PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique capable of using a material having proper light-emitting characteristics as the material of a light-emitting layer and enabling micronization of the light-emitting layer and enlargement of a substrate, in a method for pattern-forming the light-emitting layer made of a plurality of light-emitting materials on a device substrate. SOLUTION: On a substrate, a first transfer layer containing a first organic material and a second transfer layer containing a second organic material are pattern-formed by a printing method, at least via a photothermal conversion layer. Meanwhile, the lower electrode or the like are formed on the device substrate, and then the substrate to be transferred is formed. Successively, by irradiating radiation rays on the substrate equipped with the first transfer layer and the second transfer layer, the transfer layer is transferred in a lump on the substrate to be transferred.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printer deciding whether to print or not even for any type of an optical recording medium, an optical disk device, and a printing method. SOLUTION: In step 402, the optical pickup of a recording/reproducing part reads printable/unprintable information recorded in its optical disk to decide whether the optical disk is a printable medium. Even when there is no printable/unprintable information recorded in the optical disk, in step 407, return light from the surface of the optical disk is detected by an optical sensor to estimate whether the optical disk includes an ink reception layer.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cleaning blade in which the flatness and the stiffness of a tip section are assured in the overall length and the mounting accuracy can be easily obtained. SOLUTION: The cleaning blade 34 wipes a liquid discharge surface 27 relatively moving along the liquid delivery surface 27 of a liquid delivery head 4 having the liquid delivery surface 27 where a liquid delivery nozzle 26 for delivering liquid is arranged. The cleaning blade 34 comprises: a support plate 44 on the surface of which an adhesive layer 44a is formed; and a wipe section 43 formed in such a way that the tip of an elastic section 57 consisting of a one-piece-shaped synthetic resin on the adhesive layer 44a is cut by a specified shape and slidingly touched to the liquid delivery surface 27.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To maintain a cleaning characteristic of a blade member, which cleans a head surface, over a long period of time. SOLUTION: The blade member 41 is disposed in a movement path through which it moves from a position opposed to the head surface 26a to an away position. The blade member 41 has a blade cleaning mechanism 60 having a blade cleaning belt 63 which performs cleaning by sliding during movement. A feeding operation in one direction of the blade cleaning belt 63 is performed merely in one-way movement of the blade member 41 by a one-way clutch bearing 68 provided on a drive shaft 66.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To markedly improve a productivity and an assembling property by facilitating insertion and extraction of a circuit board to a connector even in a very limited space such as a head used in a line printer. SOLUTION: A flexible circuit board 3 has a flexibility and the end side of the flexible circuit board 3 is made to be an insertion terminal section 3a with respect to a connector 4a. A reinforcement plate 31 is attached to the insertion terminal section 3a of the flexible circuit board 3 and only a part of the reinforcement plate 31 is stuck to the insertion terminal section 3a with an adhesive layer 32.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a warpage or a distortion from occurring on a module frame, to increase the planar property and the assembly precision of an ink discharging surface, and at the same time, to reduce the manufacturing cost. SOLUTION: A head chip arranging hole 11b of the module frame 11 is formed by an etching process. A nozzle seat 25 is respectively arranged in such a manner that on one side surface of the module frame 11, a nozzle 25a may be positioned in the head chip arranging hole 11b to each head chip arranging hole 11b, and a part of the region of the head chip arranging hole 11b may be covered. At the same time, the nozzle seat 25 is formed into a size which covers a part of the region of the head chip arranging hole 11b. The head chip is respectively arranged in each head chip arranging hole 11b from the other side surface of the module frame 11 in such a manner that a heating resistor and the nozzle 25a may be arranged at confronted positions.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently carry out liquid discharging performance maintenance by reducing discharge defects of a liquid by a liquid discharging head in a liquid discharging performance maintenance method of a liquid discharging apparatus which discharges a liquid from liquid discharging nozzles of the liquid discharging head. SOLUTION: An ink (predetermined liquid) (i) within a printing head 22 which is supplied from an ink tank 4 to be discharged from the ink discharging nozzle 40a is ejected out of an ink send pipe 159, and bubbles mixed in the ink (i) are removed, whereby the discharge defects of the ink are reduced in the liquid discharging performance maintenance method. A state of the ink (i) in the ink send pipe 159 which ejects the ink (i) within the printing head 22 is detected by a bubble sensor 202. The ink (i) in the printing head 22 is sucked on the basis of the state of the ink (i) by an electrically driven pump 201, whereby bubble removal in the ink (i) is carried out. Hence, the ink discharging performance maintenance is carried out efficiently. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To transmit a driving force of each driving part to an operation part of each liquid circulating means by combining a head cartridge into an apparatus body part, and to drive at least one of a plurality of the liquid circulating means with an operation timing shifted to that of the others. SOLUTION: The head cartridge 3 equipped with a plurality of liquid delivery pumps 10 including pressure generating parts for circulating ink between a plurality of ink discharging heads 7 and each ink tank 6 is combined into a printer body part 2 equipped with both a plurality of the driving parts 32 for generating the driving force to operate the pressure generating parts of the plurality of liquid delivery pumps 10, and a control part 33 for controlling the operation of these driving parts 32. Hence the driving force of each driving part 32 can be transmitted to the operation part 28 of each liquid delivery pump 10. Moreover, at least one of the plurality of liquid delivery pumps 10 is driven with the operation timing shifted to that of the others. A load of each liquid delivery pump 10 to be applied to the driving part 32 is reduced, and the driving part 32 is made compact and small-powered. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
