Systems and procedures are described for an imaging device to download media parameters from a remote server computer that is connected to the imaging device across a network. Specifically, the imaging device detects a media ID from print media. Responsive to detecting the media ID, the imaging device downloads a set of media parameters that correspond to the Media ID from the server computer. The imaging device uses these downloaded media parameters to automatically configure itself.

A consumable order assistance system for a computer peripheral device includes a computer peripheral device, a personal computer, a user interface, and a communication link. The computer peripheral device has a consumable requiring periodic replenishment. The personal computer is signal coupled with the peripheral device. The user interface is provided on one of the computer peripheral device and the personal computer, and is operative to notify a user of a state of the consumable. The communication link signal couples the personal computer with a provider of the consumable for the peripheral device. The personal computer is operative to monitor the computer peripheral device to determine the state of the consumable, and to notify a user via the user interface of a need to replenish the consumable. A method for replacing consumables is also provided.

A thrust rod anchor for utilization in conjunction with a tied form of pipe joint restrainer system. The anchor utilizes spacers which are supported by flanges at their outer extremities and are bolted together over a pipe. A pipe engaging support is provided in conjunction with the outwardly disposed portions of the spacers in a manner wherein a rigid structural support is located adjacent to the surface of the pipe which serves to support and carry symmetrically disposed pipe engaging set screws. Thrust rods are connected to the assembly intermediate outwardly disposed connecting bolts and the set screws. The anchor assemblies of the invention have been shown to provide substantially enhanced anchoring resistance to thrust forces.
