Abstract: The location of a printing device is determined. Environmental conditions in which the printing device operated when printing a print job are determined based on the determined location. An environmental adjustment factor for the printing device is determined based on the determined environmental conditions. A predicted print material usage of the printing device in printing the print job is adjusted based on the determined environmental adjustment factor.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a development cartridge having a developing roller. The developing roller includes a roller body, and a shaft to pass through a central axis of the roller body. A coupling structure is disposed at an end part of the shaft, is movable from a first position to a second position, and includes a first coupling piece and a second coupling piece. Positions of the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece are maintained with respect to one another by a static frictional force between surfaces of the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece to hold the coupling structure in the first position. When a predetermined force overcomes the static frictional force, the first coupling piece and the second coupling piece disengage from one another to allow the coupling structure to move from the first position to the second position.

Abstract: The number of days until a consumable item of a printing device reaches end of life is predicted based on a usage scenario of the printing device. An expected fulfillment time period is subtracted from the predicted number of days to determine a number of days until a fulfillment event occurs. A threshold remaining life of the consumable item is correlated with the number of days until the fulfillment event occurs. That the remaining life of the consumable item has reached the threshold remaining life is detected, and fulfillment of a replacement consumable item to replace the consumable item is responsively initiated.

Abstract: An example apparatus includes a packaging container, and any of a label and an electronic tag detachably connected to the packaging container and including an electrical code set for electrical authentication upon removal of any of the label and the electronic tag from the packaging container and being affixed to a device associated with the packaging container, wherein the electrical authentication is to validate the packaging container and the device as original equipment manufacturer components. Any of the label and the packaging container is altered upon removal of the label from the packaging container.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a development cartridge having a developing roller. A coupler for the image forming apparatus includes a shaft and a coupling structure to rotate the developing roller. The coupling structure is disposed at an end part of the shaft, is movable along an axial direction of the shaft and coupleable with another coupling structure of a print engine of the image forming apparatus. The coupling structure includes a body, a magnet disposed in the body to cause the coupling structure to be attracted to the another coupling structure so that the coupling structure is aligned with the another coupling structure, and a plurality of protrusions which protrude from the body in the axial direction to engage with the another coupling structure, the plurality of protrusions having at least one side with an inclined face.

Abstract: In response to detecting that a remaining supply of print material of a first cartridge has reached a first threshold, a printing device transmits a request. In response to detecting that a second cartridge has replaced the first cartridge, the printing device determines whether the remaining supply had reached a second threshold and whether a token permitting usage of the second cartridge was received responsive to the request. In response to determining that the remaining supply had reached the second threshold and that the token was received, the printing device prints with print material from the second cartridge.
