20090128593 | PRINTERS AND PRINTHEAD CLEANING PRIMARILY IN PAGE-WIDE ARRAY PRINTERS - A method of printing on a substrate and a printer are provided. The method uses a printer comprising a print head and a mask having a hole therethrough, the mask being disposed between the print head and the substrate, and comprises aligning the hole with the print head; printing on the substrate through the hole; and misaligning the hole with the print head so that the print head is covered by the mask. The method may allow the servicing of a print head in the array while the printer is printing on the substrate using at least one of the remainder of the print heads in the array. | 05-21-2009 |
20090128594 | DEFECTIVE NOZZLE REPLACEMENT IN A PRINTER - Printing is performed at a full resolution using a first set of nozzles and a second set of nozzles arranged on a printhead. Printing is performed at less than the full resolution using the first set of nozzles less any nozzles in the first set of nozzles that have been determined to be defective. T he second set of nozzles is not used for printing at less than the full resolution except for a subset of nozzles in the second set of nozzles that are used to replace nozzles from the first set of nozzles that have been determined to be defective. | 05-21-2009 |
20090128599 | METHOD AND PRINTER FOR MULTI-PASS PAGE-WIDE ARRAY PRINTING - A method of printing an image on a substrate using a page-wide-array printer and a page wide array printer is provided. The method comprises printing a first portion of the image as relative movement occurs between the substrate and the print heads, and printing a second portion of the image as relative movement occurs between the substrate and the print heads, such that there exists an area of overlap between the first portion of the image and the second portion of the image. The substrate may be moved in a first direction relative to the print heads whilst the first portion of the image is printed, moved in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and moved in the first direction again whilst the second portion of the image is printed. The substrate may be printed whilst the substrate is moved in the second direction. | 05-21-2009 |
20100277525 | METHOD OF PRINTING AND PRINTER - A method of printing on a substrate in a page-wide array printer comprises printing on the substrate as the substrate is moved through a printing zone of the printer in a first direction, and printing on the substrate as the substrate is moved through the printing zone in a second direction different to the first direction. | 11-04-2010 |

20090010498 | Print emulation of test pattern - Print quality feedback is provided about a printer. Printer operation is monitored to determine when printer parts are not operating correctly. Information indicating which printer parts are not operating correctly is stored. A test pattern is modified to produce an emulated test pattern. The emulated test pattern emulates how the test pattern would appear when printed by the printer. The emulated test pattern includes alterations made to the test pattern based on the information indicating which printer parts are not operating correctly. | 01-08-2009 |
20120026241 | PRINTHEAD CLEANER - In one embodiment, a container or housing includes a body, a cavity and an aperture. A first and a second rotatable spindle are positioned within the cavity such that their long axes are substantially parallel, the first spindle to unwind unused wiping material, and the second spindle to wind used wiping material. A plurality of suspension devices connect to the body. A plurality of wipers are each connected to a discreet suspension device, each wiper including a wiping surface protruding through the aperture and each wiper to engage and wipe a discreet printhead during a wiping operation. | 02-02-2012 |

20090034366 | VSP Pattern Recognition in Absolute Time - A procedure to determine VSP-WD (Vertical Seismic Profiling—While Drilling) first breaks in absolute time is described. By combining a seismic surface source and firing complex seismic pattern unique in time (with a highly accurate surface—downhole time reference system), an automatic downhole procedure for first break detection on the downhole data, even under harsh conditions (low signal to noise ratio), is established. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. 37 CFR 1.72( | 02-05-2009 |

20100006474 | BITUMINOUS FROTH INLINE STEAM INJECTION PROCESSING - An inline bitumen froth steam heater system including steam injection and static mixing devices is provided. The system heats and de-aerates input bitumen froth without creating downstream processing problems with the bitumen froth such as emulsification or live steam entrainment. The system is a multistage unit that injects and thoroughly mixes steam with bitumen resulting in output bitumen material having temperature of about 190° F. The system conditions a superheated steam supply to obtain saturated steam at about 300° F. The saturated steam is contacted with bitumen froth flow and mixed in a static mixer stage. The static mixers provide surface area and rotating action that allows the injected steam to condense and transfer its heat to the bitumen froth. The mixing action and increase in temperature of the bitumen froth results in reduction in bitumen viscosity and allows the release of entrapped air from the bitumen froth. | 01-14-2010 |

20150163220 | METHOD FOR AUTHENTICATING A USER OF A CONTACTLESS CHIP CARD - A method is intended for authenticating a user of a contactless chip card by means of a contactless card reader. This method comprises the steps of: (i) using this contactless card reader for acquiring a first image of at least a part of the user hand that holds the card when it is presented to this contactless card reader, (ii) comparing this first image with a second image stored into this contactless chip card, this second image defining a reference image of at least this part of the user hand when it holds the contactless chip card, to determine if this first image is similar to this second image, and (iii) authenticating this user if this first image is effectively similar to this second image. | 06-11-2015 |
