To optimize an arrangement route for a tube arranged between an ink tank and a carriage, when arranging the ink tank outside an ink jet printer main body. A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting apparatus main bodyejecting a liquid onto a recording medium from a liquid ejecting head mounted on a carriage; a liquid containing bodyarranged inside the liquid ejecting apparatus main body; and a liquid supply tubearranged between the liquid containing bodyand the carriage, in which an inner space S is provided which is formed from the liquid ejecting head and a discharge port including a region where the recording medium is discharged, and the liquid containing bodyis arranged in the inner space S.

Liquid ejecting apparatus

Provided is a recording apparatus allowing for a reduction in size of an ink jet recording apparatus. An ink jet recording apparatus includes a head unit that has a recording head which ejects ink and a relay adapter which relays an ink accommodating portion where ink is accommodated with the recording head, and is movable in a scanning direction of the recording head, and an ink tube that is connected to the relay adapter, guides ink which is sent from the ink accommodating portion to the relay adapter, and has flexibility, in which a height difference is formed in an upper portion of an adapter accommodating portion, where the relay adapter is accommodated, of the head unit, and the ink tube extends outside the head unit by using a space between a high position and a low position of the adapter accommodating portion.

A liquid containing bodyarranged inside the liquid ejecting apparatus main bodyand a liquid supply tubearranged between the liquid containing bodyand the carriage, in which an inner space S is provided which is formed from the liquid ejecting head and a discharge port including a region where the recording medium is discharged, and the liquid containing bodyis arranged in the inner space S.

An arrangement path of a tube arranged between an ink tank and a carriage is optimized in a case where the ink tank is arranged in an outer portion or the like of an ink jet printer main body. A liquid ejecting apparatusincludes a liquid ejecting apparatus main bodythat ejects a liquid from a liquid ejecting head which is mounted on a carriage, a liquid accommodating bodythat is arranged in an external area or the like of the liquid ejecting apparatus main body, and liquid supply tubesthat are arranged between the liquid accommodating bodyand the carriage. The liquid ejecting apparatus further includes a paper discharge frame that is arranged along a scanning direction of the liquid ejecting head on a further forward side than the liquid ejecting head. A part of the liquid supply tubesis fixed to a frame member paper discharge frame.

An ink jet recording apparatus includes a head unit, a discharge port including a region where a recording medium on which a recording is performed by the recording head is discharged and an ink tube having flexibility, that is connected to the head unit and leads the ink from an ink containing unit. The ink tube protrudes to the outside of the apparatus from discharge port side of the front surface.

A recording apparatus includes a paper supply traythat is provided on an upstream side of a transport direction in which recording paper P is transported, and which can feed the recording paper P from a first aperture portionprovided in a housing, a guide member, which is provided in the paper supply traywall surface portionof the housing, and an ink tubethat passes through gap sections Sand Sbetween the guide memberand the wall surface portion and supplies ink from an ink accommodation portionwhich is provided outside the housingto a recording headthat is attached to a carriage

Recording apparatus

A printing apparatus includes an extracting section configured to extract first and second images from an original document such that the first and second images partially overlap at an overlapping portion, and a control section configured to execute printing onto a first medium based on the first image using a layout in which at least a portion of the overlapping portion of the first image extends beyond a first edge of the first medium and a margin is formed between a second edge and an image edge of the first image, and to execute printing onto a second medium based on the second image using a layout in which at least a portion of the overlapping portion of the second image extends beyond a first edge of the second medium and a margin is formed between a second edge and an image edge of the second image.

Printing system, printing control method, and printing control program

A transported medium transporting apparatus includes a transported medium transporting device and at least one pressing driven roller. The transported medium transporting device transports a transported medium in a predetermined transportation direction. The pressing driven roller is driven so that the pressing driven roller contacts one surface of the transported medium, which is transported by the transported medium transporting device. The pressing driven roller includes a rotary body and a shaft portion, both of which are made of elastic synthetic resin and formed integrally with each other. A plurality of protrusions are formed on the rotary body at regular intervals in a circumferential direction of the rotary body. The shaft portion rotatably supports the rotary body so that the rotary body can be driven. The pressing driven roller has a shape such that the rotary body contacts the transported medium with a predetermined pressing force owing to an elastic force of the shaft portion.

Transported medium transporting apparatus and recording apparatus

A data communication apparatus to receive data for which continuity is ensured, without receiving the same data repeatedly. In the data communication apparatus, when a bus reset arises, and a reconnection request is received from a computer that informed the Command Block Agent ORB, whose execution was interrupted by that bus reset, the job execution part specifies print data that has not been obtained out of the print data of the storage area described in the ORB. The print data that has not been obtained is based on the number of Read Block Requests or Read Block Response, counted by the execution status monitoring part. Then, the job execution part makes a packet for print data generating part generate a Read Block Request to read only the print data that has not been obtained from the computer, and sends it to the computer.

Data communications apparatus for resuming data transfer after interruption

A non-contact power supply device having a primary unit and a secondary unit of a coupling transformer for driving a load such as decoration lamps. The primary unit is installed inside of premises and the secondary unit is installed outside of the premises and the decoration lamps are connected to the secondary unit. The primary unit and the secondary unit are attached to an intervening body such as a window or a wall in a face-to-face fashion. The non-contact power supply device is able to control and change an output voltage of the secondary unit and lighting patters of the decoration lamps solely from the inside of the premises without need for a user to go outside.
