20130164019 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An electronic device includes a first voltage output part configured to output a first voltage, a second voltage output part configured to output a second voltage, a first controller configured to receive the first voltage supplied from the first voltage output part, a second controller configured to receive the first voltage supplied from the first voltage output part, and a third controller configured to receive the second voltage supplied from the second voltage output part. The first controller stops the supply of the first voltage to the second controller by the first voltage output part after the supply of the second voltage to the third controller by the second voltage output part has been stopped. | 06-27-2013 |
20140176985 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes a main body and a replaceable component. The main body includes a first storage unit storing first authentication informations for authentication with the replaceable component, a data storage unit storing authentication data for choosing the first authentication information. The replaceable component includes a second storage unit storing second authentication informations corresponding to the first authentication information. Authentication data is set to be different among different image forming apparatuses. The main body attempts authentication with the replaceable component using the first authentication information chosen based on the authentication data. When the second authentication information corresponding to the chosen first authentication information is stored, a control unit establishes connection between communication units of the main body and the replaceable component. | 06-26-2014 |
20140186061 | IMAGE FORMATION APPARATUS - An image formation apparatus includes an image formation apparatus body, and a replacement member detachably provided in the image formation apparatus body and configured to be used for image formation. The replacement member includes a first storage to store a life determination value used in life determination of the replacement member. The image formation apparatus body includes a connection section configured to be connected to the first storage of the replacement member, and a controller configured to operate in: a first processing mode of accessing the first storage of the replacement member to acquire the life determination value and managing the life of the replacement member based on the acquired life determination value; and a second processing mode of managing the life of the replacement member such that the quality of image formation using the replacement member is not lower than that obtained through operation in the first processing mode. | 07-03-2014 |

20110270980 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Apparatus identification information about wireless access apparatuses judged to be able to communicate with a monitoring apparatus, among multiple wireless access apparatuses, is stored in a neighborhood database. If there is apparatus identification information that is not stored in the neighborhood database, among apparatus identification information stored in a registration database in which apparatus identification information about wireless access apparatuses registered as monitoring targets of the monitoring apparatus is stored, it is judged again for a wireless access apparatus to which the apparatus identification information is given whether communication is possible, after a predetermined time elapses. On the other hand, if there is no such apparatus information, or if the judgment is performed again for a predetermined number of times, the apparatus identification information stored in the neighborhood database is copied to the registration database. | 11-03-2011 |
20130308437 | STP PATHWAY CONTROL SYSTEM APPLIED TO WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE HAVING AMR FUNCTION - A pathway control system, implementing control and setting for a communication pathway between wireless communication devices each implementing wired communication and wireless communication and each equipped with an AMR function, detects communication speed with respect to uplink wireless communication and downlink wireless communication in each wireless communication device, thus determining which one of uplink wireless communication and downlink wireless communication undergoes communication failure. It carries out adaptive modulation control on uplink wireless communication or downlink wireless communication, which undergoes communication failure, calculates new communication speed, and carries out STP pathway control based on new communication speed. Irrespective of a reduction of line speed due to activation of an AMR function, it is possible to automatically switch to redundant pathways by way of STP pathway control; it is possible to prevent momentary disconnection of wireless communication; and it is possible to maintain an adequate capacity for communication pathways. | 11-21-2013 |
