Abstract:
Methods and systems for facilitating drying of media in a high-speed digital printer (e.g., a cut-sheet aqueous ink jet printing system). The high-speed digital printer includes a dryer module composed of a group of dryers that dry media including the test media. In an example embodiment, a series of test media can be printed at increasingly higher ink loading. The moisture content of the test media is monitored at each exit of each dryer to generate data indicative of the threshold at which the dryer module is no longer able to effectively dry the test media. Data resulting from such moisture content monitoring is fed to a marking engine and/or image path of the high-speed digital printer to generate a linearization profile in-situ. Such a linearization profile includes ink volume limiting linearization data that is used to ensure that media exiting the dryer module are dry.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 2  wherein:\n said at least one media sensor among said plurality of media sensors is installed at a respective entrance and at a respective exit of each dryer among said plurality of dryers; \n said at least one media sensor further comprises a probe comprising a non-contact eddy probe that measures a sheet resistance across said media; \n said optical sensor comprises a linear array of photo detectors and a light source; and \n said sheet feed module comprising at least one feeder, where said at least one feeder includes a shuttle vacuum head to pick a sheet off of a stack of sheets and deliver said sheet to said transport.
