Abstract: A printer (20) has a print head (26) with multiple nozzles (28) and an
encoder (32) to encode print head data into firing bits used to determine various
firing patterns of the print head nozzles. A decoder (36) is integrated on the print
head to decode the firing bits into firing pulses used to fire selected print head
nozzles. The encoder (32) encodes the print head data in such a manner that there
are fewer firing bits than there are possible firings controlled by the firing bits.
For instance, the encoder encodes the print head data such that "n" firing bits
define 2 n  firing levels (where "n" is an integer), with each firing level defining a
different number of firings. With the multi-level encoding, the encoder is able to
control more than n possible firings with each n firing bits.

Abstract: Match selection circuits are connected to
respective ones of match lines connecting corresponding
rows of CAM cells associated with word lines. A match
selection control circuit, the inputs of which are the
word lines, generates match line inhibit signals that
inhibit a search when a data search is conducted in the
CAM. On the basis of a precharge signal from a control
circuit and a match line inhibit signal from the match
selection control circuit applied thereto, the match
selection circuits inhibit a data search in row-direction
CAM cells connected to the match lines that are connected
to these match selection circuits, respectively, thereby
specifying a data search range in terms of individual word
lines. A match line corresponding to each word line in
the specified search range attains a non-match state
regardless of whether the result of a search is a match
or non-match. Thus a data search range is specified by
the positions of selected word lines. The number of data
search operations is reduced and less power is consumed
when the CAM operates.

Abstract: A fuel vapor storage canister (10) having a screen module (52)
between carbon granules (94) in the canister and a purge port (50) of the
canister. The screen module (52) includes a module body (54) defining a
plenum (62), a flat plastic foam screen (72) seated on an uninterrupted edge of
a raised boss (60) on the module body around the plenum, and a retainer (74)
clamped to the module body over the flat foam screen. A tubular stem (68)
on the module body (54) plugs into a socket (36A) in the storage canister (10).
An interference fit between the tubular stem (68) and the socket (36A)
prevents migration of carbon granules between the socket and the tubular
stem. The foam screen (72) is exposed to the carbon granules through a
window in a planar side (76) of the retainer (74) which planar side, in a seated
position of the retainer on the module body, cooperates with the uninterrupted
edge of the raised boss (60) in compressing a segment (84) of the foam screen
to define a seal around the window. Hooks (90) on the module body (54)
cooperate with resilient loops (82) on the retainer (74) in maintaining the
integrity of the seal around the foam screen (72) by preventing release of the
retainer from its seated position on the module body.

Abstract: An RF coil structure for intra-cavity use comprises a pair of conductors 7, 8 separated
by a support such as a web 9 which come together at positions separated along the
length of the coil structure such as A, B. Previous coils have consisted of two parallel
conductors. If the conductors 7 and 8 were parallel, while the structure could be flexed
transverse to the plane of the web 9 about the arrow 10, it could not be flexed in the
plane of the web 9 about arrows 12, 13. Because the conductors come together at
points A and B, it can be so flexed. A second coil may be provided consisting of
conductors 4, 5 and flexing about the same points as for the first coil is still possible
because the points of closest approach for one pair come between those for the other
pair.

Abstract: An idle speed control system for a direct injection
spark ignition engine controlled to operate in either
homogeneous air/fuel modes or stratified air/fuel modes.
When operating in a stratified air/fuel mode, engine idle
speed is controlled by controlling the engine air/fuel
during unthrottled operation. When operating stratified and
also throttled, engine idle speed is controlled by both
controlling air/fuel and controlling the throttle. When
operating in the homogeneous modes, engine idle speed is
controlled by controlling both the throttle and ignition
timing.

Abstract: The invention accurately meters usage of an electrophotographic
printer/copier (EPC) (10) by counting the number of pages that are ejected to an
output bin (22) of the EPC (10) and incrementing a user charge value (49)
accordingly. Further, the invention determines a toner parameter value (44) that
is related to an amount of toner used on each page and bases the user charge
value (49), at least in part, on such toner parameter value (44). The toner
parameter value (44) is preferably determined by counting a number of pixels
that are imaged on a page. The invention further utilizes a non-volatile memory
(28) to maintain copies of usage total values, while concurrently storing such
usage total values on a disk memory (26). If an attempt is made to substitute a
different disk memory (26) in the EPC (10), usage parameter values are updated
thereon through use of values stored in the non-volatile memory (28).

moved in a traveling direction (TD). The thermosetting matrix
resin is supplied to an outer circumferential surface of a

substrate (1) while the reinforcing substrate moves. The
thermosetting matrix resin which is transferred to the first
surface (1a) is forced to permeate through the reinforcing

thermosetting matrix resin transferred to the first surface (1a)
while the reinforcing substrate (1) moves. The reinforcing
substrate (1) impregnated with the thermosetting matrix resin is
