US Classification:

Abstract:

Color electrophotographic printers having latent image positions synchronized with start-of-scan signals. A laser source projects a laser beam onto a multifaceted rotating polygon that sweeps that beam in a scan line across a moving photoreceptor. A start-of-scan detector produces start-of-scan signals when the laser beam is in position to write a scan line. A belt sensor produces belt signals when indicia on the photoreceptor passes a reference position. A controller receives the belt signals and the start-of-scan and then adjusts the photoreceptors rotational velocity such that the belt signals are an integral multiple of the start-of-scan signals. To reduce the impact of drive roller eccentricities on belt signal to start-of-scan signal timing, the perimeters of photoreceptor roller elements are sub-multiples of the photoreceptor length.

US Classification:

347 8, 347 16, 347 19

Abstract:

An inkjet printing system includes a sensor positioned proximate a media transport path in an inkjet printing system, the sensor being configured to detect a media height exceeding a predetermined height with reference to the media transport path, and a controller associated with the inkjet printing system, the controller being configured to modify operation of the inkjet printing system in response to the sensor detecting a media height exceeding the predetermined height.

Inventors:

Lloyd Williams - New York NY

International Classification:

G09F 718

US Classification:

40607

Abstract:

A display frame, which carries a sheet of mylar metalized to provide a mirror and an advertising display placard, is provided with a number of straps disposed for coaction with a turnbuckle type mounting device to securely position the display upon pillars of I-beam configuration such as those found in subway and train stations. The turnbuckle assembly of the mounting device is such as to exert compressive forces against opposed inner faces of the I-beam flanges and, in one embodiment, coacts with straps secured to the rear wall of the display to mount the display across the edges of said I-beam flanges so as to hide the mounting means in the space behind the display and between the flanges and web of the I-beam pillar. The display frame is formed with one or more advertising placard mounting sections formed with grooves to facilitate positioning and easy removal of the placards which carry an advertising message. Such display sections in some embodiments are at an angle with respect to the mirror.
