Abstract: Each storage controller comprises a first storage unit, an interface unit, and a processing unit which sends, to the interface unit, a parameter which instructs n-fold write of writing data in each of n-number of (n is a natural number of 2 or more) other storage controllers. When the interface unit receives the parameter, the interface unit executes each processing of acquiring the data from the first storage unit and storing the data in the second storage unit, generating n-number of requests of writing the data in each of n-number of the other storage controllers, storing each of the generated requests in n-number of the queues corresponding to each of n-number of the other storage controllers, and processing each request stored in each queue and transferring the data stored in the second storage unit to each of n-number of the other storage controllers.

Abstract: Black inverted noises in a white background due to resolution correction are reduced by an image processing apparatus which carries out image modification processing to invert at least a portion of a binary converted signal obtained from binary conversion of an image signal. An image signal S1 is respectively input to resolution correction means 201 and 202 using different correction amounts. The signal is then input to selecting means 310 from the both resolution correction means. The signal output from the selecting means is input to binary conversion means 400 and a signal S2 output therefrom is input to image modification processing means 500. when image modification processing has been instructed, a control signal CNT1 is input to the selecting means 310 and the selecting means output a signal with weak resolution correction from the resolution correction means 202 using a small correction amount.

Abstract: A stencil printing apparatus includes a main body, a drum unit having a drum substantially in a cylindrical shape and attachable to and detachable from the main body, a drum detecting device for detecting a kind of the drum unit mounted to the main body and a control device for carrying out an auto idling operation prior to a successive perforating operation in a case when a non-operational time period of the main body exceeds a previously set time period or when the drum detecting device detects interchanging of the drum unit.
