  • Patent number: 11250301
    Abstract: To provide an image processing apparatus capable of associating print data with channels with a simple configuration and transferring the print data to an appropriate print head, an image processing apparatus stores print data corresponding to each ink in a data buffer in association with ink information indicating each ink. The image processing apparatus includes a table retention unit which stores an address of a channel buffer associated with each of a plurality of print heads in association with the ink information, and transfers each print data to an address associated with the ink information. The image processing apparatus can rewrite an association between the addresses and the ink information stored in the table retention unit.

  • Patent number: 10122867
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus performs printing based on a print job and determines whether printing for a first print job and a second print job having been received after the first print job can be made continuously based on a progress of printing for the first print job. In a case where it is determined that the printing for the first print job and the second print job can be made continuously, print media to be used for printing for the second print job is fed to a conveyance path before completing outputting printouts for the first print job.

  • Patent number: 8565286
    Abstract: For channelization codes CC#1 to CC#15, the despreading circuit comprises an FHT circuit with a spreading factor of 16 which outputs the results of despreading of an HS-PDCH. An adder is connected to the FHT circuit at an output terminal thereof corresponding to channelization code CC#0. The adder is connected to a memory to which is input the value obtained by adding an output of the FHT circuit to an output of a selector connected to the memory via a feedback line. By performing the addition 16 times in the adder, the result of despreading of a PCPICH is output.

  • Patent number: 6845406
    Abstract: Prior to the initialization, CPU of information processing equipment makes a decision about whether a communication line has been connected to a connector or not. When the two are connected, the CPU does not carry out the initialization and shifts xDSL modem to lower power consumption mode. The connection is checked as follows. A test signal is transmitted through the xDSL modem. This signal is reflected by the connector and reflection is received by hybrid circuit. When the energy of this echo is large it means that the communication line it not connected to the connector, when the energy is small it means that the two are connected.
