Abstract: A recording apparatus to record an image on a recording medium using a recording head includes a first conveying roller, a second conveying roller, and a controller. The first conveying roller is positioned upstream of the recording head in a conveying direction and the second conveying roller is positioned downstream of the recording head in the conveying direction. In response to a first conveying mode being selected, the controller performs a rotational phase control in which the controller controls rotational phases of the first conveying roller and the second conveying roller such that the recording medium is conveyed by predetermined sections of circumferences of the first conveying roller and the second conveying roller when a trailing end of the recording medium passes the first conveying roller. In response to the second conveying mode being selected, the controller does not perform the rotational phase control.

Abstract: Transmission of transmission packets from communication terminals (20) is executed with a probability based on the total number of communication terminals (20) present within a communication area (NA). It is thus possible to determine when to transmit with simple computation, and promptly transmit information. Since when to transmit can be determined with simple computation, when to transmit can promptly be determined according to continuously changing traffic conditions and the throughput of the communication system can be maintained at a high level when the communication terminals (20) are mounted on vehicles.

Abstract: A content transmitting apparatus includes a content transmitting unit (111) that IP packetizes content to be transmitted through a communication network (101), and an encapsulating unit (112) that encapsulates the content IP packetized by the content transmitting unit (111) to generate a transmission packet to be transmitted through a broadcast network (102) for digital broadcast media. The content transmitting unit (111) and the encapsulating unit (112) transmit plural content items by IP multicast. The content transmitting unit (111) adds, to a header of the content to be IP packetized, information concerning a condition of a receiving side node of the content.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes guide rails that each control the posture of a carriage at an arbitrary recording position by being in contact with the carriage. The guide rails are disposed on respective sides of a guide shaft in a direction in which a recording medium is conveyed. The length of a gap between the recording medium and the carriage is selectable between a case where the carriage is in contact with one of the guide rails and a case where the carriage is in contact with the other guide rail. Such a configuration provides a compact and low-cost recording apparatus capable of performing recording on recording media having various thicknesses by appropriately adjusting the gap between the carriage and any of the recording medium while maintaining the parallelism therebetween.
