Abstract: A control section performs overlap printing in a second mode using black ink, which is achromatic. For example, when five continuous raster lines are formed, all of the five raster lines are formed by nozzles included in a downstream end nozzle group, nozzles included in an upstream end nozzle group, and nozzles included in an intermediate nozzle group. The control section performs overlap printing in a first mode using another ink that is a chromatic color. For example, when five continuous raster lines are formed, one raster line is formed by nozzles included in the downstream end nozzle group, nozzles included in the upstream end nozzle group, and nozzles included in the intermediate nozzle group, and the other four raster lines are formed by two nozzles included in the intermediate nozzle group.

Abstract: A cap frame includes a body member including an arc-shaped curved wall extending in a particular direction, an attaching portion connected to the body member, and a retaining member including a clamping portion having a plurality of protrusions aligned along the particular direction, and a facing portion. The attaching portion is removably attachable to a moving mechanism of an embroidery machine. In a state where the retaining member is attached to the body member, the clamping portion is elastically deformed in conformance with the curved wall and presses, toward the curved wall, a cap sandwiched between the curved wall and the clamping portion. The facing portion faces the curved wall of the body member. Each protrusion extends toward the curved wall from a leading end of the facing portion in a removing direction and faces a leading end of the curved wall of the body member in the removing direction.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus of the present disclosure extracts, when the number of carpool vehicles falls below a predetermined lower limit, a driver user candidate who is a candidate of a user who can let carpool demanding users carpool in a vehicle he/she drives. The information processing apparatus of the present disclosure then transmits information that requests consent to let the carpool demanding users carpool in the vehicle driven by the driver user candidate, to a terminal used by the extracted driver user candidate, that is, information for requesting consent to provide the vehicle which is owned by each driver user candidate or the ownership right of which is owned by each driver user candidate as a carpool vehicle, thereby promoting an increase in the number of carpool vehicles.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure sets, when determining a combination between a driver user who drives a vehicle and fellow passenger users who ride in the vehicle, a route through which the vehicle driven by the driver user can pass from a place of departure to a destination of the driver user, the route being predicted to allow the driver user to arrive at the destination by a date and time desired by the driver user, as a scheduled traveling route. The information processing apparatus then combines the driver user and a fellow passenger user whose getting-in spot and getting-off spot are located on the scheduled traveling route among fellow passenger users desiring to ride in the vehicle.
