Abstract: A medium transport device includes a first transporter configured to transport a medium by nipping the medium along with rotation, a second transporter configured to transport the medium and disposed on an upstream side of the first transporter in a transport direction of the medium, a first adjuster configured to adjust a position of the medium in a width direction by moving the first transporter and the second transporter in the width direction of the medium with the medium nipped by the first transporter and the second transporter, and a second adjuster configured to adjust a contact pressure of the first transporter for the medium and a contact pressure of the second transporter for the medium based on resistance caused when the medium is moved in the width direction.

Abstract: A sheet transporting device includes: a skew correcting component configured to correct any skew of a sheet by executing speed-gap driving in which first and second transporting components that are arranged at respective positions in a direction intersecting a direction of sheet transport are driven for a predetermined time period with a speed gap between the first and second transporting components; and a changing component configured to change, with reference to a characteristic relevant to sheet transport, a state of the speed-gap driving of the skew correcting component.

Abstract: A sheet transporting device includes first and second position correcting components provided at respective positions in a direction of sheet transport and each being configured to correct a position of a sheet in a direction intersecting the direction of sheet transport by being shifted in the direction intersecting the direction of sheet transport while holding the sheet, and a changing component capable of changing an amount of correction of the position of the sheet individually for the first and second position correcting components.

Abstract: Compressed image data for a plurality of sheets of original transmitted from another party is demodulated, expanded by a modem 1 and a facsimile control portion 2, and reduced at a reduction processing portion 11, and the image data after the reduction is transferred to a printing control portion 8. In a first embodiment, the reduced image data for one sheet of original is printed out by a printing portion on a sheet of recording paper from its one end in a main scanning direction. After printing of the image data for the one sheet is completed, the sheet of recording paper is rewound, and then the reduced image data for the second page is printed out laterally to the main scanning direction of the image data of the first page.

Abstract: A solid state color imaging sensor develops a green color signal and a red color signal in the first line of an odd field, and develops a green color signal and a blue color signal in the second line of the odd field. A first one line (1H) delay circuit is included in a signal processing circuit so as to produce a high frequency component signal of a luminance signal. A second one line (1H) delay circuit is included in the signal processing circuit so as to produce a low frequency component of the luminance signal and the color information signal.
