    摘要： Each sheet is picked from a stack of sheets with the time of it being picked being determined in accordance with the time of the prior pick. The sum of the times to advance a sheet its length and a desired gap between adjacent sheets is equal to a pick delay time and an expected feed time. If the measured feed time of the prior sheet exceeds a maximum feed time, the pick delay is the same as for the prior sheet. If the measured feed time of the prior sheet does not exceed the maximum feed time and the measured feed time of the prior sheet was less than the expected feed time, the pick delay is greater than the pick delay of the prior sheet. If the measured feed time of the prior sheet does not exceed the maximum feed time and the measured feed time of the prior sheet was not less than the expected feed time, the pick delay is less than the pick delay for the prior sheet.

    摘要： A staging assembly for use in an image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes a paper feed assembly having a plurality of rollers for feeding a transfer sheet to an electrophotographic assembly. A removable idler gear is interposed between the paper feed assembly and the electrophotographic assembly, and drives the paper feed assembly when installed. A staging assembly drives the paper feed assembly when the idler gear is removed and includes a rotatable drive element for connection to and rotation of one of the rollers; a drive unit for rotatably driving the rotatable drive element; and an electrical connector for electrically connecting the staging assembly to the electrophotographic assembly. The staging assembly is a modular assembly which is connectable to and removable from the paper feed assembly.

    摘要： A cartridge lockout system and method for an image forming apparatus, which includes a cartridge and a wheel rotatably mounted on the cartridge. The wheel has a plurality of digital indicators, each digital indicator being in a first condition or a second condition. A sensor is secured to the image forming apparatus adjacent the digital indicators for sensing the digital indicators and the first and second conditions of the digital indicators and producing a sensor signal during rotation of the wheel. Further included is an engine that has a machine class code and a cartridge support registry data table stored therein. The engine is in electrical communication with the sensor, receives the sensor signal, generates a cartridge class code based on the sensor signal, compares the cartridge class code to the machine class code, and disables operation of the engine if the cartridge class code does not match the machine class code in the cartridge support registry data table.

    摘要： One aspect of the invention is directed to a toner cartridge including a sump for carrying a supply of toner. An agitator is rotatably mounted in the sump, and the agitator has a first end and a second end. An encoded wheel is coupled to the first end of the agitator. The encoded wheel is structured and adapted to include a first preselected cartridge characteristic indicia having a first extent, a stop indicia having a second extent larger than the first extent and a start indicia having a third extent larger than the second extent. Each indicia may be in the form of a slot. Preferably, the start indicia is positioned between about a 5:00 o'clock position and a 6:00 o'clock position. The stop indicia is positioned at about a 9:00 o'clock position. At least one preselected cartridge characteristic indicia is positioned between the start indicia and the stop indicia. At least one measurement indicia is located between about 200 degrees and about 230 degrees in a clockwise direction from the 6:00 o'clock position.

    摘要： Method is disclosed for determining characteristics of a toner cartridge. One aspect is directed to determining the characteristics associated with a quantity of toner in the cartridge, and thus, the method includes the steps directed to determining a home position of an encoded device relative to a code reader, determining a delay in rotational movement of the encoded device with respect to a rotational movement of a drive mechanism as an agitator moves through the toner, and translating the delay into an amount of toner remaining in the cartridge. Another aspect is directed to determining preselected cartridge characteristics from the encoded device, and thus, the method includes steps directed to rotating the encoded device, reading a coding of the encoded device, and decoding the coding to determine the preselected cartridge characteristic information represented by the coding. The method steps directed to these aspects of the method may be performed separately or in aggregate.

    摘要： An improved printer is provided which includes a print engine control program that minimizes the power consumption of the paper-handling devices to allow for a smaller DC power supply. Some of the paper-handling devices are input paper trays, output paper stackers, and a duplexer, which all preferably contain a microcontroller and an individual electric motor drive. The base printer also contains a microcontroller in the print engine that controls the printer's mechanisms and various subassemblies that are used in the laser electrophotographic printing process. To maintain control of the entire paper path, the print engine sends commands to the paper-handling devices, and these devices send responses to these commands. Most of the printer's paper-handling devices receive their electrical power entirely from the base printer, which is supplied as a DC voltage. The print engine avoids the concurrent running of subsystems in cases where the functionality of the printer is not compromised. These subsystems are instead run sequentially, so their power demands do not overlap, thereby providing a reduced overall power consumption requirement that is being supplied by the printer's DC power supply. Another aspect of the present invention allows the printer to command either all or only certain individual paper-handling devices to place themselves into a "power saver" mode.
