A liquid discharging apparatusincludes a carriageconfigured to reciprocate relative to a medium, and a plurality of discharging unitsattached to the carriageand configured to discharge liquid onto the medium. At a plurality of replacement positions in a reciprocation direction B of the carriage, the carriageallows the plurality of discharging unitsto be replaced. At the plurality of replacement positions for the carriage, a discharging unit to be replaced, among the plurality of discharging units, is accessible from downstream in a discharge direction C of the liquid.

Liquid discharging apparatus and method for replacing discharging unit

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a head that can eject liquid, a carriage that holds the head and can move in an intersecting direction, a support portion that can support a medium from a side opposite the side on which the head is located, a frame portion that is provided upstream of the carriage in the transport direction, the carriage being attached to the frame portion, a cover portion that covers the carriage, a first adjustment part that is attached to the frame portion, and a second adjustment part that is attached to a positioning portion. A difference between a first adjustment distance and a second adjustment distance is smaller than a difference between a first distance and a second distance.

Liquid ejecting apparatus and adjustment part

A liquid ejecting apparatus RIM which ejects liquid onto a medium includes a carriage which includes a control substrate which configures at least a part of a control unit which controls driving of the entire liquid ejecting apparatus, a plurality of ejecting units which eject the liquid, a plurality of driving substrates which are connected to the control substrate, connected to the plurality of ejecting units in one-to-one correspondence, and drives the ejecting unit, an ejecting unit-driving substrate accommodating unit which accommodates the ejecting unit and the driving substrate, and a control substrate accommodating unit which accommodates the control substrate, in which the plurality of driving substrates are connected to the control substrate.

Liquid ejecting apparatus

A liquid ejecting apparatus which includes a carriage including an ejecting unit which ejects liquid onto a medium, and can move in a reciprocating direction, in which the carriage includes catching units which catch mist which occurs along with ejecting of the liquid from the ejecting unit on at least one side of the ejecting unit in the reciprocating direction, and the catching units include a fan which moves the mist from the catching units by generating an air current.

A user I/F unit,transmits an instruction given by a user to an access management unit,and displays data on a monitor,. The access management unit,transfers requirements to a communication control unit,and a data management unit,in response to the instruction from the user, transfers data from a communications host to the data management unit,, and outputs data from a database,to the user I/F unit,. The data management unit,writes data into the database,and reads storage data from the database,in response to the requirement from the access management unit,. Data transmitted from the communications host are sorted out according to communication services and stored in the database,. The communication control unit,translates the requirement from the access management unit,to a menu number representing each communication service available from the communications host or a command and sends the translated requirement to a communication I/F unit,. This structure enables input data to be sorted out and stored without any overlap.

Data-update monitoring in communications network

A user I/F unit 200 transmits an instruction given by a user to an access management unit 100 and displays data on a monitor 76. The access management unit 100 transfers requirements to a communication control unit 300 and a data management unit 400 in response to the instruction from the user, transfers data from a communications host to the data management unit 400, and outputs data from a database 410 to the user I/F unit 200. The data management unit 400 writes data into the database 410 and reads storage data from the database 410 in response to the requirement from the access management unit 100. Data transmitted from the communications host are sorted out according to communication services and stored in the database 410. The communication control unit 300 translates the requirement from the access management unit 100 to a menu number representing each communication service available from the communications host or a command and sends the translated requirement to a communication I/F unit 500. This structure enables input data to be sorted out and stored without any overlap.
