Abstract: According to one embodiment, a liquid crystal display device includes a first area, second area, liquid crystal layer, and a plurality of pixels. Each subpixel includes an opening area including a first opening area and a second opening area. The pixels include a first pixel positioned in the first area and a second pixel positioned over a boundary of the first area and the second area. The opening area of the second pixel is smaller than the opening area of the first pixel when opening areas of subpixels of same color are compared. An each imaginary line showing the boundary of the first opening area and the second opening area is a same straight line.

Abstract: A gas analysis device includes a sample cell into which sample gas is introduced, a light source that irradiates the sample cell with light, a photodetector that detects light intensity of light which passes through the sample cell irradiated by the light source, a concentration calculation unit which calculates a concentration of a measurement target component contained in the sample gas based on light intensity outputted from the photodetector, and a light intensity output unit that outputs, comparably with a reference light intensity set in advance, a light intensity at calibration detected by the photodetector during calibration.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a memory and a processor configured to change an operation mode between a first operation mode and a second operation mode depending on preset time frames, set the time frames in response to an operation performed via a network by an administrative user having administration authority, and change a current operation mode to the first operation mode or the second operation mode in response to an operation input by a general user on an operation panel of the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: An electromagnetic connecting device includes a flange of a hub, an armature supported by the flange via a leaf spring, a rotor accommodating an electromagnetic coil, and an anti-vibration member. When an electric current is supplied to the electromagnetic coil, the armature moves in the axial direction of the hub against the spring force of the leaf spring, and is attracted to the rotor. The leaf spring includes a moving portion that moves in the axial direction together with the movement of the armature. The anti-vibration member is fixed to the moving portion of the leaf spring. The anti-vibration member includes a stopper that comes in contact with the flange, and a damper that comes in contact with the armature. With this configuration, an electromagnetic connecting device capable of reducing an impact sound both when the armature is attracted and released can be manufactured at a low manufacturing cost.

Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a memory that stores time information having a periodicity and print setting information as a printing execution history, a reception unit that receives print data, and a printer that prints the print data according to the print setting information corresponding to the time information in a case of reception of the received print data or in a case where, if a case of printing execution is designated with respect to the received print data, time in the case of execution corresponds to the time information.

Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a memory, a receiving unit, and a printing unit. The memory stores print schedule information indicating regular time information concerning a time at which printing is regularly performed and also stores print settings information in association with the print schedule information. The receiving unit receives print data. The printing unit prints the print data received by the receiving unit in accordance with the print settings information if a time at which the print data is received matches the regular time information indicated in the print schedule information.

Abstract: A printer includes a receiver, an inserter, and a sort controller. The receiver receives print data. In response to detection of a change in a reception condition for receiving the print data by the receiver, the inserter inserts separator information between a print data portion received before the detection and a print data portion received after the detection, and thereby generates print data including the separator information inserted thereinto. In response to detection of the separator information from the print data including the separator information inserted thereinto that is sequentially input from the inserter, the sort controller performs control to sort a printout of a print data portion after the detected separator information from a printout of a print data portion before the detected separator information.

Abstract: There is provided a printing device. In a case where a sheet of a first direction supplied to a printing unit runs out in the middle of printing a certain unit, a sorting controller supplies sheets of a second direction to the printing unit to enable the continuous printing, and in a case where a direction of the image data of the page already held at the time when the sheet of the first direction runs out does not match with the second direction, rotates the image data such that the direction of the image data matches with the second direction, and for the pages in which the print data is not generated at the time when the sheet of the first direction runs out, instructs the generation unit to generate the image data such that the direction of the image data matches with the second direction.

Abstract: A printer includes a receiver, a detector, and a sort controller. The receiver receives print data described in a page description language. The detector detects a predetermined specific command from the print data received by the receiver. If the detector detects the specific command, the sort controller performs control to sort a printout of a print data portion after the detected specific command from a printout of a print data portion before the detected specific command.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a log storing unit that stores a log of each of plural object items that are set in advance, and a setting unit that, when an error occurs, selects predetermined one or more object items from the plural object items on the basis of a type of the error, and makes a setting such that logs of the selected one or more object items are stored in the log storing unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for updating control information of a manufacturing apparatus comprises: a storage configured to store consistency information indicating a consistency between a configuration of a manufacturing apparatus and control information and result information indicating a result of installing of control information in the manufacturing apparatus in association with each other; and a computer configured to execute, prior to updating of control information installed in the manufacturing apparatus with new control information, a determination as to whether the manufacturing apparatus which receives an instruction of the updating normally operates after the updating, based on the consistency information and the result information stored in the storage, and to update the control information installed in the manufacturing apparatus with the new control information if the determination is positive.
