Abstract: An LCD apparatus, when fed with images in a video format whose pixel configuration is smaller than that of the LCD screen, fills the resulting blank area with a particular color through simple and low-speed image data processing. This LCD apparatus has rewritable memories, 24-bit latch circuits that cooperate with a blue-fill circuit and a black-fill circuit to write data of a particular color to the memories at all the addresses corresponding to the LCD screen, an overwriter for overwriting the memories with input image data only at the addresses corresponding to the area of the LCD screen in which images are displayed, and a reader for reading all the data stored in the memories to feed it to an LCD module.

Abstract: A printer which is provided with a daisy wheel so that the types thereof are brought into contact with an ink roller to thereby apply ink onto the types and constructed to be disposed the ink roller at the position at an angle of 90.degree. or less circumferential of the daisy wheel from the printing position.The position of the types is grouped into two regions defined in connection with the ink roller set position and the rotation direction of the daisy wheel is decided by the region in which the types to be printed are positioned, in order to get high printing speed.The fingers located at a portion corresponding to the ink roller set position when the daisy wheel is in a printing-stand-by condition are smaller in length than others and have no type respectively, thereby preventing the daisy wheel from being deformation.
