Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a printing unit configured to print an image on a print medium, an acquiring unit configured to acquire temperature information of the printing unit, and a control unit configured to control the printing unit so as to start relative scanning in a case where a temperature that is indicated by the temperature information has reached a print permission temperature. The print permission temperature in a first print mode whose speed at a time of a constant speed in relative scanning is a first speed is a first temperature. The print permission temperature in a second print mode whose speed at the time of the constant speed is a second speed that is faster than the first speed is a second temperature that is lower than the first temperature.

Abstract: An inkjet printing apparatus adopting short pulse heating is designed to output a uniform image without unevenness. To this end, in a serial inkjet printing apparatus, a print head is subjected to a short pulse heating treatment before each print scan is carried out. In a case where a print medium is a first print medium, the print head is heated to a first target temperature before carrying out each of the print scans. In a case where the print medium is a second print medium, the print head is heated to a second target temperature lower than the first target temperature before carrying out each of the print scans.

Abstract: An electronic musical instrument has a generator assigner for supplying note data and octave data by key stroke entry, a top octave synthesizer for generating 12 of the highest pitch signals for each note, a circuit for selecting one highest pitch signal from the 12 highest pitch signals according to note data, a binary counter for dividing one highest pitch signal to produce several pitch signals, and circuits for selecting one pitch signal out of several pitch signals obtained by the binary counter. The circuits are further controlled by both octave data and note data to generate octave series tone signals and non-octave series tone signals such as quint series tone signals.
