摘要:
An ink jet printer (101) print head having multiple, redundant ink energizing elements arranged into clusters or groups (812), each of which attempts to expel ink onto media in a predetermined sequence. The effects of an ink energizing element failure are mitigated by using redundant elements, each of which fires in response to the same data.

A wide-array inkjet printhead assembly includes a carrier and N printheads and a module manager disposed on the carrier. The module manager receives a serial input data stream and corresponding input clock signal from a printer controller located external from the inkjet printhead assembly. The module manager demultiplexes the serial data stream into N serial output data streams. The module manager provides the N serial output data streams and N corresponding output clock signals based on the input clock signal to the N printheads.

摘要:
An integrated optical disc label scanner system can comprise a substrate configured for spinning an optical disc, wherein the optical disc has a graphic display on a first surface; an emitting device configured for reflecting energy from the graphic display; a detecting device configured to receive energy sourced from the emitting device and reflected from the graphic display while the optical disc is spinning; and a signal processor configured for converting the energy collected by the detecting device into digitized data. Further, a method of scanning a graphic display from an optical disc can comprise the steps of spinning an optical disc having a graphic display on a first surface; radiating the first surface with emitted energy resulting in graphic display reflected energy; collecting the graphic display reflected energy while the optical disc is spinning; and converting the graphic display reflected energy into digitized data.
