  • Publication number: 20240100862
    Abstract: Provided is a technique that enables proper sorting of discharged print media by suppressing curling of each of the print media sufficiently. A determining unit determines a curling suppressing operation to be executed such that in a case where sorting operation is executed, the suppressing operation having a higher effect of suppressing curling is executed than in a case where the sorting operation is executed. Then, a print control unit controls a print head to perform printing on print media while executing the suppressing operation determined by the determining unit.

  • Publication number: 20240102688
    Abstract: An indoor unit included in an air conditioner that includes an outdoor unit includes a power receiving circuit (PR2), a low-frequency transmission and reception circuit as a first reception circuit, a high-frequency transmission and reception circuit as a transmission and reception circuit, and an inner-controller. The low-frequency transmission and reception circuit receives a current signal transmitted from an outdoor unit by using a current loop formed by a power line included in power supply wiring. For a first communication state in which physical connection between with the outdoor unit is recognized and a second communication state in which communication for operation of the air conditioner is performed between with the outdoor unit, the inner-controller selects use of the low-frequency transmission and reception circuit and the high-frequency transmission and reception circuit in the first communication state and the second communication state.

  • Publication number: 20220150915
    Abstract: A plurality of schedulers each corresponding to one or more slices perform, in a same cell formed by one RU, scheduling of radio resources for a UE that uses a corresponding slice. A RAN controller identifies, for each of a plurality of schedulers, an amount of radio resources required for each scheduler in a predetermined period T, based on an amount of data and a communication quality of wireless communication by the UE in the cell. The RAN controller further allocates, to each of the plurality of schedulers, the identified amount of radio resources and a margin of radio resources that can be used for the scheduling.
