A printing apparatus capable of executing printing based on a flat-rate use service includes a first connection unit for first connection between a printing apparatus and a first apparatus and for which a first method is used, and a second connection unit for second connection between the printing apparatus and a second apparatus and for which a second method is used. A detection unit detects that the second connection has been established, and a control unit causes the printing apparatus to operate in a predetermined mode for performing setting for establishing the first connection. Even if it is detected while the printing apparatus is operating in the predetermined mode that the second connection has been established, the control unit causes the printing apparatus to continue operation in the predetermined mode.

Printing apparatus, control method, and storage medium for storing program

A setting information transmission apparatus includes a storage unit configured to store setting information for a previously-made initial setting for an external apparatus, a first reception unit configured to receive information about the external apparatus and initial setting start information from the external apparatus, and a transmission unit configured to transmit, upon receiving the initial setting start information, setting information for an initial setting to the external apparatus depending on the information about the external apparatus with reference to the setting information for the previously-made initial setting for the external apparatus.

Setting information transmission apparatus

The invention provides a vaccine comprising an effective amount of an isolated recombinant influenza virus comprising a mutant M gene segment that is mutated so that upon viral replication the mutant M gene expresses a functional M1 protein and a mutant M2 protein with a deletion of the cytoplasmic tail and either lacking a transmembrane domain or having a mutated transmembrane domain.

Vaccines comprising mutant attenuated influenza viruses

The present invention provides cells which have a high ability to propagate influenza virus, are suitable for use in production of an influenza virus for preparing a vaccine, and are able to be cultured in vitro, and a method for producing an influenza virus using the cells. That is, the present invention provides cells for producing an influenza virus in which expression of one or more genes that encode proteins involved in an effect of suppressing influenza virus production in a cell is suppressed and the gene is at least one selected from the group including ACTG1 gene and the like, and a method for producing an influenza virus that includes infecting the cells for producing an influenza virus with an influenza virus and then culturing.

A communication apparatus includes a control unit that causes the communication apparatus to operate, based on that a predetermined command is received through a second connection in a first exclusive state in which the communication apparatus does not receive connection information through a first connection or a second exclusive state in which the communication apparatus is not connected to an external device corresponding to the connection information that is received through the first connection.

Communication apparatus and control method

A communication apparatus configured not to execute displaying, based on the operation in the connection setting state being started, a screen for receiving an operation for stopping the operation in the connection setting state on a display unit of the communication apparatus.

Communication apparatus

A wireless communication apparatus comprises: a search unit that searches, by using a plurality of frequency bandwidths, for an access point to perform wireless communication; a display unit that displays, based on pieces of predetermined information corresponding to a plurality of access points detected by a search, display items corresponding to the pieces of predetermined information; and a processing unit that performs, when the display items are displayed and a user selects one of the display items, connection processing to an access point specified by the selection of the display item, wherein when a display item corresponding to a first access point and a second access point is selected, the processing unit performs the connection processing to an access point that satisfies a predetermined condition, among the first access point and the second access point.

Communication apparatus, communication method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium

A problem is solved by providing a communication apparatus including a displaying unit that displays, on a display unit, a predetermined screen for executing a second communication setting that allows the communication apparatus to communicate with a terminal apparatus by using a second communication method, which is different from a first communication method, in a case where a cancel instruction is received while the communication apparatus is operating in a predetermined condition.

Communication apparatus, control method, and storage medium for canceling a communication setting

A print control apparatus enables a network setting to be changed during print preparation processing executed at the arrival, thereby enabling the user to bring start time to use the print control apparatus forward.

Print control apparatus for performing wireless communication, control method, and storage medium

A method to prepare recombinant influenza viruses comprising a mutant M2 protein which has a deletion of two or more residues in the cytoplasmic tail and is attenuated in vivo, is provided, as well the resulting virus and vaccines with the virus.
