A recording apparatus comprises a conveyor, a head including an ejection surface, a UV irradiator positioned downstream of the head in a conveyance direction, a wiper, a first shading member, and first and second controllers. A buffer film for reducing a quantity of an impurity implantation is provided adjacent to an MIS gate structure over a surface of a semiconductor substrate, and an impurity implantation is carried out over the semiconductor substrate, through the buffer film in a first predetermined region in which the buffer film is provided and directly in a second predetermined region of the substrate. The method also includes creating the secondary packet data service instance between the application function to the mobile station by arranging one or more network components as a function of the one or more operational attributes. Such a configuration compensates for temperature variations and reduces system complexity and required component space, thereby providing a compact and efficient design. A cleaning tip includes a generally rectangular element having beveled front and side edges and can be removably retained partially within the cleaning tip holder interior space.
