Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for improving print quality. In one embodiment, a method of optimizing printer output quality is provided which includes identifying media in at least one media tray, querying a media database for a record corresponding to the identified media, extracting data from a record of identified media, adjusting printer operation based upon the extracted data, and printing on the identified media, wherein the printer operation is adjusted on a page-by-page basis within a single print job. Typical parameters which are adjusted during the print job are the transfer voltages and the volume of toner deposition. In another embodiment, media is assigned to groups based upon its color and print parameters are adjusted as different colors of media are used.

Abstract: An anti-condensation baffle unit having two members which correspond to each other, which copied paper is transferred between the two members by at least one idler roller, and at least one muffin fan attached to the baffle unit to cool the area surrounding the baffle unit and the paper that passes through the baffle unit. The baffle unit further includes a plurality of slots, positioned such that the edge of the paper will not be caught by and consequently jam, which allow the air blown from fan to contact the paper and allows ventilation throughout the copying procedure.

Abstract translation: 具有两个彼此对应的构件的防冷凝挡板单元，所述复制纸通过至少一个惰轮在所述两个构件之间传递，并且至少一个松饼风扇附接到所述挡板单元以冷却所述挡板单元周围的区域 和通过挡板单元的纸张。 挡板单元还包括多个狭槽，定位成使得纸张的边缘不会被卡住并因此卡住，这允许风扇吹出的空气接触纸张并且在整个复印过程中允许通风。
