Abstract: A blood glucose level measurement apparatus is a non-invasive measurement apparatus which is mounted on the wrist or the like of a user and performs a measurement by using light. When a biological image is captured in order to acquire a blood vessel pattern, not all light emitting elements emit light (entire surface emission is not performed) but some of the light emitting elements within a light emission range emit light. The light emission range is set to a range centering on an irradiation position (measurement light emitting element) in the previous measurement.

Abstract: A dither mask is used in a halftone process that is performed by the printer that includes the preceding and following heads. The dither mask includes preceding and following head storage regions. The preceding head storage region is used for a printing portion of the preceding head. The following head storage region is used for a printing portion of the following head. The dither mask is generated by determining, using comprehensive evaluation values, storage elements in which thresholds are to be stored under the condition that dots are permitted to be formed by the preceding and following heads at the same position in the region corresponding the overlapping regions.

Abstract: In a printing device for discharging ink from a plurality of print heads and printing on a print medium, the print heads are arrayed in a direction orthogonal to a movement direction relative to the print medium so that overlapping areas are created which overlap in the movement direction. A change rate of the apportionment ratio between a first nozzle row of an upstream print head in the relative movement direction of the print medium and of a second nozzle row and a downstream print head in the ends in the overlapping areas is greater than the change rate of the apportionment ratio in the middle in the overlapping areas. Concentration irregularity occurring in the overlapping areas of the printed article can thereby be made inconspicuous.
