Patent number: 9055526Abstract: A communication device calculates a signal travelling time indicating a time period from a first time at which the signal has been transmitted from the communication device, to a second time at which the transmitted signal is expected to arrive at another communication device serving as a communication partner. The communication device retransmits the signal to the another communication device when a retransmission request of the signal is received from the another communication device after the signal has been transmitted to the another communication device, and suspends a retransmission of the signal when the retransmission request is received again from the another communication device before the signal travelling time elapses from the first time.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2013Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Hideaki Yoshida, Takafumi Kawashima, Yukimasa Yoshida, Tomoaki Kaneda

Patent number: 7257338Abstract: An image forming apparatus that forms an image having proper density regardless of changes in a charged amount of developer per unit mass is provided. When image data is received in a laser printer, a main motor is driven to rotate a photosensitive drum, etc., and charging bias is applied to a charger to charge the photosensitive drum. Then, paper is fed. Predetermined current detection developing bias is applied to a developing roller for a predetermined period of time. A current value of a developing current during the application is detected. Developing bias applied to the developing roller is calculated so as to keep constant density in the printed image. Particularly, a charged amount of toner per unit mass (Q/M) is calculated from the detected current value. Based on the Q/M, the developing bias is calculated. A print process is performed by applying the developing bias to the developing roller.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2005Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Yukimasa Yoshida
