Printing Techniques To Hide Swath Boundary Banding

View page
US Patent:
6578943, Jun 17, 2003
Filed:
Oct 31, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/004147
Inventors:
Dan Arquilevich - Portland OR
William S. Osborne - Camas WA
Tod S. Heiles - Vancouver WA
Mun Yew Lee - Singapore, SG
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B41J 2205
US Classification:
347 15, 347 43, 347 98
Abstract:
The present invention provides a dynamic adjustment for black ink volume to print a black object whose height is greater than one swath of the inkjet printer. The black ink volume is increased by using a greater number of nozzles compared to the number of nozzles used to print color or a second fluid for underprinting the black ink.

Pen Alignment Using A Color Sensor

View page
US Patent:
6582052, Jun 24, 2003
Filed:
Sep 9, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/238860
Inventors:
Sam Sarmast - Vancouver WA
Tod S. Heiles - Vancouver WA
Algird M. Gudaitis - Vancouver WA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B41J 29393
US Classification:
347 19, 347 43, 101486
Abstract:
A pen alignment method for a multi-pen printer is provided, the method including directing a first pen to print a first pattern of a first color, directing a second pen to print a second pattern of a second color in a predetermined relative alignment with the first pattern to form a test block, determining an actual hue of the test block via spectral analysis of the test block using a color sensor, and comparing the actual hue of the test block with an expected hue of the test block to determine whether the first and second pens are misaligned relative to each other, wherein the expected hue of the test block is the hue that would be detected if the first pen and second pen were correctly aligned.

Calibrating System For A Compact Optical Sensor

View page
US Patent:
6655778, Dec 2, 2003
Filed:
Oct 2, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/970196
Inventors:
Dan Arquilevich - Portland OR
Algird M. Gudaitis - Vancouver WA
Sam Sarmast - Vancouver WA
Tod S. Heiles - Vancouver WA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B41J 29393
US Classification:
347 19, 347 14
Abstract:
A compact optical sensing system is used in hardcopy devices for scanning and/or printing images, for instance, using inkjet printing technology in desktop printing or in photographic printers appearing in grocery and variety stores. Several light emitting diodes (âLEDsâ) illuminate a sheet of print media, and one or more photodiodes receive light reflected from the sheet. The photodiode generates signals in response to the light received, and the hardcopy device uses these signals to adjust printing parameters for optimal print quality. Using a chip-on-board process, the bare silicon die for each component is wire bonded directly to a printed circuit board assembly, allowing at least four LEDs (blue, green, red and soft-orange) to be grouped closely together in a space smaller than that occupied by a factory-made, single-packaged LED. A calibrating system uses a white target covered for cleanliness by a windowed door which is opened/closed by a printhead carriage.

Method To Correct For Color Error Caused By Malfunctioning Ink Ejection Elements

View page
US Patent:
6722751, Apr 20, 2004
Filed:
Jan 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/061931
Inventors:
Jeffrey H. Barr - San Diego CA
Jennifer Korngiebel - San Diego CA
Tod S. Heiles - Vancouver WA
Steven L Webb - Murrieta CA
Jeffrey D Rutland - San Diego CA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B41J 29393
US Classification:
347 19, 347 43
Abstract:
A method of correcting for malfunctioning ink ejection elements in a printing system using a single pass over a recording medium which includes obtaining a standard printmask, identifying ink ejection elements which are malfunctioning, ascertaining an original color measurement value for each pixel which will be printed with the malfunctioning ink ejection elements, determining a replacement color measurement value closest in value to the original color measurement value which does not use the malfunctioning ink ejection elements for each pixel which will be printed with the malfunctioning ink ejection elements and modifying the standard printmask by adjusting the number and color of ink drops deposited based on the replacement color measurement value for each pixel which will be printed with the malfunctioning ink ejection elements to create a modified printmask.

Printer With Print Mode Masking Periodic Carriage Vibration

View page
US Patent:
6819448, Nov 16, 2004
Filed:
Sep 28, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/162340
Inventors:
Kenneth R. William - Vancouver WA
Tod S Heiles - Vancouver WA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
G06K 1502
US Classification:
358 15, 347 27, 347 32, 347 37, 347 39, 358296
Abstract:
A shuttle-type printer has a movable carriage to carry and position at least one pen over a printing surface. The printer also has a carriage positioning system coupled to move the carriage at a slew rate in swaths over the printing surface. The carriage positioning system starts the carriage at a starting position for individual swaths. The carriage positioning system implements techniques for masking the effects of periodic vibrations in the printer. According to one technique, the carriage positioning system varies the starting position for the individual swaths. According to a second technique, the carriage positioning system makes multiple passes before advancing the recording media and varies the slew rate for individual passes. The techniques do not eliminate or reduce the vibrations themselves, but mask their effects in the print results that are caused by period vibrations in the printer.
