摘要: A print engine/controller (10) configured to be coupled with others to drive an ink drop printhead (33). It has an interface (27) at which to receive compressed page data. Image decoders (28, 88) decode compressed image planes image decoders to perform an expansion, in pipeline fashion, for the received compressed page data. A half-toner/compositer (29) composites respective strips of the decoded image planes and sends output to a printhead interface (32). A printhead interface (32) interfaces with the printhead. A synchronization signal generator (89, 90) may output a synchronization signal that is used to synchronize print engine/controllers. One printhead interface (32) preferably acts as master generating the synchronization signal to synchronize all the print engine/controllers to drive the printhead at any one or more of higher speed, higher input resolution, higher outlet resolution or wider format. The printhead interface comprises two LineSyncGen units, a first LineSyncGen unit providing a synchronization signal for multiple print engine/controller chips and a second LineSyncGen unit adapted to pulse a paper drive stepping motor.

摘要: A method of printing and the related printer architecture for receiving compressed page data that includes both contone data and foreground bi-level data. Both the contone data and the foreground bi-level data are decompressed. The contone data is halftoned to bi-level color data. The foreground bi-level data is composited over the bi-level color data to create composited bi-level color image data that is then printed. The related printer architecture includes an integrated circuit that includes a processor bus and purpose-specific functional units each connected to the processor bus. The functional units include a JPEG decoder, a bi-level decoder, a halftoner, and a program ROM. A general-purpose processor is connected to the processor bus for controlling the functional units. The processor runs software that coordinates the functional units to receive, expand and print pages.

摘要: This invention is a validation method for determining whether an untrusted chip is valid, or not. In another aspect it concerns a validation system for the method. The method may be used to determine the physical presence of a valid chip. A trusted chip generates a random number and a digital signature for it, encrypts them with a first key and then calls a prove function in the untrusted chip. The prove function decrypts the random number and signature, and calculates another signature from the decrypted random number, for comparison with the decrypted one. If the comparison is successful the random number is encrypted with another key and sent back as a second number. Finally, a test function is called in the trusted chip to generate its own encrypted version of the random number using the second key and then compare it with the received version to validate the untrusted chip. The untrusted chip may be associated with a consumable so that validation of the untrusted chip authenticates the consumable.

摘要: The present invention relates to a method of printing using dots of ink discharged from nozzles to form the image. To ensure quality and efficiency of printing, a feed back mechanism from the printhead is used, to provide real time readings on various parameters of the printhead. These readings are compared to a pulse parameter table, to adjust the parameter of the pulse to ensure quality and efficiency of the printing. The temperature of the printhead is sensed to allow the timing of the firing pulses to be adjusted to take into consideration the viscosity of the ink. The amount of voltage available to the pulse actuator can be sensed so that the pulse width can be adjusted to compensate for a flat battery or high voltage source. The resistivity of the actuator heater can be sensed so as to adjust the pulse widths to maintain a constant energy irrespective of the heater resistivity.

摘要: A camera module for a compact printer system. The camera module includes a CMOS image sensor that captures an RGB image when a take button is actuated. The RGB image is transformed to a suitable format, such as L*a*b*, for transfer directly to a printer module. The camera module incorporates a camera portion pivotally connected to a base portion, where by the camera portion is pivotal between a first position where it is aligned with on a common axis on the base portion and a second position where there is no alignment. The base portion has a connector that connects directly to a corresponding connector on the printer module, providing both a physical connection and a logical connection. The logical connection is a serial bus that communicates power and data. The camera module may include a self-timer. It may also connect to and control a flash module.
