A specific dye set, comprising Acid Yellow 23, Direct Red 227, and Acid Blue 9, yields true, vivid colors on specially coated paper and transparency, and yields true colors on uncoated or "plain" papers. This dye set, which is intended for 300 dpi thermal ink-jet printers, is a distinct improvement over a prior art dye set.

Briefly described, embodiments of this disclosure include fusible print media, methods of making fusible print media, and systems for preparing a fused ink-jet image. One exemplary embodiment of the fusible print medium, among others, includes a substrate and an ink-receiving layer disposed on the substrate. The ink-receiving layer includes a plurality of hollow polymer beads having substantially the same diameter.

Ink-jet ink compositions are described comprising at least one organo-phosphonic acid or its sodium or potassium salt. The ink-jet ink compositions reduce puddling, scale formation, kogation and corrosion, and as such lead to improved print quality.
摘要:
An apparatus having an image behind a document to be scanned on an optical image scanner, copier, facsimile machine or similar device. The image behind the document would partially bleed-through into the reproduced image, leaving a faint replica of the auxiliary “bleed-through” image in the reproduced image.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for organizing digital images that contain a persons face is disclosed. A database of known faces allows the faces in the images to be identified. The names of the people identified in the image are used in naming the image files and in naming the path to the image files.
摘要:
An inkjet recording medium includes a substrate, a base layer, and a porous ink receiving layer. The base layer is established on at least one surface of the substrate, and the porous ink receiving layer is established on the base layer. The base layer includes calcined clay present in an amount ranging from about 25% to about 75% by dry weight.
摘要:
A method of adjusting the resolution of a scan based on the scan area or the scan window size. The smaller the scan window size, the higher the scan resolution would be. The final scan resolution is a function of an initial resolution, a resolution modifier, a printer factor, and an image factor. The resolution modifier, the printer factor and the image factor are dependent on the scan window size, the system printer, and the scan image type respectively.

摘要:
An inkjet drop ejection system comprises a combination of printhead components and ink, mutually tuned to maximize operating characteristics of the printhead and print quality and dry time of the ink. Use of a short shelf (distance from ink source to ink firing element), on the order of 55 microns, provides a very high speed refill. However, it is a characteristic of high speed refill that it has a tendency for being over-damped. To provide the requisite damping, the ink should have a viscosity greater than about 2 cp. In this way, the ink and architecture work together to provide a tuned system that enables stable operation at high frequencies. One advantage of the combination of a pigment and a dispersant in the ink is the resultant higher viscosity provided. The high speed would be of little value if the ink did not have a fast enough rate of drying. This is accomplished by the addition of alcohols or alcohol(s) and surfactant(s) to the ink. Fast dry times are achieved with a combination of alcohols, such as iso-propyl alcohol with a 4 or 5 carbon alcohol or with iso-propyl alcohol plus surfactant(s). One preferred embodiment of a short shelf (90 to 130 microns), ink viscosity of about 3 cp, and surface tension of about 54 provides a high speed drop generator capable of operating at about 12 KHz. Reducing the shelf length to about 55 microns, in combination with rotating the substrate at an angle to the scan direction, permits maximum drop generator operation as high as about 20 KHz. As a consequence of employing pigment-based inks, high optical densities are realized, along with excellent permanence (no fade and better waterfastness), and good stability. The combination of preferred ink and pen architecture provides good drop generator stability.
