    Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a holder, a pre-treatment head, a smoother, and a print head. The holder reciprocally moves while holding a recording medium. The pre-treatment head discharges a pre-treatment liquid onto a surface of the recording medium held by the holder. The smoother smooths the pre-treatment liquid, which is discharged onto the surface of the recording medium, along the surface of the recording medium by a movement of the holder. The print head discharges a printing liquid onto the surface of the recording medium with the pre-treatment liquid smoothed.

    Abstract: A printing system comprises an intermediate transfer member, an image-forming station comprising a print bar disposed over a surface of the ITM, a conveyer for driving rotation of the ITM, a detection system configured to detect foreign matter transported at a detection location upstream of the image-forming station, and a response system operatively coupled to the detection system to respond to the detection of foreign matter by performing at least one collision-prevention action to prevent a potential collision between foreign matter and the print bar.

    Abstract: A method and print system for stopping the print system are disclosed. The print system includes a control unit for controlling the printing of sheets, a print engine for printing recording material on the sheets, an input tray for holding sheets to be printed upon, and a finishing unit. The method includes scheduling printing and finishing of a plurality of sheets, including sending a sheet request from the control unit to the finishing unit, and upon receiving the sheet request, the finishing unit provides an earliest expected arrival time of a sheet at the finishing unit to the control unit. When this time is too huge, operator intervention is required and the finishing unit reports an error to the control unit, after a previous sheet has been deposited in the finishing unit, and the control units stops the print engine before the sheet leaves the input tray.

    Abstract: A printing apparatus which shuts off the power supply to the apparatus, if a state in which the power supply to the apparatus is meaningless continues for a predetermined period, to prevent wasteful electricity consumption. When a LBP has an abnormality, an error processor detects the abnormality, executes a predetermined processing such as notification of the occurrence of error, and outputs error information to a power controller. The power controller determines whether or not the abnormal state has continued for a predetermined period. If the power controller determines the continuation of the abnormality for the predetermined period, it outputs a power-off instruction to a power. The power shuts off the power supply to the respective elements of the LBP.

    Abstract translation: 如果对设备的电力供应无意义的状态在预定时间段内持续的状态,则可以切断向设备供电的打印设备,以防止浪费的电力消耗。 当LBP异常时,错误处理器检测异常,执行诸如通知错误发生的预定处理,并将错误信息输出到功率控制器。 功率控制器确定异常状态是否持续了预定时间段。 如果功率控制器在预定时间段内确定异常的持续时间,则向电源输出断电指令。 电源关闭LBP各个元件的电源。
