Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a transmission apparatus, a transmission method, a reception apparatus, and a reception method that can ensure a reduced processing burden on a receiving side in LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) communication. Communication data is sent and received at a communication time of day and a communication frequency based on group identification information set for groups into which a plurality of transmission apparatuses is divided and communication interval information shared by the transmission apparatuses and a reception apparatus, rather than individual identification information. The present disclosure is applicable to an LPWA communication system.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a transmission device, a transmission method, a reception device, a reception method, and a communication method capable of shortening a pause time of data transmission. According to an aspect of the present technology, a transmission device classifies channels usable for data transmission into a plurality of groups, selects the channels that are used in transmission units and that continue on a time axis from the channels of the different groups in accordance with an identifier, and performs the data transmission of the transmission units by using the selected channels. It is possible to make application to a communication system transmitting data through one-way communication from a transmission device to a reception device.

Abstract: A printer includes: a housing; a platen holder; a platen roller; a printing head; an operation member; a first link; a second link; a connection member having a connecting portion connecting the first link to the second link; and a movable member moving the platen holder in response to a pivotal movement of the second link to move the platen roller toward and away from the printing head. When the operation member is moved within a first movable range, the second link is pivotally moved while the first link and the connecting portion are maintained at a first positional relationship. When the operation member is moved within a second movable range different from the first movable range, a positional relationship between the first link and the connecting portion is changed from the first positional relationship to a second positional relationship while the second link is maintained stationary.
