly, it is possible to satisfy requirements of a
printhead. In addition, since the nozzle guide (130) is strong enough to not be deformed
and heat can be quickly discharged through the thermally conductive layer, it is
possible to increase the driving frequency of the printhead.

Abstract: A common electrode and an individual electrode are provided
in plural pairs on a first transparent substrate, and
recesses are formed in a second substrate in positions
corresponding to the pairs of electrodes to define discharge
cells of display cells. The display cells of a display panel
can be individually driven on the cell-by-cell basis and the
planar panel has a reduced thickness. A driving circuit for
changing luminance in accordance with the number of pulses
applied to the individual electrode within a unit time to
make gradation display is provided, and gradation control is
achieved by performing switching control for each of the
individual electrodes provided independently of one another
in one-to-one relation to the display cells. A voltage pulse
is applied to the individual electrode to reverse the
polarity of wall charges accumulated on a dielectric layer,
and a voltage pulse is then applied to the common electrode
so that an electric field of the wall charges caused upon the
reversal of the polarity is additionally applied. Thereby
provided are a planar display panel which can set a large
control margin in the display operation, ensure stable
display, and present gradation display with high reliability
and quality, as well as a manufacturing method, a controller,
and a driving method for the planar display panel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an image sensor comprising an amorphous silicon thin-film transistor optical sensor which functions as an image sensor used for an X-ray photography device, a fingerprint recognition apparatus, a scanner, etc., and a method of manufacturing the image sensor. Since the thin-film transistor optical sensor according to the present invention has a high-resistance silicon region by disposing an offset region in a channel region, a dark leakage current of the optical sensor remains in a low level even under a high voltage. Therefore, it is possible to apply a high voltage to the thin-film transistor optical sensor according to the present invention so that the image senor can be sensitive to a weak light. In addition, since the storage capacitance in the image sensor is formed in a double structure, the image sensor has a high value of capacitance. Furthermore, since a lower common electrode is electrically connected to an upper common electrode, the image sensor has a stable structure.

Abstract: A printer driver of a Non-PC controls to
quantize image data at quantization resolution
(resolution 1), convert the quantized data into data
resolution (resolution 2), and then transfer the data
of the data resolution to an engine unit of an image
output apparatus. The engine unit converts the data
resolution of the received data into recording
resolution (resolution 3) for a recording medium.
Here, the quantization resolution is set to be lower
than the data resolution. Thus, processing loads in
the image processing unit can be reduced, whereby it
is possible to provide image output capable of
maintaining image quality and speed even under the
circumstance that there is no sufficient memory and
high-speed CPU, and to provide image output capable
of maintaining image quality and speed according to a
matrix recording method flexibly coping with various
environments and minimizing the load in the engine
unit.
