Abstract: To control an electrical parameter of an imaging surface (20), a patch generator (34, 16,37) records a first control patch at a first voltage level and a second control patch at a second voltage level on the imaging surface. An electrostatic voltmeter (ESV)(33) measures voltage potentials associated with the first and second control patches. A processor (12), in communication with said patch generator, calculates electrical parameter of the imaging surface from the measured voltage potentials from said first and second control patches. The processor determines a deviation between the calculated electrical parameter values and setup values. Then, the processor can produce and send a feedback error signal to said patch generator if said deviation exceeds a threshold level. The patch generator can record a third control patch at a third voltage level on the imaging surface upon reception of said error signal. The ESV senses said third control patch. The processor can calculate electrical parameters of the imaging surface from the measured voltage potential of the third control patch and can determine a correction factor. The charging device, exposure system and developer are adjusted in accordance to the correction factor.

Abstract: In a colour video transmission system, intelligible information, such as text, is transmitted on the blue colour component of the signal, and interference is transmitted on the red and green colour components. When the video display is viewed normally, the information cannot be discerned. If viewed through blue filter or blue spectacles, the green and red interference is rendered invisible and the information can now be seen. The interference may be random noise, but is preferably similar in type to the desired information, e.g. text. No modification is required to the receiver, and two viewers viewing the same display can decide independently whether to see the hidden information or not.

Inventor: SHAW GEORGE H J
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1997-06-19
Abstract: A method and computer program product for synchronizing
processing between two or more data streams ( e . g ., video and
sound input) and for rate matching between two different
hardware clocks that may drift with respect to one another
( e . g ., an originating clock represented in a timestamped data
stream versus a clock actually rendering the data) in a system
of interconnected software drivers running in kernel mode. The
present invention overcomes the coordination complexity and
inaccuracies in the prior art by providing a clocking mechanism
in a system wherein multiple drivers having input and output
connection pin instances are chained together. The clocking
mechanism synchronizes between data streams by providing a
master clock on an input pin instance of a driver that is used
to synchronize with other input pin instances on other drivers
and "slave" clocks. Synchronization is achieved through event
notification or stream position queries so that corresponding
frames of data in separate streams are rendered together ( e . g .,
video frames with corresponding sound track). Rate matching is
achieved through monitoring a physical clock progression in
comparison with a series of data stream timestamps thereby
allowing adjustments to match the different clock rates. A
common physical clock ( e . g ., PC clock) can be used as a
reference for a component to translate a particular clock time
to a time shared by all components with a minimum of error.

Abstract: A wave generation circuit is disclosed, in which a
complex waveform can be generated without increasing the
ROM data amount or increasing the reading rate. Waveform
data relating to a waveform and the generation thereof
are stored in a ROM (651) for each cycle. An address signal
for reading the waveform data sequentially is produced
sequentially by an address generation circuit (71,81). The
waveform data read out are sequentially reproduced into a
waveform signal by a waveform data output circuit (73,84). In a
wave generating circuit including the ROM and the address
generation circuit (71,81),the waveform data includes the
extension information instructing to extend and reproduce
the waveform data for a particular cycle. An extension
and control circuit (72) included in the wave generation
circuit decides on the presence or absence of the
extension information from the read waveform data, and in
the presence of the extension information, controls the
waveform data output circuit (73,84) to maintain the output of a
corresponding waveform signal while at the same time
controlling the address generation circuit (71,81) to retard the
generation of the address signal. The wave generation
circuit can generate a single waveform data in an
extended form according to the extension information when
the same data continues for a plurality of cycles,
thereby reducing the waveform data amount and the ROM
capacity.

Abstract: A host device successively sends print data
constituting a plurality of sets of copies of a document to
be printed to a printer capable of printing on both sides
of printing paper. If each set of copies to be printed
consists of an odd number of pages, a blank page is inserted
as the reverse side of the last page to make the total number
of pages of the set of copies an even number. The print data
thus created is sent to the printer as a single job. This
makes it possible to prevent the last page of one set of copies
and the first page of another set of copies from being printed
on the same sheet of paper, thereby allowing each set of copies
to be printed as a discrete set independent of other sets.
Print job management is performed on the basis of a single
print job.
