In a perfume information processing system, a WEB server that provides contents containing perfume information, a perfume inquiry server that generates a perfume conversion table, and multiple clients that each includes a perfume emitting device are connected to a network. Each client sends information showing a perfume that should be emitted and information showing each stored perfume of its corresponding perfume emitting device to the perfume inquiry server and retrieves a perfume conversion table for converting the perfume that should be emitted into information showing a stored perfume. The client converts the perfume information contained in the contents retrieved from the WEB server into perfume information by referring to the perfume conversion table and controls perfume emission by the corresponding perfume emitting device based on the perfume information, thereby performing perfume emission.

Perfume information processing device, perfume information processing system, and perfume conversion table generating method

A method of manufacturing a recorded matter having an ink-receiving layer of a porous structure. The ink-receiving layer has an image region where an image is formed with a coloring material. The method includes the steps of (i) applying an ink to the ink-receiving layer to obtain an image region where an image is formed with a coloring material contained in the ink, (ii) applying a liquid comprising a non-volatile liquid not dissolving the coloring material to the ink-receiving layer, and (iii) forming a portion in which all or substantially all of the coloring material distributed in a thickness direction of the ink-receiving layer is embedded in the non-volatile liquid by rubbing the non-volatile liquid after it is applied. The non-volatile liquid contains an ester of a saturated fatty acid and an alcohol.

Recorded matter, method of producing recorded matter, method for improving image fastness, image fastness-improving agent, image fastness improving kit, dispenser, and applicator

In order to provide a recorded matter having image fastness to light and gas, disclosed is a recorded matter having an ink-receiving layer of a porous structure, wherein the ink-receiving layer has an image region where an image is formed with a coloring material, wherein the image region has a portion in which all or substantially all of the coloring material distributing in a thickness direction of the ink-receiving layer is embedded in a non-volatile liquid which does not dissolve the coloring material.

A liquid ejection head includes a liquid path; an ejection outlet forming member which constitutes a part of a wall of the liquid and which forms an ejection outlet for ejecting a droplet of liquid; a heat generating element, provided at a position opposing to the ejection outlet of the wall of the liquid flow path, for generating a bubble in the liquid by application of heat to the liquid; a restrictor portion, provided at a recessed portion of the ejection outlet, wherein the recessed portion is recessed from a plane in which the ejection outlet is formed, wherein the liquid forms a meniscus and is retained in the ejection outlet such that the restrictor portion is within the liquid, wherein an area So of an opening of the restrictor portion and a surface Sh of the heat generating element satisfy So&#x2266;Sh. According to this invention, a central portion of the meniscus opposed to the fine opening at the ejection outlet bulges, and the liquid is ejected in this state. Namely, very small amount of the liquid can be ejected, since not all of the liquid in the recess portion in the ejection outlet is ejected.

Liquid ejection head

Disclosed herein is a colorless or pale-colored liquid composition comprising a cationic substance, wherein the liquid composition contains in combination a cationic substance and a nonionic polymeric substance.

Provided is a color filter which comprises a substrate and a resin layer on the substrate, the resin layer containing a plurality of colored portions of different colors and non-colored portions.

Color filter, method for manufacturing it, and liquid crystal panel

There are disclosed an apparatus and method for manufacturing a color filter for a liquid crystal display by forming a plurality of color elements on a glass substrate. Three ink-jet heads respectively having R, G, and B color ink are moved relative to the glass substrate, and form color elements by ejecting corresponding color ink onto positions, corresponding to the color elements, on the substrate. Each color element has a shape elongated in the arrangement direction of nozzles of the ink-jet heads, and is made up of a plurality of ink ejections from different nozzles of the ink-jet head.

When a black image region is printed, the overall pixels in the region is printed by a black ink. Then, a cation type cyan ink which makes a coloring agent in the ink insoluble is printed on the pixels of a predetermined pattern. By this, the dye of the black ink is maintained near the surface of the printing medium to increase density of the black image. At the same time, for preventing variation of tone of the black image, the pixels of the predetermined pattern are printed by a yellow ink.

Method and apparatus for ink-jet printing

A metallic orifice plate having no aperture and a substrate is molded in a single unit with a polymer material. An aperture is formed by photolithography on a designated position of the molded orifice plate with reference to an alignment mark present on the substrate. Using the metallic orifice plate on which the aperture is formed as a mask and exposing a laser light on a polymer material reachable through the aperture, an orifice to be used for ejecting ink and to be connected to an ink fluid route formed inside the polymer material is formed. An ink supply port penetrating through the substrate is connected to the ink fluid route. In molding the orifice plate and the substrate in a single unit, a transfer forming method is used. In exposing a laser light, an excimer laser oscillator is used. The ink jet recording head fabricated by the above described method is mounted in an ink tank to be installed into a printer.

Method of fabricating an ink jet recording head
