Abstract: A communication apparatus has a wireless interface for which a first IP address corresponding to a first mode of the wireless interface is assigned. A processor performs steps of receiving search information which is transmitted to a transmitting destination of a second IP address, from an external apparatus via the wireless interface, determining whether or not the second IP address corresponds to the first IP address corresponding to the first mode of the wireless interface, and transmitting interface information indicating the first mode or a second mode of the wireless interface, and apparatus information of the communication apparatus, to the external apparatus. The interface information indicating the first mode or the second mode is transmitted based on whether the second IP address corresponds to the first IP address.

Abstract: A misfire detecting device for an engine is provided, which includes a processor configured to execute a cylinder operation controlling module to switch an engine operation mode from an all-cylinder operation to a reduced-cylinder operation in which operation of one or some of cylinders are suspended, when an execution condition of the reduced-cylinder operation is satisfied, a misfire detecting module to detect a possibility of misfire occurrence based on an angular speed variation of the engine, and a centrifugal damping part configured to reduce vibration caused by the engine. When a possible misfire state is detected by the misfire detecting module during the reduced-cylinder operation, the cylinder operation controlling module executes an operating-cylinder increase control in which the number of operating cylinders is increased. When the possible misfire state is continuously detected after the operating-cylinder increase control, the misfire detecting module detects the engine misfire.

Abstract: It is possible to easily acquire information on an available communication interface from a device in the case where a device on a network is searched for. A communication apparatus having a plurality of communication interfaces, including: a determination unit configured to determine, in the case where one of the plurality of communication interfaces receives a request requesting information on a communication interface, whether the one communication interface is a communication interface for a wireless LAN or a communication interface for a wired LAN; and a response unit configured to transmit a response for the request, which includes the determination results, to the source of transmission of the request.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a first controller, a second controller, and plural devices. The first controller executes a first operating system. The second controller executes a second operating system. The plural devices are controlled by the second controller. The first controller includes a first conversion unit, a command writing unit, a status reading unit, a second conversion unit, a status disposal unit, and a reset unit. The first conversion unit converts a function which is called by a process into a command. The command writing unit writes the command to a storage region of the second controller. The status reading unit reads a status. The second conversion unit converts the read status into a return value, and returns the return value to the process. The status disposal unit disposes of, for each communication channel, the read status. The reset unit resets, for each communication channel, software and a device.

Abstract: When a printer apparatus is allowed to execute a printing of a document using paper based on a print setting set by the user, the following processes are executed in order to allow the user to recognize a paper saving print setting. Whether or not there is a print setting which can save an amount of paper compared to the print setting set by the user is determined. If it is determined that a paper saving print setting exists, the user is notified of such a paper saving print setting.

Abstract: To set an IP address to an apparatus existing beyond a router, a first apparatus requests a second apparatus via the router to set an IP address to a third apparatus. Upon reception of the request, the second apparatus sets to the third apparatus the IP address instructed by the first apparatus.

Abstract: A method for producing a semiconductor diamond containing boron by the high pressure synthesis method, wherein a graphite material to be converted to the semiconductor diamond is mixed with boron or a boron compound, formed and fired, in such a way that the resultant graphite material contains a boron component uniformly dispersed therein and has an enhanced bulk density, a high purity and a reduced content of hydrogen.

Abstract: A lip type end face sealing device having excellent sealability to different kinds of liquids on both sides in the axial direction and having excellent durability. A case is tight fitted to an inner peripheral face of a housing and includes case members. One pair of seal lips is integrally fitted to inner peripheral flange parts, positioned oppositely each other in the axial direction, and opened in a tapered shape. One pair of the seal lips is slidably contacted with flange parts of slingers tight fitted to an outer periphery of a rotary shaft. Pressure in seal internal spaces between the seal lips is released through a vent hole.
