摘要:
A document printed marking including a first information marking (12) including first luminescent taggants having a first luminescence wavelength band; and a second information marking (14) printed at least partially on the first information marking at an overlap location. The second information marking includes second different luminescent taggant having a second different luminescence wavelength band. The second luminescence wavelength band is spaced from the first luminescence wavelength band such that the first information marking and the second information marking are substantially luminescently non-intrusive with each other at the overlap location.
摘要:
A method and system for providing services to a mail delivery point are presented. According to the method, a delivery point identifier is acquired from a device located at the delivery point. Then, delivery point data is accessed corresponding to the delivery point identifier, and mail delivery services are provided in response to the delivery point data. The delivery point data are modifiable by a recipient who receives physical mail at the delivery point, and the delivery point data includes recipient preferences.

A method of reconstructing an original image from a printed and scanned image (5) includes determining (10) a plurality of transformation parameters including a rotation α of the scanning grid relative to the printing grid and a plurality of translation parameters which give a position of a node on the printing grid in a coordinate system of the scanning grid, generating (15) a system of non-linear equations which represent the printed and scanned image as a function of: (i) the original image, (ii) a print/scan resolution ratio, and (iii) the transformation parameters, computing coefficients (20) for the system using the resolution ratio, the transformation parameters and the given print model, generating (25) a linear approximation of the system of non-linear equations, solving (30) the linear approximation for an approximation of the original image, and creating (35) a reconstructed original image from the approximation of the original image.
摘要:
A method, system and article for producing an envelope having improved seal integrity. The method includes the steps of: disposing (A) at least one material at the interface of the adhesive seal between the flap and the body portion of the envelope, which material radiates thermal energy when combined with an activating agent. The envelope is then sealed by closing (B1 the flap onto the body portion of the envelope and combining (B2) the material with the activating agent at the sealing interface so as to change the thermal energy radiated therefrom. The seal is then inspected (C) to determine whether the thermal energy radiated from the activated material has changed thereby confirming that a seal has been produced between the flap and body portion of the envelope. The system and article are directed to the various modules of a mailpiece fabrication system employed to produce the mailpiece including an inspection module for confirming that a seal has been formed.
摘要:
A method for printing secure source images of the type that contain specific critical elements and non-secure images on a single printer includes determining the origin of an image (secure source or non-secure source). If the image to be printed is from the non-secure source, a determination (28) is made if the image contains the specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images. Printing of the image from the non-secure source is disabled (30) if the image contains specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images. Printing of the image from a non-secure source is enabled (26) if the image does not contain specific critical elements of the type contained in the secure image. The determination if the non-secure source image contains the specific critical elements of the type contained in secure source images can be made after printing has commenced of the non-secure image.
