  • Boot image loading
    Patent number: 11288077
    Abstract: An example printer includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The printer also includes a boot engine communicatively coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium. The boot engine is to load a boot image into a first portion of the non-transitory computer-readable medium. The boot image includes data from an operational state of an operating system. The printer includes a configuration engine. The configuration engine is to program a second portion of the non-transitory computer-readable medium while the boot engine is loading the boot image.

  • Power management for electronic devices
    Patent number: 10739835
    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure a method of is described. According to the method, usage data for an electronic device is obtained. An activity phase from a plurality of activity phases for the electronic device is selected based on the usage data. An activity phase has a corresponding timeout period and is defined by an inter-arrival threshold. The electronic device is instructed to enter a low power mode after being inactive for a time period at least as great as the timeout period corresponding to a selected activity phase.

  • Printing device and method
    Patent number: 7484731
    Abstract: A device and method for assisting a user to clear a media jam in a printing device that announces pages, picks media responsively to the announced pages and images the picked media using a media transport path, that: detects a media jam at a given location along the media transport path; halts printing device components upstream from the given location in the media path while continuing to image picked media downstream from the given location in the media transport path; and, prompts the user to clear the detected media jam from the given location after all downstream media has been imaged.
