Abstract: A print control apparatus includes rendering units performing rendering in response to a print instruction described in a page description language; a print instruction storage unit storing the print instruction for printing pages; a distribution unit sequentially distributing process requests, each specifying which page is to be rendered, and reference information for accessing the print instruction, to the rendering units; and a process request storage unit storing process requests. The rendering units each execute rendering by accessing the print instruction based on the reference information, and extracting a part of the print instruction of a specified page to image data. The distribution unit distributes a process request when there is a rendering unit to which the process request is distributable in ascending order, and, when there is no such rendering unit, stores the process request, and selects and distributes a smallest-page-number process request to one rendering unit.

Abstract: A vehicle driving apparatus configured with a drive power source, a fluid coupling, a transmission apparatus; and a control apparatus. A rotation of a drive input member driven by the drive power source is transmitted to a shift input member via the fluid coupling and a rotation of the shift input member is shifted by the transmission apparatus and then transmitted to an output member. When a state shift command for shifting from a non-transmission state to a transmission state is input into a control apparatus in a state in which the drive power source does not generate a driving force, the control apparatus performs a shift input rotation operation before engaging a frictional engagement element and shifting to the transmission state by causing the drive power source to generate the driving force and rotating the shift input member via the fluid coupling while maintaining the non-transmission state.

Abstract: A print control apparatus includes a rendering unit, a sending unit, a distribution unit, and a saving unit. The rendering unit performs rendering in response to a print instruction described in a page-dependent page description language where details of a change of a print resource on a certain page are applied to other pages. The sending unit sends the entire print instruction including pages to the rendering unit. The distribution unit distributes, to the rendering unit, a process request specifying which of the pages is to be rendered. The saving unit saves a process state of the rendering unit after rendering a preset page. When executing rendering by extracting the print instruction of the page specified by the distributed process request to image data, if the process request is distributed in descending order, the rendering unit resumes the process state saved in the saving unit, and renders the specified page.
