INK JET SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18507162 titled 'INK JET SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an ink jet system that includes a recording apparatus with a head unit for ejecting ink, a processing apparatus for data processing, and a server for connection and executing correction processing in case of ejection failures.
- Recording apparatus with head unit for ink ejection
- Processing apparatus for data processing
- Server for connection and correction processing
- First and second correction processing for different ejection failures
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various industries such as printing, packaging, labeling, and textile for high-quality and efficient printing processes.
Problems Solved
1. Ejection failures in ink jet systems 2. Efficient recovery and correction processing for ejection failures
Benefits
1. Improved printing quality 2. Reduced downtime due to ejection failures 3. Enhanced overall efficiency in printing processes
Potential Commercial Applications
"Efficient Ink Jet System with Ejection Failure Correction Processing" can be used in commercial printing services, packaging companies, textile manufacturers, and labeling industries for high-speed and high-quality printing requirements.
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include ink jet systems with basic ejection failure recovery processes, but the specific combination of recording apparatus, processing apparatus, and server for different correction processing may be unique to this patent application.
Unanswered Questions
How does the system differentiate between first and second ejection failures for appropriate correction processing?
The patent application does not provide specific details on the criteria used to determine whether an ejection failure is a first or second one, and how this classification affects the correction processing.
What are the specific types of recovery and correction processing executed by the server for second ejection failures?
The patent application mentions predetermined recovery processing for first ejection failures and second correction processing by the server for second ejection failures, but it does not elaborate on the specific methods or techniques involved in these processes.
Original Abstract Submitted
An ink jet system includes: a recording apparatus that is equipped with a head unit that ejects ink and executes recording processing for recording on a recording medium; a processing apparatus that is coupled to the recording apparatus and executes data processing for causing the recording apparatus to execute the recording processing; and a server configured to be connected to any one of the recording apparatus and the processing apparatus. When an ejection failure of the head unit is a first ejection failure that is resolved by executing predetermined recovery processing, either the recording apparatus or the processing apparatus executes first correction processing, and when the ejection failure of the head unit is a second ejection failure that is not resolved by executing the predetermined recovery processing, the server executes second correction processing.
