An optical system includes a first optical element having a first reflective surface concave toward an object side, a second optical element having a second reflective surface convex toward an image side, and a lens unit disposed between the first optical element and the second optical element. Light from an object travels to an image plane through the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface in this order. A movable unit configured to move during image stabilizing includes at least one of the second optical element and the lens unit.

Optical system and optical apparatus

An electronic device includes a control unit that allows at least a first external power source to be connected thereto and is activated upon receipt of a predetermined power, and a power source connected to the control unit. In an activated state, the control unit performs enumeration processing between the control unit and the first external power source. The power source has charging unit capable of being charged by a charge current supplied from the first external power source, and output unit that outputs the predetermined power from the charging unit to the control unit in response to a connection between the control unit and the first external power source. The charging unit sets the charge current to a current value according to whether the enumeration processing is completed.

Electronic device, printing apparatus, and method for controlling electronic device

A fraud monitoring program causes a computer to perform a fraud monitoring process. The process includes steps of: transmitting information on an operation or an act in the computer to a management device via a first network; and outputting an alert in response to detection of a specific event after an instruction to activate an alert notification function is received from the management device which has detected based on the information that a condition for activating the alert notification function in the computer is met.

Fraud monitoring program, fraud monitoring apparatus, and information processing apparatus

A printing apparatus comprises a plurality of sending units that respectively send signals; a plurality of receiving units provided on a printhead and respectively corresponding to the plurality of sending units, the plurality of receiving units receiving signals via a signal line; and a phase adjustment unit that, based on a phase difference of a plurality of signals respectively received by the plurality of receiving units, controls and outputs a delay of the plurality of signals. Each of the plurality of sending units sends a phase adjustment signal for phase adjustment to be performed by the phase adjustment unit, and a phase adjustment signal sent by a first sending unit includes a signal having a coordinate phase and an opposite phase with respect to a phase adjustment signal sent by a second sending unit.

Printing apparatus adjusting phase differences of received signals

In order to solve a problem that the skew width of a clock when data is transmitted to printheads changes depending on the characteristics of and variations in the respective printheads integrated in a printing apparatus or the operation mode of the printing apparatus, clock skew is adjusted based on a detection result by an error detection circuit integrated in each printhead when the data is transmitted to the printhead. This makes it possible to adjust skew in accordance with the characteristics of the respective printheads or a status change at the time of a printing operation.
