Abstract: A media processing device includes: a body defining a media supply chamber and carrying a print head; a cover carrying a platen roller, the cover having an open position enabling access to the chamber, and a closed position enclosing the chamber, and cooperating with the body to define a media path extending from the chamber, between the print head and the platen roller, to a media outlet; a target conductor affixed to one of the body and the cover; and an inductive proximity sensor affixed to the other of the body and the cover, disposed to detect the target conductor when the cover is closed.

Abstract: A printer includes: a motor driving a transport member according to an operational parameter, to transport media along a media path from a media supply to a printhead; a first distance sensor disposed on a first side of the media path to measure a first distance between the media and the first distance sensor; and a controller configured to: receive the measured distance; detect curling of the media based on the first measured distance; and responsive to detecting curling of the media, update the operational parameter at the motor.

Abstract: A server for allocating a rechargeable battery among a plurality of roles performed by a group of devices removably connectable with the rechargeable battery, receives for each role from a subgroup of devices, data sets corresponding to respective operational periods. Each data set includes an identifier of the rechargeable battery; a measured capacity; and a measured energy consumption during the operational period. The server: determines and stores, based on the measured capacities, a predicted capacity of the rechargeable battery; determines and stores, for each role, a predicted energy consumption per role based on the measured energy consumptions; obtains an allocation defined by the identifier of the rechargeable battery and an identifier of one of the roles; compares the predicted capacity with the predicted energy consumption corresponding to the obtained role; and when the predicted energy consumption corresponding to the one of the roles exceeds the predicted capacity, generates an alert.

Abstract: A method of charging a battery in an electronic device includes: supplying electrical power to the battery at a charge rate equal; determining if a battery temperature exceeds an adaptive temperature threshold; responsive to the battery temperature exceeding the adaptive temperature threshold: determining a rate of change of the battery temperature; obtaining a charge rate adjustment based on the rate of change; and modifying the charge rate by the charge rate adjustment.
