摘要:
A method for generating a page of an electronic document (ED). The method includes: receiving, by a multifunction printer (MFP), a print job having the ED; identifying, by the MFP and after receiving the print job, a location in the ED for placing an item; prompting, by the MFP and after receiving the print job, a user for the item; obtaining, by the MFP and after receiving the print job, the item from an input device operated by the user; and printing, by the MFP and based on the print job, the page by placing the item at the location.

An imaging system comprises a calibration system adapted to perform a calibration scan of a charged luminescent calibration strip disposed in a scan window of an automatic document feeder. The calibration system is adapted to determine whether an opaque object is disposed within a visible area defined by the scan window from the calibration scan.

A memory management system and method includes, in one embodiment, an index location in a hash table that represents metadata, and a file memory address saved at the index location so that the hash table is searchable by a processor by entering the metadata into a hash function to transform the metadata into the index location where the memory address is stored.
摘要:
A scanner comprises a transparent platen mounted on a housing, and an object-imaging device within the housing mounted for longitudinal movement relative to the platen and an object supported thereby. The object-imaging device is rotatable about a transverse axis and comprises an aperture for receiving light reflected from the object. The object-imaging device has a travel distance between a home end position and a back end position, the travel distance comprising a central portion and at least one end portion. The scanner further comprises a mechanism operatively associated with the object-imaging device for rotating the device about the transverse axis thereof in response to movement of the device within the at least one end portion of the travel distance, the device being rotated in a direction so that the light-receiving aperture is rotated away from the central portion of the travel distance.
摘要:
A duplex detection imaging system comprises a scanning device having a photosensitive element disposed therein for receiving light reflected from a front surface of a document. The photosensitive element is also adapted to receive light reflected from a back surface of the document while the front surface of the document is oriented toward the photosensitive element for determining whether an image resides on the back surface of the document.
摘要:
A device for scanning a first image on a document surface and printing a second image on the document surface comprising a mechanism operable to engage a document and drive the document along a feed path, a scanner apparatus operable to generate a scanned image of the first image on the document surface as the document is driven past the scanner apparatus during a first document traversal of the feed path, and a printer apparatus operable to print the second image on the document surface as the document is driven past the printer apparatus during the traversal of the document through the feed path is provided.

A scanner comprises a housing including a top wall defining an opening, the top wall of the housing further comprising an upper surface framing the opening. The upper surface of the top wall further comprises a horizontal planar portion and an object removal guide surface between the horizontal planar portion and the opening. A transparent platen supported by the top wall of the housing comprises an upper surface for supporting an object to be scanned, a lower surface parallel with the upper surface of the platen, and a peripheral edge, the horizontal planar portion of the upper surface of the top wall of the housing lying above the upper surface of the platen. The object removal guide surface is (i) positioned relative to the upper, object-supporting planar surface of the platen to permit unobstructed sliding of an object across the peripheral edge of the platen and (ii) configured to raise at least a portion of the object during removal thereof to permit gripping of the raised portion of the object to facilitate removal thereof from the platen.

A power-sharing controller module comprises a processor, power manager, and at least one connector for detachably electrically connecting an application module to the controller module. The power manager is operable to manage power from a battery to the application module through said connector and to monitor the voltage of the battery. The processor is programmed to send a power reduction command to the application module in response to the monitored battery voltage moving outside of a permissible range.A power sharing method comprises supplying power from the battery in the controller module to the application module detachably connected to the controller module. Power supplied to the application module is reduced in response to an adverse power indication to conserve power for the controller module.
摘要:
A peripheral device for a computer is powered by an internal rechargeable battery. A data line electrically connects the peripheral device to the computer. The data line has conductors that provide for data transmission between the computer and the peripheral device. The data line also has conductors that provide for power transmission from the computer to the peripheral device. The peripheral device uses the power transmission conductors to recharge the battery, thereby eliminating the need for a separate power line to be associated with the peripheral device.

A method for file conversion includes obtaining an original file including content, that includes objects. The method further includes rendering each object of the multiple objects into a page description language (PDL) format to obtain rendered objects, and extracting, from the original file, a tag for an object of the multiple objects. The method further includes generating object composition metadata based on a composition rule corresponding to the tag. The object composition metadata includes a description of a composition of the object in the original file, and is added with the rendered objects to a PDL file.
