    摘要: A method for controlling binary thermal printers increases the effective output resolution of the thermal printer above the native resolution of a print head having a plurality of individual resistive heating elements arranged in a print line. An increase in the effective resolution of a binary output image is achieved by using an over-drive energy to control a relative position of a binary edge of a pixel image at a resolution that is less than the native resolution of the thermal printer. In a preferred embodiment, an under-drive energy may also be used with an adjacent over-drive energy to further control the relative position of the binary image of the pixel image. The over-drive energy is higher than a native pixel drive energy, but lower than a maximum drive energy. The native pixel drive energy produces a binary pixel image having a native area corresponding to the native resolution of the thermal printer. The binary pixel image on the print media corresponding to the heating elements to which the over-drive energy is applied are increased in area beyond the native area of the thermal printer, thereby enabling the thermal printer to realize an increase in an effective resolution of the binary image.

    摘要: A high resolution thermal printer capable of printing both directly on a thermally responsive media and indirectly through a thermally responsive donor media is disclosed. The printer has a printing media guide mounted as an intermediate clamshell structure to accurately position the printing media immediately adjacent the print head and platen. The printing media guide includes a nip roller and guide bar independently suspended on a spring biased, pivot plate arrangement. The printing media is centered on the supply spool, and the printer includes a read/write circuit to communicate with a profiler chip centrally mounted in the printing media roll. The printer may also include a read/write circuit to communicate with a donor profiler chip centrally mounted in the donor media roll. A constant pressure brake with a friction belt is used directly against the printing media. A spring arm latch/channel block arrangement is used to secure the printing media supply spool. An optical sensor and return motor on the supply spool are used in accurately positioning the printing media for subsequent color passes during full color printing.

    摘要: A network protocol facilitates high speed transmission of raster data from a server to a client. The protocol defines a first sub-protocol for negotiating a connection and preparing to transmit a print job, and a second sub-protocol for transmitting a large quantity of raster data. The second sub-protocol allows the recipient of the data to dictate the order in which various types of data are transmitted, while allowing for efficient error correction of lost and/or corrupted packets. In one embodiment, a server is configured to transmit data to a client using the protocol of the present invention. In another embodiment, a client is configured to receive data from the server according to the protocol of the present invention. The protocol minimizes handshaking by sending a large number of data packets between acknowledgements.

    摘要: A method calibrating a thermal print head printer having fixed imaging elements so that consistent high resolution output may be achieved includes a means for measuring a common characteristic of each fixed imaging element and storing the values so that print head compensation may occur during the printing process one scan line at a time. Error diffusion, either across the thermal print head, down-web, or both, ensures that appropriate drive level are supplied to each fixed imaging element regardless of inherent differences in the common characteristics of the fixed imaging elements, to achieve consistent tonal image quality. In a preferred embodiment, the fixed imaging elements are thin film electrical resistive elements and the common characteristic is the electrical resistance of the thin film resistor elements.

    摘要: A driver circuit provides a plurality of drive energies having a plurality of thermal distributions associated therewith. These thermal distributions interact with print media to form binary images having active and inactive areas. A driver control circuit is responsive to source image information to apply selected drive energies to selected heating elements. These drive energies produce interacting thermal distributions for selectively positioning boundaries between active and inactive areas.
