摘要:
There is provided a computer implemented method of automatically aggregating multiple print jobs. The method includes: storing, in memory, a first print job group complying with a first set of print job aggregation criteria and a second print job group complying with a second set of print job aggregation criteria. A print job is received and at least a part of the received print job is aggregated with the first print job group to form a first aggregated print job set if the received print job complies with the first set of print job aggregation criteria and one of a set of release criteria is met. At least a part of the received print job is aggregated with the second print job group to form a second aggregated print job set if the received print job complies with the second set of print job aggregation criteria and one of a set of release criteria is met. Each one of the first aggregated print job and the second aggregated print job sets is transmitted to one or more document processing resources for processing. In turn, a network client may be apprised of when one of the first, second and third print jobs has been processed with the one or more document processing resources.

A fastener for securing a drywall work piece to a metal substrate. The fastener includes an elongated flat body carrying a securing member and having a driving head disposed at a substantially right angle to the elongated flat body. The driving head defines a bore therein surrounded by a downwardly directed flange having a distal cutting edge which cuts the top paper laminate of the drywall allowing the head to countersink into the drywall without damaging the top paper laminate.
摘要:
A printing system with one or more discrete print media trays, a marking engine and a controller in which prints are produced from a plurality of print jobs by using the controller to control delivery of print media sheets from the one or more discrete print media trays to the marking engine, each of the plurality of print jobs including a plurality of the predefined print media attributes; the one or more discrete print media trays respectively including the print media sheets having a plurality of print media attributes, a method for programming the one or more discrete print media trays, including selecting one print job of the a plurality of print jobs; correlating the plurality of the predefined printed attributes of the selected one of the plurality of print jobs to the plurality of print media attributes of the print media sheets stored in the at two discrete print media trays; and if the plurality of the predefined printed attributes do not correlate with the plurality of print media attributes of the print media stored one of the one or more discrete print media trays, assigning one or more of the plurality of the predefined printed attributes to one of the one or more discrete print media trays.
摘要:
There is provided a method for producing multiple copies of a set of electronic ordered stock from at least two discrete print media trays. The method includes the step of programming an ordered stock profile in which the set of electronic ordered stock is provided with at least two sequentially ordered electronic pages and each electronic page in the set corresponds with a set of print media properties, wherein the set of print media properties for each electronic page differs from the set of print media properties for any one of the other electronic pages in the set of electronic ordered stock. The method further includes the step of mapping the two sequentially ordered electronic pages of the set of electronic ordered stock to the at least two discrete print media trays so that each copy of the set of electronic ordered stock is produced by delivering a print media sheet from a first one of the at least two discrete print media trays to a marking engine at a first time, a print media sheet from a second one of the at least two discrete print media trays to the marking engine at a second time, wherein the second time is subsequent to the first.
摘要:
An electronic image processing apparatus including a controller and a plurality of modules having an arbitrary configuration and being interconnected by input and output ports. The interconnection or port pairings of the modules is determined by the controller by defining ports into input and output sets and defining a given set by logic signals. The logic signals are set to the same level and a logic level change in the logic signals is systematically prompted. The responses from associated ports are identified to map all input and output ports for the image processing apparatus.
摘要:
There is provided a method of estimating cost of printing materials used to print a job on a printing apparatus. The method includes the steps of: storing billing rates reflecting the cost of printing materials to be used in printing the job, selecting a first quantity of printing materials to be used in printing the job, and, prior to printing the job, calculating, as a function of the first selected quantity of printing materials and one of the stored billing rates, a first printing materials cost of the job.

A systemic plant interface replaces the roots of a growing plant by providing a perforate surface which mates to growing xylem tissue of a vascular plant and provides fluid communication and support necessary to sustain the aerial portions of a viable plant.
摘要:
A document specification is examined to determine if it matches the device color characterization of a rendering device such as a printer. If it matches, then the document can be faithfully rendered by the device. Otherwise, the document specification must be transformed before rendering. A match can be detected by discovering a appropriate metadata within the document specification or within the document color characterization. Alternatively, a device signature can be used instead of a metadata.
摘要:
A method and system for inserting dividers in a rendering job. A group of individual files can be compiled into a single document. The individual files can then be arranged in a preferred order. One or more dividers can then be inserted in-between each of the individual files in order to thereafter generate a template that includes a print layout associated therewith and render a complete document, which includes the individual files in the preferred order with the divider(s) automatically inserted therein and including text strings thereof.
摘要:
There is provided a system for scheduling two or more print job suites for shipment to two or more different physical destinations. The system includes a print job processing estimator for estimating a time required to process a first one of the two or more print job suites. The system further includes a print job production manager which uses the time estimated by the print job processing estimator to cause the first one of the two or more print job suites to be processed for shipment before a second one of the print job suites is processed for shipment.
