  • Publication number: 20030202192
    Abstract: A conventional color printing device has a problem that the device cannot deal with a case where deviation occurs in a color ink ejecting amount due to age softening of a print head. Further, it also has a problem that an adjustment at a factory is required every device to increase manufacturing process, thereby being troublesome.

  • Patent number: 6621594
    Abstract: Although almost the same color reproducibility as with a reference print head has been attained in single-color printing, inconsistency in color reproducibility has occurred in mixed-color printing. Where ejection of color ink or any other recording material for forming dots on such a printer as an ink-jet printer (31) varies due to an instrumental error, it is burdensome to set up a degree of adjustment for correcting inconsistency in each color.

  • Publication number: 20020075853
    Abstract: A communication system is provided of selecting the most approximate line from two or more connectable lines and connecting with a provider through the selected line in the mobile communication environment. The mobile device and the public phone of each phone company provide a standard wireless data communication facility, respectively.

  • Patent number: 6404509
    Abstract: A method and system for correcting a deviation in color balance in an image output device, without the need for performing a direct adjustment to the hardware. Image output devices may include printers, displays, or other image output devices. Deviation data may be derived from the output characteristics of every element color of an image output device, and stored at the image output device. A color correction device is provided which has the ability to receive the deviation data, and produce image data having a color correction based on this deviation data. The system can then communicate the color corrected image data to the image output device. The color correction system also may be configured to discriminate among a plurality of image output devices, with each image output device having the ability to store their own inherent output characteristics at the image output device.

  • Patent number: 6274870
    Abstract: A correction curve (FIG. 19) is prepared by plotting 12CO2 concentrations and 13CO2/12CO2 concentration ratios which are determined on the basis of a calibration curve and 13CO2 and 12CO2 absorbances of gaseous samples having the same 13CO2/12CO2 concentration ratio but known different 12CO2 concentrations. A gaseous test sample containing 13CO2 and 12CO2 as component gases is introduced into a cell, and spectrometrically measured. A 12CO2 concentration of the gaseous test sample is determined by way of the spectrometric measurement. A concentration ratio correction value is obtained on the basis of the correction curve and the 12CO2 concentration of the gaseous test sample thus determined. A measured 13CO2/12CO2 concentration ratio is divided by the concentration ratio correction value thus obtained for correction of the 13CO2/12CO2 concentration ratio. Thus, the measurement accuracy of the concentration ratios of the component gases can be improved.
