An image forming apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to stop a print job under execution in response to an occurrence of an abnormality preventing the print job from continuing, set the stopped print job to a skip state, and restart the print job set to the skip state in response to a restart instruction by a user associated with the print job and not by a second user different from the user associated with the print job.

Image forming apparatus and control method thereof including control of print job

A printing apparatus includes a data storage, a first printer, a communication interface, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine a security level of print data received, based on security setting data for the print data, when determining that the security level is a first security level, control the first printer to print the print data with the decolorable material and control the data storage to store the print data and the security setting data for the print data, and when determining that the security level is a second security level that is lower than the first security level, control the first printer to print the print data with the decolorable material and control the data storage not to store the print data and store the security setting data for the print data in the data storage.

Printing apparatus that processes print data based on security setting data

A printing apparatus includes a printing unit configured to perform printing with a decolorable material, a communication unit configured to receive print data and security setting data for the print data from an external device, and a control unit configured to determine a security level of the print data based on the security setting data received by the communication unit and control the printing unit to print or not print the print data based on the security level.

According to one embodiment, a circuit for compensating fluctuation of a base current of a transistor is presented. The transistor has a base connected with an input terminal. The compensation circuit is provided with a first transistor, a current mirror circuit and a second transistor. The current mirror circuit mirrors a current which is supplied to a base of the first transistor. Further, the current mirror circuit supplies the obtained mirror current to the base of the transistor to be compensated. A base of the second transistor is connected with the input terminal electrically. The second transistor causes an early effect in the first transistor.

This invention provides a data compression method for efficiently compressing data based on data periodicity. To compress an input data stream and output the encoded stream, encoded input data is stored in a moving window having a predetermined size. A partial sequence starting from a given position (entry) in the moving window is compared with a data sequence to be encoded by a plurality of comparators. An entry having a maximum matching length is found by a matching finder in comparison by the plurality of comparators. When matching is found by the matching finder, a pair of offsets up to the entry and a matching length (offsets and matching length) are encoded by a matching code generator. The number of comparators is smaller than the size of the moving window, and some of offsets near offset 0 (0 indicates including no offset), offsets near offset L, offsets near offset 2L, offsets near offsets 3L, . . . are used as entries.

A formed thermoplastic resin article is made of a thermoplastic resin and a foamed elastic polymer finely dispersed in the thermoplastic resin. The formed thermoplastic resin article can be produced by blending an elastic polymer, in which an endothermic foaming agent decomposable at a temperature of at least 160.degree. C. was mixed in advance at a temperature lower than a decomposition temperature of the endothermic foaming agent, in a thermoplastic resin and then plasticizing and forming the resultant resin blend at a temperature at least equal to the decomposition temperature of the endothermic foaming agent.

Formed thermoplastic resin article and production process thereof

Novel peptide derivatives of the following formula ##STR1## wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof and analogous copounds thereof. Since the derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the present invention possess stronger actions on central nervous system (e.g. antagonistic action against hypothermia, locomotor stimulant action, signal reflex stimulant action), they are of use as a therapeutic medicament for central nervous disorders such as impaired consciousness, depression, hypomnesia, the like in association association with schizophrenia, melancholia, senile dementia, sequelae of cerebrovascular disorders, head trauma, epilepsy and spinocerebellar degeneracy.

Histidyl peptide derivatives

The invention is directed to a matrix-addressed display device having a matrix-addressed display element such as a liquid crystal element. The device comprises a sampling frequency generator generating sampling frequency signals. By the sampling frequency signals, the serially input video signals are sampled, held and consequently converted serial to parallel. The sampling frequency generator is provided with means for stopping the sampling frequency signal in periods when serial-parallel conversion is not required.

Matrix-addressed display device

An earthquake-proof foundation structure for a horizontal type coke oven battery which comprises: a pile plate rigidly connected substantially in a horizontal position to the tops of a plurality of foundation piles; a base plate for mounting thereon a horizontal type coke oven battery, said base plate being placed substantially in a horizontal position on said pile plate; two sliding layers, each arranged between said pile plate and said base plate and between said base plate and said coke oven battery, each of said two sliding layers being formed by tightly laying a plurality of steel sheets coated with graphite grease over the entire surface thereof into two or three laminations; the lower surface of said coke oven battery or the upper surface of said base plate being provided with a longitudinal ridge and a plurality of transverse ridges, while the upper surface of said base plate or the lower surface of said coke oven battery being provided with a longitudinal groove and a plurality of transverse grooves to engage with said longitudinal and transverse ridges at locations corresponding to said ridges; and said pile plate and said base plate being connected to each other on the both longitudinal sides thereof by a plurality of buffers each of which comprises a bolt fixed with a plurality of reinforcing ribs at the lower portion thereof and an elastic ring engaging with the upper portion of said bolt.
