  • Publication number: 20210323333
    Abstract: Imaging medium includes an image-receiving substrate including a color-forming layer, a donor ribbon attached to the image-receiving substrate and including a color layer, and a repeated pattern. The repeated pattern is defined by a portion of each of the color-forming layer and color layer. A repeat of the pattern includes at least three adjacent colored stripes including a cyan or cyan-forming stripe, a magenta or magenta-forming stripe, and a yellow or yellow-forming stripe. A first of the at least three adjacent stripes is a color-forming stripe in the color-forming layer. A second of the at least three adjacent stripes is a colored stripe in the color layer. A third of the at least three adjacent stripes is either a second color-forming stripe in the color-forming layer or a second colored stripe in the color layer of the donor ribbon.

  • Patent number: 11034170
    Abstract: In an example of recording medium identification method, a digital image of a line or a dot printed on a recording medium with a printer is captured by an image sensor. From the digital image, a microprocessor (operatively connected to the image sensor), digitally measures a width of the line, a diameter of the dot, an area of the dot, or a perimeter of the dot. The microprocessor identifies a type of the recording medium based on the width, the diameter, the area, or the perimeter. In response to the identification of the type of the recording medium, a print setting for the type of the recording medium is selected.

  • Patent number: 10974513
    Abstract: An example of an ink supply includes an ink chamber containing a liquid ink, a salt chamber containing a salt solution, a separator positioned between the liquid ink and the salt solution, and a release mechanism. The separator completely separates the liquid ink from the salt solution prior to the release mechanism being triggered. The release mechanism has a triggered position and a retracted position. The triggered position causes the separator to at least partially open, and enables the liquid ink and the salt solution to be combined to form a mixture.
