A photochromic cured product is obtained by curing a photochromic curable composition which comprises a polymerizable monomer having a biphenyl skeleton such as p-phenylphenyl methacrylate, a multifunctional polymerizable monomer having no biphenyl skeleton such as a mixture of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, and an organic photochromic compound.

Abstract: A wireless signal receiving device with prompt wake-up function is disclosed for receiving serial data transmitted from computer peripherals. The device includes a RF signal receiving module, a bridge module and a USB module, which can operate in normal mode, first idle mode, second idle mode or search mode. When the device is in the first idle mode, it still receives serial data normally. When the device is in the second idle mode, the device can change to the search mode periodically to search whether there is new transmitted data. The main drawback of not being promptly waken up when the conventional wireless signal receiving device is in idle mode is improved through the disclosed device and the two idle modes.

Abstract: When order processing for printing image data is carried out by recording the image data and an order file in an order processing recording medium, history of orders is managed by the recording medium so that the content of past orders can be confirmed or new ordering information can be generated by using the past order content, for example. A flag showing whether or not an order file describing the content of an order, such as the quantity and the size, should be processed in a laboratory (whether the file is valid or invalid) is recorded in the recording medium together with the order file. By judging this flag by using an image handling apparatus of an image processing system, only valid order files are processed.
