Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes intersecting a clip polygon with a source image, determining destination coordinates of the clip polygon, rasterizing the clip polygon, determining a bounding box, dividing the bounding box into a plurality of logical destination tiles, processing the destination tiles to determine coordinates of source tiles corresponding to each of the destination tiles and performing rotation processing of the source tiles, wherein each tile is processed independently.

Abstract: One embodiment comprises a system that includes a first print head that applies a colorant to a medium based on a first bitmap that indicates printable features for the medium, and a second print head that applies a clear protectant to the medium based on a second bitmap. The system receives the first bitmap, and replicates the printable features in the first bitmap to generate the second bitmap. The system identifies boundaries of the printable features in the second bitmap, and expands the boundaries of the printable features in the second bitmap where the clear protectant is applied to the medium. The system directs the first print head to apply the colorant to the medium to form the printable features based on the first bitmap, and directs the second print head to apply the clear protectant to the printable features formed on the medium based on the second bitmap.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes analyzing color planes of a compressed sheetside image and generating an overcoat plane based on the color planes.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes analyzing a meta-data structure corresponding to each tile of a sheetside image to detect a blank state of the sheetside image, detecting a sensing display item in a data stream and scanning the sheetside image in response to detecting the sensing display item.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes receiving print job data at a printing system, performing constraint checking of the print job data to detect one or more invalid print requirements and applying corrective actions upon detecting one or more invalid print requirements in order to facilitate printing of the print job data.

Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes receiving a data stream and performing Run Length Limited (RLL) encoding to encode the data stream, including adjusting run types and lengths and aligning headers to boundaries of a decoding system.
