Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming portion; a discharge portion configured to discharge a recording material on which an image is formed by the image forming portion, wherein a delivery conveyance portion having a power source circuit is mountable in a space adjacent to the image forming portion and configured to convey the recording material to a post-processing apparatus; a detection unit configured to detect a temperature; a cooling unit configured to cool the image forming portion; and a control unit configured to control, in a case where the delivery conveyance portion is mounted, rotation of the cooling unit based on the temperature detected by the detection unit in a standby state in which an image forming operation is not performed.
Abstract:
The image forming apparatus controls feeding of a paper to an image forming unit and re-feeding of a paper to the image forming unit by a re-feeding unit that re-feeds the paper held by a double-sided paper feed path. The apparatus changes a print setting of a paper that is the single-sided printing into a forcible double-sided printing that uses the double-sided paper feed path, if a paper whose print setting is double-sided printing and a paper whose print setting is single-sided printing are mixed in a print job, and if there is no paper held in the double-sided paper feed path and the print setting of a paper to be fed is the forcible double-sided printing, the apparatus changes the print setting of the paper to be fed into single-sided printing.
Abstract:
A sheet processing apparatus, including a sheet processing section which performs predetermined processing on sheets of paper to form a booklet; a booklet ejection section which nips the booklet and ejects the booklet outside; an ejected paper stacking section on which the booklet ejected by the booklet ejection section is stacked; a shutter section which is provided between the booklet ejection section and the ejected paper stacking section and is openable and closable; and an opening and closing mechanism which performs an opening and closing operation that is opening the shutter section when the booklet is ejected by the booklet ejection section and closing the shutter section after the booklet is ejected.
Abstract:
There is provided a technique of allowing the user to readily identify a printed material with a stable tint when a plurality of printed materials are output in a printing apparatus. To achieve this, a printing apparatus according to one aspect of the invention executes an adjustment job for printing an image on a plurality of sheets for adjusting the tint of the printed image, and controls to discharge, to a first discharge unit, a predetermined number of sheets among the plurality of sheets on which the image is printed by executing the adjustment job, and to discharge, to a second discharge unit different from the first discharge unit, a remaining sheet subsequent to the predetermined number of sheets.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a printer section configured to print image data to a paper according to a print job, a control panel configured to receive instructions regarding the print job, a first discharging tray configured to receive the printed paper, and an second discharging tray configured to be opened and closed, to receive the printed paper when opened, and guide the printed paper to the first discharging tray when closed. The image forming apparatus further includes a detection section configured to detect whether the second discharging tray is open or closed, and a control section configured to control execution of the print job including controlling the printer section based on the instructions received in the control panel and the detection result of the detection section.
Abstract:
The system is provided for repositioning flat-disposed objects that can be arranged in an overlapping manner at a system inlet. The system includes a first and a second lateral deviation conveyor, each having an inlet located downstream the inlet of the system. The system also includes a diverting device creating a first transport circuit ending on the right side of a common receiving zone, and a second transport circuit ending on the left side of the common receiving zone. The system can invert the orientation of the objects transported in the first transport circuit with reference to the objects transported in the second transport circuit. The system can advantageously be used with objects having a variable thickness and in particular with folding cartons in a flat configuration.

Abstract:
An apparatus for marking indicia on a plate blank where plate blanks are successively presented from a load magazine and moved to a printing station where the indicia is marked thereon and produce a finished plate. The finished plate is then moved into a receiving magazine where it is added to a stack of previously finished plates in a predetermined order corresponding the order in which the finished plates are produced. Also provided herein as a load magazine for presenting and having dispensed therefrom successive single plate blanks at a load magazine opening and a receiving magazine for receiving and stacking finished plates in a predetermined order.
Abstract:
A method is provided for making an elastic composite having dual elasticized regions. The method entails conveying a base web and integrating a first elastic sub-composite with the base web. Then, a second elastic sub-composite is integrated with the base web, whereby the second elastic sub-composite is spaced apart from the first elasticized sub-composite applied thereon. As a result, an elastic composite having dual elasticized regions is produced. This elastic composite includes a base layer having a pair of side edges and a longitudinal centerline spaced inwardly from the side edges, and a first elastic construction supported by the base layer. The first elastic construction includes a first plurality of spaced apart elastic elements and a first top layer extending over the first elastic construction. The elastic composite also includes a second elastic construction supported by the base layer. The second elastic construction includes a second plurality of spaced apart elastic elements and a second top layer extending over the elastic construction. The first and second top layers are spaced apart and the first and second elastic constructions are spaced apart, so as to define a central non-elasticized region between the first and second elastic constructions.
Abstract:
A device and a method for rearranging flexible flat items, in particular printed products, which are delivered continuously in a delivery flow, relative to the delivery direction of the delivery flow. The items are delivered in an incoming delivery flow in a first delivery direction and with substantially identical orientation of the surface normals thereof, and in a predetermined cycle, to a diverting region. There, the delivery in the first delivery direction is ended and the individual items are accelerated in a second delivery direction, which is perpendicular to the first delivery direction and to the orientation of the surface normals in the incoming delivery flow, by an acceleration element which acts on the items in the diverting region in a predetermined cycle. The delivery flow moving in the second delivery direction is subsequently diverted.
