Title:
PICTURE RECORDER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3292309
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To automatically implement proper initial setting to each district or each country by implementing the initial setting based on information of a detection means detecting a power supply voltage.
CONSTITUTION: When power is applied to a laser beam printer, an MPU 36 detects the power supply voltage from digital data from an A/D converter 35 and when the detected value is less than 110V, it is discriminated the district to be a power supply voltage 100V, that is, Japan and the initial setting of paper size is set to be size A4. When the detected voltage is in a range of 110-140V, it is discriminated that the power supply voltage is 120V, that is, the USA, and the initial setting of paper size is set to a letter size. Furthermore, when the voltage is other than the power supply voltages (more than 140V), it is discriminated that the power supply voltage is within a range of 200-220V, that is, Europe, the initial setting of paper size is set to be size A4. In this case, the recorder allows an external device to select the initial setting corresponding to the power supply voltage by transferring each detection information or identification information to the external device.
