    摘要： A method for dynamically synchronizing configuration information between a printer and an attached accessory. In one embodiment, the printer firmware creates a configuration change object that is immediately incremented any time a configuration parameter is changed. The accessory periodically queries the printer to determine if the configuration change object has been incremented, and, if so, the accessory re-reads and stores the new printer configuration along with the new configuration change object. In a second embodiment, the printer sends out a notice to the accessory that the printer configuration has changed immediately after the change is made, rather than accessory periodically asking the printer if the configuration has changed.

    摘要： A method and a system are used to manage fonts in print jobs with more than one context where at least some of the contexts include text strings. Print jobs may be divided into portions, called contexts, so that they are easier for a print manager to manage. These larger contexts are called graphic sets. Each of these graphic sets is sent to the printer driver consecutively. Each text string has a font associated with it. The font data for each text string is read from the operating system and cached into memory at the time each string is received by the printer driver. After all individual text strings elements of a given graphic set have been received by the printer driver, the context is stored and the cached fonts are stored with the context. After all of the contexts of the print job have been received by the printer and stored, each context is restored and rendered. The graphics sets may be restored in any order. The fonts stored with a context are also restored when the context is restored.

    摘要： A multiple-function copier includes a printer, a scanner, a user interface, and a communications mechanism. The printer is configured to receive print jobs from a network environment. The scanner is operatively coupled with the printer and configured to receive copy jobs from a walk-up user. The printer and the scanner are selectively operative in a print mode and a copy mode. The user interface is associated with one of the printer and the scanner and is accessible by a walk-up user. The user interface is operative to detect submission of a copy job to the scanner by a walk-up user. The communications mechanism is signal coupled with the printer and the scanner, and is operative to automatically configure the printer and the scanner for operation in the copy mode in response to a walk-up user interacting with the user interface. A method is also provided.

    摘要： Methods and systems for processing image data in connection with peripheral units such as laser printers are described. In one embodiment, an image pipeline is queried to determine at least one constraint which affects the image data provided to the image pipeline from a source of image data. If appropriate, the constraint(s) is imposed on the image data to provide constrained image data. After the constraint is imposed on the image data, the constrained image data is provided from the source to the image pipeline for processing into a page-arranged output. In another embodiment, image data which is provided by a source is stored in a first buffer. A handle is assigned to the image data. The handle is passed through at least a portion of the image pipeline. After such passing, at least a portion of the image data which was stored in the first buffer is copied directly into at least one strip buffer, with such copying being the first copying of the image data after the storing thereof in the first buffer. Other embodiments are described.

    摘要： A printer that allows a plurality of personalities access to a common rasterizer. The printer is constructed of an operating system, a scaleable font and a personality interface. The scaleable font is logically connected to the operating system as is the personality interface. Additionally, the personality interface is logically connected to the plurality of personalities and the common rasterizer. The personality interface allows the plurality of personalities to communicate with the operating system and the common rasterizer. When the operating system receives a print job, it activates one of the plurality of personalities to become an active personality. Next, the operating system sends the print job through the personality interface to the active personality and gives the active personality exclusive access to the common rasterizer.
