Abstract: A printer and printing method suitable for high speed multicolor printing. A paper transport
section (112) advances the printing medium (113), and a print head (110) prints text or graphics
on the printing medium (113) by driving printing elements corresponding to a plurality of colors.
A transport unit (111) moves the print head (110) orthogonally to the direction in which the
printing medium (113) travels. A plurality of image buffer units (109) store information indicating
where the printing elements are driven. A logic device (102) performs a logic operation on
information read from image buffer units (109) to detect whether at least one of the printing
elements is driven at a particular dot column position. A logic operation results memory (114)
stores the logic operation results correlated to a print head (110) position. Using the information
stored in the logic operation results memory (114), a print head movement range calculator (102)
determines the range of print head (110) movement, and a movement controller (102) drives a
the transport unit (111) to move the print head (110) in the obtained movement range.

inner sleeve; second linking means (54,56,58) between the inner sleeve and the
rod, the second linking means generating rotational movement of the rod about
the axis on rotation of the sleeve about the axis, and allowing axial movement
of the inner sleeve relative to the rod; and control means (66,68) associated with
the inner sleeve to control the relative rotational movement between the rod and
the housing. Simplified design of actuator.

Abstract: An intraoral x-ray film packet is taught which has an outer
envelope wherein one of the two opposing outer sheets is more rigid than the other
such that it has a tensile modulus of at least 700 Kg/cm 2 . This is preferably

together and forming a perimetric laminated edge which is substantially coplanar
with the more rigid of the two sheets. A film chip resides between the two outer
sheets. A comfort-enhancing perimetric edge bead is injection molded directly
onto the perimetric laminated edge.

Abstract: A data transmission device transmits a data
broadcast using a narrow unused broadcasting band in a
digital broadcast, and to record the data broadcast,
which has been received, on a receiving side so that the
receiving side can play back the data broadcast after a
data stream is totally recorded. The transmission device
generates a first data stream, which is recorded on a
recording medium on a receiving side, and a second data
stream including audio and video data, which is
transmitted as a broadcasting program. The transmission
device multiplexes the first and the second data streams
and then transmits the multiplexed data stream. The
transmission of the multiplexed data stream is controlled
so that a transmission rate for the multiplexed data
stream does not exceed the maximum transmission rate, and
so that a transmission rate for the first data stream
becomes lower than that for the second data stream. A
receiving device records the first data stream on the
recording medium, and permits the first data stream to be
played back for use after the transmission completes.

Abstract: A unique sensor is used to detect a transmission impairment that may have affected incoming optical channel signals. The sensor, more specifically, selects a group of the incoming channel signals and generates a first power signal, P 0 , over the selected group of signals and generates a second power signals, P 1 , over a weighted version of the selected group of channel signals. The sensor then generates, as a function of the first and second power signals, P 0  and P 1 , a signal indicative of whether the particular transmission impairment affected the levels of individual ones of the incoming channel signals. If so, then control apparatus offsets the impairment accordingly.

Abstract: A management system of a machine equipped with a
driving-power source reads out maintenance conditions from a storage
means of maintenance management information when data and conditions,
concerned about a maintenance management of a machine, the features of
the machine, and so on, including the maintenance conditions, are inputted
from the input means. Then, information about predicted maintenance
management under a certain operation time of the machine is predicted
with reference to the maintenance conditions. Subsequently, the
information about the predicted maintenance management is represented on
a display means. Furthermore, a maintenance predicted value is
previously stored in a data base or the like with respect to the maintenance
within an operation time under the contract or within a contract term for
each of a plurality of contract ranks. A maintenance actual result value of
the machine being entered is accumulatively stored. After a termination
of the maintenance contract of the machine, the maintenance predicted
value that corresponds to a model and a contract rank of the machine is
read out, and simultaneously the maintenance actual result value of the
machine is read out, followed by making a judgment whether the
maintenance actual result value is larger or smaller than the maintenance
contract predicted value.

Filed: 2001-10-26
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for preventing reversion of the color of an
indicator dye in a biological indicator is disclosed. The indicator dye changes color
if viable microorganisms are present after sterilization, because acidic byproducts
are formed when the microorganisms metabolize the growth medium. It has been
found that the dye can change color back to the original color after the completion of
the sterilization due to leaching or diffusion of basic impurities into the growth
medium. The method and the apparatus employ a dual buffer system with one
buffer which operates at high pH to moderate pH fluctuations at the start of the
sterilization and a second buffer which operates at low pH to minimize pH
fluctuations after the sterilization is complete. Less high pH buffer than low pH
buffer is used in order to maximize the speed and sensitivity of the biological
indicator.
