Abstract: A container with an opening provided with a recording medium, which is provided for preventing reading of information on the recording medium from the time of factory shipment to the time of use, and which can be set on an external device by the user without forgetting to enable reading from the recording medium at the time of use, is inexpensively accomplished. The container with an opening provided with a recording medium, from which recorded information is able to be read, includes a seal attached to the recording medium. The seal includes a read-blocking section for blocking reading of the information recorded on the recording medium and an extending portion for sealing the opening of the container.

Abstract: An image forming portion carries out image formation processing where an image is formed an a recording medium on the basis of image information and is provided with a drive motor portion for driving predetermined mechanisms employed in the image formation processing and a control sensor portion for controlling the predetermined mechanisms, and a power source portion for supplying electric power to the image forming portion. A start instruction detecting portion detects start instruction to start the image formation processing, and a power source control portion inhibits the power source portion from supplying the electric power to the drive motor portion and/or the control sensor portion before the start instruction detecting portion detects the start instruction when the image formation processing is not being performed.

Abstract: A stencil printer includes a rotary printing drum around which the stencil master is wrapped, a main motor which rotates the printing drum, a press roller which is rotatable in parallel to the printing drum in contact with the printing drum, and a pair of opposed conveyor rollers which feed a printing paper between the printing drum and the press roller. A conveyor roller motor is provided separately from the main motor and drives the conveyor rollers. A printing drum rotation detector detects rotation of the printing drum on the basis of the reference position, and a conveyor roller rotation detector detects rotation of at least one of the conveyor rollers.

A conveyor roller motor is provided separately from the main motor and drives the conveyor rollers. A reference position sensor detects a reference position on the printing drum, a printing drum rotation detector detects rotation of the printing drum on the basis of the reference position, and a conveyor roller rotation detector detects rotation of at least one of the conveyor rollers.
