Patent number: 6339684Abstract: The recording apparatus of the present invention acquires time data from a clock built in the main body of the apparatus, and generates first calculation data by calculating the time data with a predetermined calculation method. Meanwhile, in the cartridge attached to the main body, the time data is acquired from the main body, and second calculation data is generated by calculating the time data with the same calculation method as the above-mentioned predetermined calculation method. As a result of comparing the first calculation data to the second calculation data, it is judged that the attached cartridge is proper when both of the data match, and it is judged that the attached cartridge is not proper when both of the data do not match. It is thereby possible to judge whether or not the cartridge attached to the main body is proper.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2000Date of Patent: January 15, 2002Assignee: Matsushita Graphic Communication Systems, Inc.Inventors: Tamotsu Sato, Tatsuya Tamaru
