Abstract: A rope including a yarn twisted by using a raw thread of a polyethylene fiber having an ultrahigh molecular weight and a strand twisted by the yarn and subjected to rope-making through the strand, and a resin coating layer for protecting the rope is formed on an external surface of the yarn, an external surface of the strand or an external surface of the rope. A method of manufacturing the rope includes a pretreating step I of removing an oil content contained in the rope and performing an affinity enhancing treatment over a surface thereof and a resin coating step II of forming a resin coating layer for protecting the rope on an external surface of the yarn, an external surface of the strand or an external surface of the rope. The resin coating layer for protecting the rope is formed.

Abstract: There are provided a rope which is excellent in a wear resistance and a bending resistance, and a manufacturing method of implementing the rope. A rope (1) including a yarn twisted by using a raw thread (5) of a polyethylene fiber (6) having an ultrahigh molecular weight and a strand (2) twisted by the yarn and subjected to steel-making through the strand (2), and a resin coating layer for protecting the rope (1) is formed on an external surface of the yarn, an external surface of the strand (2) or an external surface of the rope (1). A method of manufacturing the rope (1) includes a pretreating step I of removing an oil content contained in the rope (1) and performing an affinity enhancing treatment over a surface thereof and a resin coating step II of forming a resin coating layer for protecting the rope (1) on an external surface of the yarn, an external surface of the strand (2) or an external surface of the rope (1). The resin coating layer for protecting the rope (1) is formed.

Abstract: A multifunction machine includes, a print setting section that performs setting to contribute to a reduction in the environmental load, based on designated content with respect to an operating panel of the multifunction machine or an external computer, an eco-printing judging section that judges whether printing according to the applied setting corresponds to eco-printing which is environment-friendly printing, a logo image attaching section to attach a logo image to an image when the result of the judgment is a correspondence to eco-printing, and a printing controlling section which is caused by a printing engine to print an image to which a logo image is attached.

Abstract: A controller for an image processing apparatus, which has a function of switching a plurality of operation modes, includes a CPU of which number of times the power is turned ON/OFF in a range where operations are guaranteed is previously defined, a processor which performs a specified processing, a sub CPU, and other devices, the controller having a normal mode, a first power saving mode in which the power consumption is smaller than that in the normal mode, a second power saving mode in which the power consumption is smaller than that in the first power saving mode, and a third power saving mode in which the power consumption is smaller than that in the second power saving mode.
