Abstract: The present invention provides a manufacturing method for a display device according to which an unused portion can be cut out without damaging the surface having an electrode terminal. The manufacturing method is for a display device having at least one display region formed between a first substrate on which an electrode terminal is formed and a second substrate made of a resin, and has the steps of creating a scribe line on the second substrate and pasting a columnar body of revolution of which the round surface is made of an elastic body and adhesive to the outer surface of the second substrate so that the second substrate is bent as the body of revolution rolls over the second substrate, which is thus cut along the scribe line.

Abstract: When a display device is formed using a plastic substrate, a yield is increased for separating individual display devices from a mother substrate. On a mother TFT substrate, plural TFT substrates are formed each of which includes a display region and terminal portions. On a mother opposed substrate formed of a plastic substrate having a thickness of 200 ?m or less, display regions are formed so as to correspond to the display regions formed on the mother TFT substrate. On the mother opposed substrate, terminal openings are formed beforehand so as to correspond to the terminal portions formed on the mother TFT substrate. With this configuration, when the display devices are separated from the mother substrate, it is not necessary to perform half cutting for exposing the terminal portions, so that the display devices can be manufactured with high yields.

Abstract: An ink-jet recording apparatus capable of high-quality recording without smudging recording media and the interior of the recording apparatus even when a frameless recording operation using reactive ink that coheres with each other when mixed together is performed. The ink-jet recording apparatus includes a recording head having a first nozzle array and a second nozzle array, and an ink absorbent facing the nozzle arrays.
