Abstract:
1. A multi-function document reproduction system comprising: a graphical user interface to receive a user selection of one of: a PRINT function, an ERASE function, and a RECOVER function; an inkjet printhead for depositing ink onto a media, said ink having thermo-reactive properties such that said ink is visible on said media when a temperature T of said ink is in a temperature range of T at least one controller, in response to a user selection of said PRINT function, directing a media along a transport path to said printhead which deposits said ink onto said media, said controller, in response to a user selection of said ERASE function, directing said media along said transport path to bring said media into proximity to at least one heating element to change a temperature of said ink to at least T≧T said controller, in response to said user's selection being the RECOVER function, directing said media along said transport path to bring said media into proximity to at least one cooling element to change a temperature of said ink to at least T≦T a sensor for sensing a temperature of said media.
