摘要： A pivoting platen for use with a printhead of a printing device includes a rigid portion and a compressible portion. The compressible portion contacts a sheet, which is pressed against the compressible portion by the printhead. The platen pivots about a rotational axis as the printhead scans across the sheet, creating uniform pressing forces between the printhead and the platen. These uniform pressing forces ensure uniform density of the image bands printed by the printhead.

摘要： A reproducing apparatus includes a portable imaging platen and a self contained portable copier not having a platen but having a scanning carriage adapted for scanning movement having a reading head for scanning a document to produce a digital image and a printing head for printing a digital image on a copy sheet. The portable platen includes a pair of parallel copier transport rails mounted to a transparent document support member defining a portable copier transport path across the document support member. The rails have a drive surface and the portable copier is mounted on the rails and has a drive mechanism for transporting the portable copier along the drive surface of the rails.

摘要： A duplex printer (or copier) 10 has a copy sheet output path 92 through output rollers 84, curved chute 96, and output rollers 67 into output tray 86. Commonly utilizing a substantial portion thereof is a duplexing path 94 for returning copy sheets to be imaged on their opposite sides to make duplex copies. Rollers 67 alternatively, with reversal, feeds copy sheets into the duplex path 94, aided by rollers 84 at the path separation. The distance between output rollers 84 and the reversible ejecting rollers 67 along the chute 96 is substantial, preferably approximately one half the sheet dimension in the sheet feeding direction of the shortest sheet to be duplexed. The rollers 84 feed copy sheets through the copy sheet output path 92 to the reversible rollers 67 until about one half of the sheet extends out of their nip of these rollers 67. A reversed sheet can then be uninterruptedly reverse fed by, outside, of another sheet moving in the opposite direction in the same arcuate chute 96, for a substantial time period. Thus, a subsequent copy sheet may be fed downstream (upwardly) in the output path 92 simultaneously with, for a substantial time period, the reverse (downward) feeding of the preceding copy sheet into the duplex path 94, to enable slow, uncritical, reversals of rollers 67 even if the sheets are closely spaced in the output path. The duplex path 94 has an even greater path distance between the reversible rollers 67 and the first duplex path feed nip 90, which is separate from the rollers 84.

摘要： An adjustable sheet cassette for use in apparatus feeding sheets such as in an automatic copier or printer comprises a sheet stack support platform capable of supporting stacks of sheets of a plurality of length and width dimensions, sheet width and length dimension representing members on the cassette, each independently movable to a plurality of positions representing a plurality of sheet width and length dimensions which are automatically positioned to represent the sheet width and sheet length dimensions of the stack of sheets on the platform with their position being detected by detectors on the main apparatus and a controller to determine the length and width dimensions of the copy sheets in the cassette thereby enabling the apparatus to automatically select the correct cassette to supply sheets for a printing operation. In a preferred embodiment a binary code is provided which represents the sheet length and width which is decoded by the controller.

摘要： Automatic pre-collation document copying in which the documents are loaded upon, and automatically recirculated by, an elongate windable document holding web. A spaced pair of oppositely wound scrolls of the web wind up documents loaded onto the web, where these documents are retained between the turns of the web on both of the scrolls during the copying operation. The web has a minor intermediate unwound segment extending between the two web scrolls where the documents are intermittently exposed for copying by appropriate optical systems for projecting the document images onto a xerographic drum or belt or other imaging surface. A drive is provided for recirculatingly winding and unwinding the web between one web scroll and the other so as to recirculatingly expose, in sequence, the individual documents on the web as they appear on the unwound intermediate web segment. The documents are thereby exposed in the pre-collated order in which they are loaded onto the web, or/and the reverse to produce correspondingly pre-collated copy sets. A document loading guide is movable into a document loading position adjacent the intermediate segment of the web when one web scroll is repositioned into a document loading position.

摘要： A system, method, and software (1600) are for moving inventory items (1610) to an unloading station (1640) in response to a fulfillment order. An input device (1620) is used to enter identification information about the inventory items. At a loading station (1615), the inventory items are received and loaded into holders (1605). The holders are then moved to storage area (1630). A controller (1625) is configured for creating and storing a first association between the entered identification information and each of the holders in which each of the inventory items is placed. A selector and transporter (1635) are responsive to the fulfillment order and the first association, and are configured to select a holder which holds the inventory items corresponding to the fulfillment order, and configured to transport the holder from the storage area to the unloading station (1640).
