APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROL OR MONITORING A PRINTING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240227386 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROL OR MONITORING A PRINTING SYSTEM
Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to control apparatus and methods of a printing system, for example, comprising an intermediate transfer member (ITM) and to user-related features of a printing system. Some embodiments relate to regulation of a velocity and/or tension and/or length of the ITM. Some embodiments relate to regulation of deposition of ink on the moving ITM. Some embodiments regulate to apparatus configured to alert a user of one or more events related to operation of the ITM. Some embodiments relate to a time-line GUI for visualizing and/or manipulating queued print jobs which may be employed. Some embodiments relate to a reversed augmented reality GUI for visualization and/or control of the printing system. In some embodiments, a display screen is mounted to a printer housing and/or able to control access to moving parts of a printing system.
- Simplified Explanation:
The patent application discusses control apparatus and methods for a printing system, including features related to an intermediate transfer member (ITM) and user interaction. It covers regulating velocity, tension, and ink deposition on the ITM, as well as alerting users about system events. The application also explores graphical user interfaces for print job visualization and control.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Regulation of velocity, tension, and length of the ITM - Control of ink deposition on the moving ITM - Alert system for user notifications - Time-line GUI for managing print jobs - Reversed augmented reality GUI for system visualization and control
- Potential Applications:
- Printing industry for enhanced control and user experience - Graphic design and publishing for improved print quality - Commercial printing services for efficient job management
- Problems Solved:
- Lack of control over ITM velocity, tension, and ink deposition - Inefficient user notification systems - Difficulty in managing print jobs effectively
- Benefits:
- Enhanced control and regulation of printing processes - Improved print quality and efficiency - User-friendly interfaces for better user experience
- Commercial Applications:
Title: Advanced Printing System Control Technology for Enhanced Efficiency This technology can be utilized in commercial printing services to streamline operations, improve print quality, and enhance user experience. The innovative control apparatus and user-related features offer a competitive edge in the printing industry.
- Questions about Printing System Control Technology:
1. How does the regulation of velocity and tension of the ITM impact printing efficiency? - The regulation of velocity and tension ensures consistent and precise printing, leading to improved print quality and overall efficiency.
2. What are the benefits of using a time-line GUI for managing print jobs? - A time-line GUI allows users to visualize and manipulate queued print jobs easily, leading to better organization and workflow optimization.
