PRINTING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING PRINTING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18379716 titled 'PRINTING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING PRINTING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application abstract describes a printing apparatus and method for controlling the apparatus to reduce waste paper production by determining whether to detach a deliverable after completion of a job. If detachment is required, part or all of the next job is printed in an additional print area after the previous job.
- The printing apparatus is designed to reduce waste paper production by optimizing the printing process.
- The method for controlling the printing apparatus involves determining whether to detach a deliverable after job completion.
- If detachment is necessary, the next job is printed in an additional print area to minimize waste.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries where printing is a common practice, such as publishing, packaging, and manufacturing.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the issue of waste paper production in printing processes, helping to reduce environmental impact and improve efficiency.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include reduced waste paper production, cost savings, and improved sustainability in printing operations.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology include printing companies, packaging manufacturers, and any business that relies on printing for its operations.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of duplex printing to reduce paper waste in printing processes. Another could be the implementation of print preview features to avoid unnecessary prints.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does this technology compare to other methods of reducing waste paper in printing processes? 2. What are the potential limitations or drawbacks of implementing this technology in a large-scale printing operation?
Original Abstract Submitted
To provide a printing apparatus capable of reducing the production of waste paper, a method for controlling the printing apparatus, and a storage medium, whether to detach a deliverable after completion of a job is determined, and in a case where the deliverable is to be detached after completion of the job, a part or all of the next job is printed in an additional print area subsequently to the previous job.
