Abstract:
1. A method of imaging and perforating recordable media in an imaging and perforating system comprising: a. receiving recordable media in said system; b. imaging said recordable media to provide imaged media, wherein the imaging comprises forming an image on the recordable media in aligned relationship with at least three points disposed on at least two edges of the recordable media; c. transporting the imaged media to a perforating system by moving a first end of an imaged media support having a pivot, said pivot having a fixed relationship to said imaging system and said punching system, the imaged media support being movable about the pivot between a first position proximate the imaging system and a second position proximate the punching system, the transfer assembly disposed to shuttle between the first and second position; d. determining the at least three points on the imaged media in the punching system based on the at least three points disposed on at least two edges of the recordable media; e. positioning the imaged media within a punch area in the punching system relative to the determined three points on the imaged media; f. perforating the imaged media in the punch area in aligned relationship with the determined at least three points on the imaged media; and g. outputting the punched and imaged media from the system.
