  • Patent number: 8398069
    Abstract: A paper feeder, a control method thereof, and an image forming apparatus having the same are provided. The paper feeder includes a moving member to push paper loaded on one paper loader to another empty paper loader. With regard to operation of the moving member, the stop time of the moving member may be variable based on a paper size input by a user, which enables a stop position of the moving member to be automatically adjusted based on the paper size, resulting in enhanced user convenience.

  • Patent number: 8125424
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof, which are capable of preventing generation of a residual image upon power-off, are disclosed. The liquid crystal display device includes a power supply unit for outputting a plurality of drive voltages after delaying the drive voltages, a voltage detector for monitoring one of the drive voltages, and outputting a power-off detect signal based on the result of the monitoring, a timing controller for increasing a frequency of a control signal in response to the power-off detect signal, and outputting the frequency-increased control signal, a gate driver for outputting a scan signal in response to the frequency-increased control signal, a data driver for outputting a constant voltage in response to another control signal from the timing controller, and a liquid crystal panel for applying the constant voltage to all sub-pixels of the liquid crystal panel in response to the scan signal.
