PRINTING SYSTEM, OPERATION SYSTEM, PRINTER, AND TERMINAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18460301 titled 'PRINTING SYSTEM, OPERATION SYSTEM, PRINTER, AND TERMINAL

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a printing system consisting of a printer and a terminal that can communicate wirelessly. The printer has a portable main body, a movement detection unit, and a processor. The terminal has a display unit and a processor.

  • The printer's movement detection unit detects movements of the printer main body.
  • The printer's processor transmits a first control signal to the terminal when it detects a first movement and a second control signal when it detects a second movement.
  • The terminal's processor receives the control signals from the printer.
  • The terminal's display unit shows a first operation screen when it receives the first control signal and a second operation screen when it receives the second control signal.

Potential Applications

  • This printing system could be used in offices or homes where wireless communication between a printer and a terminal is desired.
  • It could be used in mobile printing applications where a portable printer is needed.

Problems Solved

  • This system eliminates the need for physical connections between the printer and the terminal, making it more convenient and flexible.
  • The movement detection feature allows for automatic switching of operation screens on the terminal, enhancing user experience.

Benefits

  • Wireless communication between the printer and terminal allows for greater mobility and flexibility in printing.
  • The automatic switching of operation screens based on printer movements simplifies the user interface and improves efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

A printing system includes a printer and a terminal capable of wirelessly communicating with each other. The printer include a portable printer main body, a movement detection unit that detects a movement of the printer main body, and a first processor configured to transmit a first control signal to the terminal in a case where a first movement is detected by the movement detection unit, and transmit a second control signal to the terminal in a case where a second movement is detected by the movement detection unit. The terminal includes a display unit, a second processor configured to receive the control signals from the printer; and display a first operation screen on the display unit in a case where the first control signal is received, and display a second operation screen on the display unit in a case where the second control signal is received.
