摘要： The exemplary embodiments are directed to a control system and method of predicting how a machine will respond to occasional or periodic maintenance or service, and adjusting the machine accordingly to account for the change in machine behavior due to the maintenance or service action. More specifically, in a machine under closed-loop control subject to occasional maintenance or service, the maintenance or service results in transient in machine performance. To mitigate transients in machine performance due to maintenance or service, a prediction of the maintenance or service effect is fed forward the existing control system just prior to the occurrence of maintenance or service in order to compensate for the maintenance or service effect. This prediction is continually updated and refined using subsequent measurements of the effect of maintenance or service on machine performance.

摘要： A method for identifying transfer efficiency in a xerographic print engine utilizes customer images, thereby avoiding the use of specialized images and the corresponding loss of productivity and paper waste. The method includes electronically sensing a two-dimensional residual mass structure on a substantial portion of a substrate surface within the xerographic print engine after image transfer, analyzing the two-dimensional structure using signal and/or image processing techniques, and determining the transfer efficiency, based on the sensed two-dimensional residual mass structure by applying the following functional equation form or variant: sensor_response=[(1−Mxfer—efficiency)*MpixelCnt]+[(1−Yxfer—efficiency)*YpixelCnt]+[(1−Cxfer—efficiency)*CpixelCnt]+[(1−Kxfer—efficiency)*KpixelCnt].

摘要： A method and apparatus for implementing statistical process control (SPC) in a printing environment to address errant reads of control sensors is provided. The system uses SPC, in systems having feedback control based on control sensor data, to identify errant reads and ensure that such errant reads are not used in the applicable feedback loop. Unnecessary reaction to the errant reads is thus avoided.
