Abstract: A data-generating unit of an inkjet recording apparatus recognizes, based on a detection signal of a recording medium output from a recording medium detection sensor, an open part region that is a region of an open part located in a position shifted from a recording medium detected by the recording medium detection sensor in a transport direction among regions of a plurality of open parts included in an open part reading data read by an open part detection sensor to generate flushing data in accordance with the open part region. A flushing control unit recognizes at least one non-image-forming period in which the open part corresponding to the region passes a position facing the recording head by running of the transport belt, based on the detection signal, and causes the recording head to execute flushing, based on flushing data, in the at least one non-image-forming period.

Abstract: A remote communication support system includes a transmission device and a receiving device. The receiving device is connected to the transmission device via a network. The transmission device includes an imaging portion, a control portion, and a communication portion. The imaging portion images an image. The control portion processes the image imaged by the imaging portion in accordance with a rule corresponding to a mask-release level for a communication counterparty. The communication portion transmits the image processed by the control portion to the receiving device of the communication counterparty.

Abstract: An information input device includes a display, a touch sensor, and a controller. The display displays a plurality of objects. The touch sensor outputs a signal indicating a touch position at which the touch surface is touched. When receiving the signal indicating the touch position, the controller determines whether or not the touch position is a position corresponding to any of the objects. When determining that the touch position is a position corresponding to any of the objects, the controller accepts the touch as a touch operation. When accepting the touch operation, the controller sets a portion of the touch surface as an erroneous input restriction region. The controller sets the erroneous input restriction region based on the touch position. When determining that the touch operation is cancelled, the controller changes the erroneous input restriction region based on the touch position.

Abstract: A communicating device of the present disclosure includes a mail receiving part and a mail creating part. The mail receiving part receives a received mail and stores the received mail in a received mail folder. The mail creating part creates a reply mail to a specified received mail in the received mail folder. The mail creating part searches the other received mail having the same title as the specified received mail from the received mail folder, and obtains main texts excluding a history portion from respective full texts of the specified received mail and the other received mail and adds the obtained main texts as a history to the reply mail.

Abstract: An operation input device includes a touch panel, a hand detecting processor, and a region setting processor. The hand detecting processor detects a position and a shape of a hand that is proximate to the touch panel. The region setting processor sets a touch invalid region in the touch panel based on the position and the shape of the hand detected by the hand detecting processor.

Abstract: A presentation support system includes a presentation control portion, an imaging portion, and a number-of-watching-persons determining portion. The presentation control portion displays a presentation image on a screen in sequence. The imaging portion images a front of the screen from a screen side. The number-of-watching-persons determining portion determines a number of watching persons who are watching the presentation image, based on image data output from the imaging portion.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image generating unit and a printing device. The image generating unit is configured to generate a document image based on document data of a user. The printing device is configured to print the document image. If a character appears plural times in the document data, the image generating unit converts the character that appears plural times to respective user-specific handwritten characters that are different from each other.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a voice recorder, a retrieval section, and an analysis section. The information processing device utilizes a meeting report on a meeting. The voice recorder records utterances during the meeting. The retrieval section retrieves an utterance of a term entered in the meeting report from among the utterances recorded on the voice recorder. The analysis section analyzes a content of the meeting based on the utterance of the term.

Abstract: Provided is an authentication apparatus that can register the fingerprint data for collation for comparing with the read fingerprint data, easily. A fingerprint reading part reads fingerprint data at the time of the touch operation of the input identification code. A fingerprint data collating part, specifies authentication identification code and authenticates a user by comparing the read fingerprint data and the authentication fingerprint data associated with the authentication identification code and stored in the memory part. Authentication-fingerprint-data registering part, when the authentication fingerprint data correspond with the read fingerprint data are not stored, and when the authentication identification code corresponded with the input identification code is stored, associates the read fingerprint data with the authentication identification code corresponded with the input identification code as authentication fingerprint data and store it in the memory part.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a job execution portion, a screen data processing portion, and a display processing portion. The job execution portion is configured to access a memory connected via a bus and execute a job associated with image processing. The screen data processing portion is configured to store predetermined first screen data in the memory when the job is not being executed by the job execution portion, and store, in the memory, predetermined second screen data having a data amount less than the first screen data when the job is being executed by the job execution portion. The display processing portion is configured to display a screen based on the first screen data or the second screen data which is stored in the memory connected via the bus.
