摘要:
The invention generates a page description language compliant data stream, that has been pre-designed and pre-processed to create unique and predictable page element ordering, overlay layout, and for splitting large page elements into multiple independent elements. In this way, multiple processors can be used to render the document without merging the data stream.

A light controlled laser imaging method includes exposing a surface layer of an imaging member substrate to a first expose source to render the surface layer uniformly hydrophilic, wherein the surface layer comprises a compound having reversible light controlled wettability whereby the surface layer is reversibly hydrophilic and hydrophobic; exposing the surface layer to a second expose source in an image-wise fashion to render image areas of the surface layer hydrophobic; exposing the surface layer to a polar liquid wherein the polar liquid attracts to non-image hydrophilic areas; exposing the surface layer to a hydrophobic liquid colorant wherein the hydrophobic liquid colorant attracts to hydrophobic image areas; contacting the surface layer with an image receiving substrate to transfer the image thereto; fixing the image; and optionally, treating the surface layer to remove residual hydrophobic liquid colorant.

A method for use with an imaging system server of the type having a first processing arrangement coupled with a second processing arrangement is provided. The method includes the steps of: transmitting a first job written in a first printer page description language to the second processing arrangement; setting a flag in the second processing arrangement to a first status in response to transmitting the first job thereto; translating the first printer page description language into a first interpreted output with a first memory map; transmitting the second job to the first processing arrangement; setting the flag in the second processing arrangement to a second status in response to transmitting the second job to the first processing arrangement; checking the status of the flag in the second processing arrangement; and swapping portions of the first memory map and portions of a second memory map disposed in a storage section with the first processing arrangement in response to a change in the status of the flag, so that the portions of the first memory are disposed in the storage section and portions of the second memory map are disposed in the second processing arrangement for use in translating the second printer page description language into a second interpreted output.

A machine for planing lengths of timber comprises mutually perpendicular spindles for cutter blocks (7,8). The spindle carrying the cutter block (8) extends below a machine bed (1). The spindle carrying the cutter block (7) extends across the bed (1). A conveyor (5) is provided for feeding a workpiece past the cutter blocks (7,8) at a lower level than the bed. In a modification the spindle carrying the cutter block (7) drives a cutter block (9) which is offset from the spindle itself.
摘要:
An apparatus in which fixed and variable indicia are printed on a receiving member. One portion of a xeroprinting master has an imagewise pattern corresponding to the fixed indicia formed thereon. The xeroprinting master is uniformly charged and, the portion thereof having the imagewise pattern formed thereon, uniformly exposed to light energy. This records a fixed electrostatic latent image corresponding to the fixed indicia thereon. Another portion of the charged xeroprinting master is selectively exposed to light energy to record a variable electrostatic latent image corresponding to the variable indica thereon. The fixed and variable electrostatic latent images are developed, and the developed image is transferred to the receiving member to print the fixed and variable indicia thereon.
摘要:
A lithographic printing method including exposing an imaging surface layer of a printing plate to a first expose source to render the surface layer uniformly hydrophilic; the surface layer comprising a compound having reversible light controlled wettability whereby the surface layer is reversibly hydrophilic and hydrophobic. The surface layer is disposed over a variable image portion of the printing plate imaging surface or disposed over substantially all of the printing plate imaging surface. The surface is exposed to a second expose source to render image areas of the surface layer hydrophobic. Polar liquid attracts to non-image hydrophilic areas. Hydrophobic liquid colorant attracts to hydrophobic image areas. The surface layer is contacted an offset receiving member and the image is transferred to an image receiving substrate.

A head lamp piece, actuating piece, or similar piece with functional symbols adapted for illumination with transmitted light and a method of manufacturing same is provided. A support element (1) is formed in such a manner that there is provided on the surface (5) thereof within at least one predetermined area, a first raised structure (7) corresponding to the shape of at least one first function symbol (9, 11). One or more temperature stable color layers (13, 15) are applied on the support element (1) in the first predetermined area. The surface (5) of the support element (1) is covered by a non-transparent material (17) leaving the raised structures (7) and color layers (13, 15) uncovered. The top surface (7a) of the color layer extends essentially parallel to the surface (5) of the support element (1) and remains free of non-transparent material (17). The method further includes producing pieces having different color function symbols, wherein different color layers are applied next to each other or on top of each other onto a support element. Thereafter, the stacked color layers are covered by a non-transparent color layer whereupon one or more of the color layers or non-transparent color layer is selectively removed exposing color layers in areas where the function symbols are to be produced.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for the control of darkness/lightness in a digital image rendered by a printing system. The technique preferably employs templates to selectively apply different amounts of darkening (lightening) to borders of structures detected within the image dependent upon the need for darkening (lightening).

The present invention is a method and apparatus for the fast rotation of binary images represented as a run length encoded data stream. The system employs a cache memory for efficiently representing parsed RLE data in a rotated orientation, where only the white-black transition points are recorded. Subsequently, the cache memory is further processed using a logic operation to fill in the runs between the recorded transition points during concurrent transfer of the image data to a band of page buffer memory. The process is repeated for a plurality of bands to complete the rotation/decoding process for an entire bitmap image.
