  • Publication number: 20210072672
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a revolving member, a transfer member, a guide member, and a controller. The revolving member revolves and retains a toner image on a peripheral surface thereof. The transfer member nips a transported recording medium and the revolving member at a nipping section and transfers the toner image retained by the revolving member onto the recording medium by receiving a voltage. The guide member is connected to ground, guides the recording medium to the nipping section, and is in contact with the recording medium nipped at the nipping section. The controller performs constant current control to transfer the toner image onto the recording medium if a print resistance is lower than or equal to a system resistance. The print resistance corresponds to when the voltage is applied to the transfer member in a state where the recording medium is nipped at the nipping section.

  • Publication number: 20210070070
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to set an image position of a reference image in a transport direction of a recording medium to an arbitrary position on a specific page of the recording medium. The reference image is formed using a first color and serves as a reference for an image position of an image of a second color to be formed after the image of the first color is formed. The processor is also configured to adjust the image position for the second color on an adjacent page, located adjacently upstream of the specific page in the transport direction, by using image information of the reference image formed on the specific page.

  • Publication number: 20210064571
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an acquiring part, a copying part, and a switching part. The acquiring part acquires a file structure at a migration source and one or more identification information items each of which identifies a file at the migration source. The copying part copies the file structure and the one or more identification information items to a migration destination before migration of content data of one or more files at the migration source. In response to detection of an operation on a file corresponding to one of the one or more identification information items copied to the migration destination by the copying part, the switching part switches an access destination to the file at the migration source if a migration time to complete migration of content data of the file and finish the operation is equal to a predetermined duration or more.

  • Publication number: 20210065276
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores, for each object judged by a user whether to select the object, a selection history indicating whether the user has selected the object and a recommendation history indicating whether the object has been recommended to the user. The processor reads information from the memory. The processor is configured to conduct machine learning for estimating an effect of recommending each object from the selection history and the recommendation history, and to output, based on a result of the machine learning, information concerning an object that is predicted to be more likely to be selected by the user as a result of being recommended so as to satisfy a predetermined possibility level or higher.
