Abstract: An inkjet printer forms low and high area coverage test patterns using inkjets in a printhead. The printer identifies process direction offsets for the inkjets in both test patterns using scanned image data of the printed test patterns. The printer identifies a level of cross-talk in the printhead with reference to a standard deviation difference between the process direction offsets identified in the low area coverage and high area coverage test patterns. The printer generates a recommendation for an operational configuration of the printhead based on the identified level of cross-talk.

Abstract: An inkjet printer is configured to apply a coating material to an imaging surface before an ink image is formed on the surface. At least one optical sensor generates image data of the coating on the imaging surface and identifies a thickness of the coating material. Components of the coating material applicator can be adjusted to keep the thickness of the coating material within a predetermined range.

Abstract: A method for operating an inkjet printer to identify inoperable inkjets includes ejecting ink drops of a first color onto an image receiving surface to impose a control pattern on a document zone in addition to an ink image generated in the document zone. A density of the control pattern in the document zone changes at a rate that is at or less than a predetermined threshold. The method includes generating scanned image data of a portion of the control pattern on the image receiving surface and identifying a performance parameter corresponding to inkjets and printheads in the printer.

Abstract: A system and method for optimizing video-based tracking of an object of interest are provided. A video of a regularized motion environment that comprise multiple video frames is acquired and an initial instance of an object of interest in one of the frames is then detected. An expected size and orientation of the object of interest as a function of the location of the object is then determined. The location of the object of interest is then determined in a next subsequent frame using the expected size and orientation of the object of interest.

Abstract: A method for operating an inkjet printer includes forming a printed mark with a plurality of inkjets in a printhead, generating scanned image data of the printed mark, and modifying an image data correction parameter and firing signal waveform parameter for one of the inkjets to correct a process direction registration error between the locations of ink drops from the one inkjet and the location of the printed mark. The image data correction parameter modifies the location of ink drops from the one inkjet by an integer number of pixels and the firing signal waveform parameter modifies the location of ink drops from the one inkjet by a fractional pixel to enable registration of the inkjet.

Abstract: A method for process direction registration in an inkjet printer includes ejecting ink drops from a first inkjet at less than a maximum operating rate onto an image receiving surface moving in a process direction. The method includes generating image data samples of the image receiving surface including the ink drops. The method further includes identifying a center of the ink drops in the process direction with reference to the image data samples and storing a time offset value in a memory to correct an identified process direction offset between the identified center of the ink drops and another identified center of ink drops that are ejected by another inkjet.

Abstract: A method for printing on a continuous print medium having a plurality of pages includes identifying a location of a feature in image data that are generated from a portion of a first page in the print medium. The method includes modifying a time of operation of a marking unit to form an image on each page in the plurality of pages at a predetermined distance from the edge of each page with reference to the location of the identified feature in the image data. In one configuration, the method enables precise placement of printed images over preprinted forms.

Abstract: A three-dimensional object printer is configured to generate a printed predetermined test pattern on a substrate in the printer with a plurality of ejectors in a printhead. An image sensor generates image data of the printed test pattern and a controller identifies a z-axis distance between the printhead and the substrate using a dispersion identified between cross-process direction distances separating printed marks in the test pattern.
