Abstract: In a communication system, an image forming apparatus sends an address of a receiving section to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal receives a selection of an image data among plural thumbnails displayed on a display section, and wirelessly sends the selected image data to the image forming apparatus with the address.

Abstract: Where 3D conversion complementary information for 3D conversion of a TV program is pre-recorded on a first information recording area of an optical disc, a content recording area is set to an area on which the TV program relating to the 3D conversion complementary information is recordable. Where the 2D video content is pre-recorded on the first information recording area, download information, etc for recording the 3D conversion complementary information on a 3D conversion complementary information recording space is pre-recorded on a third information recording area so that 2D video content can be reproduced as 3D video. This allows recording and viewing 3D video by easily converting 2D video content, without changing standards and communication formats of generally available 2D video contents and while suppressing an increase in distributed information amount caused by conversion to 3D video.

Abstract: A paper feeding device includes a pressing member, a restricting mechanism, and an interlocking mechanism. The pressing member is movable up and down between a pressing position and a release position. The pressing position causes a pressure to a paper sheet against the feed roller. The release position causes a release of the pressure. The restricting mechanism is movable between a restricting position and a removal position. The restricting position causes a restriction on moving up of the pressing member to the pressing position. The removal position causes a removal of the restriction. The interlocking mechanism is configured to move the restricting mechanism to the removal position in interlock with rotation of the feed roller.
