摘要:
A method and apparatus for embedding information in an image during relative movement between a print medium and an ink jet print head is provided. A plurality of first lines are printed and a plurality of second lines are printed. Each of the first lines includes a plurality of first dots and a plurality of second dots offset from the first dots by a first amount, and each of the second lines includes a plurality of third dots and a plurality of fourth dots offset from the third dots by a second amount different than the first amount. The information is encoded in the image using an encoding scheme in which the first lines represent a first value in the encoding scheme and the second lines represent a second value in the encoding scheme.
摘要:
A printer luminescent ink sensor for a printing device including a radiant energy source; and a photodetector located downstream from a print head of the printing device. The photodetector is adapted to detect luminescent energy from an indicium printed by the print head, upon exposure to radiant energy from the radiant energy source, substantially immediately after the indicium is printed.
摘要:
A water-based ink for use in an ink jet printer for printing machine-readable indicia on a substrate is disclosed. The ink jet ink comprises fluorescent nanoparticles having a diameter between about 30 nm and about 100 nm; and an aqueous liquid vehicle. The aqueous liquid vehicle comprises water and a water soluble vehicle in sufficient amounts to achieve an ink viscosity and surface tension effective for application of the ink jet ink to the substrate in a predetermined pattern by ink jet printing.
