    摘要: A reproduction apparatus has an endless web with perforations or other indicia triggering image formation and receiving sheet presentation. To correct for error in perforation location the distance between perforations is measured and a delay after sensing one or both perforations is adjusted accordingly. Preferably, the distance between perforations is measured by an encoder temporarily connected to the apparatus when a new web is installed by a serviceperson.

    摘要: Image frame length control apparatus and methods are disclosed which have particular utility in a printing or reproduction apparatus that writes one or more images on a transported photosensitive media such as a photoconducting drum or continuous-loop web. When an electronic writing system or optical exposure system is used to expose a driven media on a line-by-line basis, a variation in media thickness causes the latent image frame to be written with an inaccurate frame length. Consequently, a degraded print is produced.The latent image frame length is corrected during exposure, by adding or omitting one or more lines in the image frame. Alternatively, the exposure of an image is offet by an interval corresponding to one-half of the total length discrepancy between the uncorrected image frame length and the image frame length that would be written if the media surface speed was at a median level. The overall image length error is thereby reduced by half and distributed to the upper and lower extremities of the image frame. In another embodiment, the rotation rate of the media is increased or decreased when a respectively thin or thick portion of the media passes over the driving apparatus.The corrected image fames are written with greater fidelity to the original and, after development and transfer to a receiver, are particularly well-suited for use in forming an accurate multicolor reproduction.

    摘要: Multicolor toner images are formed on a receiving surface by superimposing single color toner images formed electrostatically on an image member, in registration on a receiving surface. The receiving surface is rotated by a transfer member, for example, a transfer drum, repeatedly through transfer relation with the image member. To improve transfer and avoid wear of the image member, the transfer member is driven by the image member during transfer. To improve registration the transfer member is separated from the image member between transfers and reindexed. A stepper motor is used for such reindexing. The invention is particularly usable in transfers using heat, especially to a heat softenable outer surface of a receiving sheet.

    摘要: A color tranparency having high density includes overlying color toner images on opposite sides of a transparent substrate. The color images are formed by first forming two sets of electrostatic images, one set being a mirror image of the other. The electrostatic images are toned by application of different color toners to the images of each set and then each set is transferred in registration to opposite sides of the transparency.

    摘要: The specification discloses apparatus by which multiple reproductions can be produced from an original, all reproductions from the same original being of substantially identical quality. An electrographic machine substantially uniformly charges an electrographic recording member to a predetermined initial voltage and imagewise exposes the charged recording member at a nominal exposure level to produce a latent charge image. The initial voltage level and the exposure level are process control parameters of the machine, which also includes a biased electrode for controlling deposition of toner to the latent charge image. Signals are produced and stored having values characteristic of (1) the level of at least one of the parameters and (2) the bias voltage level which are associated with a desired reproduction quality of an original. A comparison signal is produced by taking the signal values of the sensed parameters associated with latent charge images of successive reproductions of an original and comparing them with the stored signal values for the corresponding latent charge images of the same original. The bias voltage level associated with the latent charge image is varied in response to the comparison signal, thereby producing a developed image having substantially the same upright quality as that produced by the stored signal values.

    摘要: An electrostatographic color image production apparatus forms a series of large color separation electrostatic latent images of a multicolor image on an image member. Each large latent image is made up of an array of smaller latent images with border regions therebetween. Latent images are formed in the border regions to create a border color in one of the dominant colors of the multicolor image.

    摘要: A color printing apparatus forms a series of electrostatic images on an image drum, tones them with different color toners and transfers the toner images to a receiving sheet to form multicolor images. The beginning and end of transfer of each image create mechanical discontinuities in the motion of the drum because of engagement and disengagement of the receiving sheet or its edges in a pressure transfer nip. The image-forming process is designed so that significant image scanning does not occur during the discontinuities.

    摘要: Endless web laser printer having enhanced copy registration. Compensation is made for the position of the laser beam along the scan line when the image scanning is to begin. The extra delay in starting the image scan is translated to an equal and extra delay for feeding the paper to the image transfer station. Up to one full line of misregistration can be corrected. Dividing the scan line into segments decreases the possible number of extra delay time quantities consistent with the perceivable improvement in registration tolerance.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for managing the storage of image data in a framestore of an electronic color printing system so as to minimize the storage requirements of the framestore. In such a system, image data is read out from the framestore in a color-separated sequence (R1-Rn; G1-Gn; B1-Bn) which differs substantially from a color-integrated sequence (R1,G1,B1-Rn,Gn,Bn) in which image data is received by the framestore from an input image scanner. According to the invention, values representing such color-integrated data from the image scanner are stored at address locations in the framestore vacated by the immediately preceding data read-out step. Such data management obviates the need for two separate framestores, each being capable of storing a sufficient number of multiple color-separated images to produce a desired array of multicolor images on a single receiver sheet.
