摘要： The invention described in the specification relates to an apparatus for supplying electrical information to a printer controller in order to identify the one or more cartridges installed in a printer. The apparatus comprises a carriage which is laterally translatable relative to the movement of print media through the printer, carriage translation means, and a replaceable cartridge attached to the carriage. The apparatus further comprises an indicia device which is attached to the replaceable cartridge and which has optically readable indicia thereon containing encoded information which contains information identifying the type of cartridge installed in the printer. The apparatus also includes an optical code reader which reads and transmits the encoded information to a printer controller as the cartridge moves in a lateral direction relative to the code reader. The invention thus uses the linear motion of the carriage in combination with the optically readable indicia device on the cartridge to identify the type of cartridge, or to otherwise control the printer depending on the specific information provided by the indicia device.
摘要翻译：本说明书中描述的本发明涉及一种用于向打印机控制器提供电信息以便识别安装在打印机中的一个或多个盒的装置。该装置包括相对于打印介质通过打印机移动的横向平移的托架，托架平移装置和附接到滑架的可更换的盒。该装置还包括标记装置，其附接到可替换的盒，并且其上具有光学可读标记，其上包含编码信息，其包含识别安装在打印机中的盒的类型的信息。该装置还包括一个光学代码读取器，当读取器相对于代码阅读器沿横向方向移动时，该读取器将编码的信息读取并发送到打印机控制器。因此，本发明使用滑架与墨盒上的光学可读标记装置的线性运动来识别墨盒的类型，或者根据由标记装置提供的特定信息来另外控制打印机。

摘要： A system and method for allowing a user to program characteristics of at least one light emitting diode (LED) in order to convey information about the operational status of an appliance, such as a printer. The user of the printer selects one of a plurality of display mode options for the LED for a particular operational status condition of the printer. For each display mode option, there is a range of parameters that can be programmed by the user. Display mode setting information for the particular operational status condition (and chosen parameters) is stored based on a selected display mode option. The display mode option may be tested for a particular set of parameters to allow the user to adjust the parameters to his/her liking. Moreover, a combination of display mode options may be programmed for an operational status condition. During printer run-time, the operational status of the printer is monitored, and through firmware and software, the LED is controlled to operate in accordance with the selected display mode option when it is determined that the particular operational status condition of the printer occurs.

摘要： The invention is directed to an ink jet printer including a printhead and a printhead driver. The printhead includes a substrate, a nozzle plate having a plurality of ink emitting orifices, a plurality of jetting heaters on the substrate and respectively associated with the plurality of ink emitting orifices, and at least one substrate heater associated with the substrate. Each of the jetting heaters and the substrate heaters include first and second terminals. The printhead driver has a plurality of energizable outputs including at least one power line output and at least two enable line outputs. One power line output is electrically connected to a first terminal of each of a jetting heater and a substrate heater. Two of the enable line outputs are coupled to a second terminal of the jetting heater and a second terminal of the substrate heater. During energizing of the one power line output, the jetting heater and the substrate heater may be selectively actuated by selectively energizing the two enable line outputs.

摘要： A printer having a disposable print head which contains a consumable ink supply includes the capability of determining the level of ink in the print head without directly measuring the ink supply. The print head includes a number of resistors which can be driven to an open circuit condition by the printer. The printer includes a counter and memory for tracking the usage of the print head and a driver for selectively driving the print head resistors to an open circuit condition based upon such usage. The printer is also capable of detecting the condition of the resistors on the print head and producing a resultant visual display.

摘要： A resolution quality redefinition control system for a multi function scanner/printer controls a plurality of functions executable such as scanning, printing, copying and faxing. Multiple resolution qualities may be selected by a user for any of the functions through a user input in communication with the controller. A designated quality resolution may not be appropriate for a designated function, however. Some of the functions have an optimal resolution and/or a significant range of resolutions. When the designated quality resolution is not appropriate for a designated function, the controller re-defines the designated quality resolution as an execute resolution for each execution of one of the functions. The execute resolution may be a higher one of the multiple designatable resolutions when the designated resolution is below the optimal resolution but within said significant range, may be a lower of the multiple designatable resolutions when the designated resolution is above the optimal resolution but within said significant range, may be a maximum resolution, may be a minimum resolution or may be a single optimal resolution.

摘要： A RFID linking device-based switchable sensor can be used to detect an unseated condition of one component with another component. The switchable sensor includes a RFID linking device, such as a RFID tag, with an electrical circuitry mountable on the one component and a switchable device incorporated with two portions of the electrical circuitry physically and electrically separated from one another such that the switchable device is exposed and normally in a first condition disabling the RFID linking device to a communicatively unavailable state. The switchable device is accessible from externally of the switchable sensor and thus switchable to a second condition, due to contact with an actuator element on the other component, enabling the RFID linking device to a communicatively available state in response to the one component being placed in the seated condition with the other component.

摘要： The invention includes a method and system for improving the output quality of an image forming device. The method includes comparing an amount of speckle present in the images with a predefined amount of speckle. Thereafter, it is evaluated whether an adjustment of an angle of inclination of an image capture assembly in the image forming device is required for improving the output quality of the images. Accordingly, the height of one or more spacers of a spacer assembly may be altered for inclining the image capture assembly with respect to a transparent surface on which an object to be scanned by the image forming device is placed. The height of the spacer assembly may be adjustable by a user or pre-set to an optimum level for reducing the speckle to a value less than or equal to the predefined amount of speckle.

摘要： Multiple enhancements are provided to a smart copy function of an imaging device to improve performance by making it operate in a time efficient manner. The enhancements include determining pre-positioning of the scan bar based upon the content type setting in the user interface. The smart copy function is also enhanced by determining when to implement and implementing a second pre-scan at a higher resolution when misidentification occurs. Another enhancement uses original size and edge to edge properties to determine content of the original document, which then allows optimal selection of the final copy scan and print parameters.
