  • Patent number: 7431415
    Abstract: In a method and arrangement for data follow-up for warmup cycles of an ink jet print head, a memory stores warmup data of an ink jet print head and a control unit is provided for the driving the ink jet print head and is programmed to implement at least one measurement of the ambient temperature and to access the memory dependent thereon and dependent on predetermined, stored conditions in order to implement a data follow-up corresponding to the temperature-related, history-related and/or user-related conditions for a fast start. Storage of warmup data and data for a first condition ensues upon new installation of an ink cartridge before the first use thereof, and parameter data for second conditions are determined for a fast start given repeated use, and the appertaining warmup data are computationally or tabularly determined given current second conditions.

  • Patent number: 7401402
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for high-frequency tuning a high-frequency plug connector, comprising a printed circuit board that has both contact points for high-frequency contacts as well as contact points for insulation displacement contacts. Each contact point for the high-frequency contacts is connected to one respective contact point for the insulation displacement contacts. Capacitive couplings, which cause a near-end crosstalk, occur between the high-frequency contacts. At least one first conductor path, which is connected on only one side to a contact point of an electrical contact, is situated on the printed circuit board that, together with at least one second conductor path, which is situated on and/or inthe printed circuit board, forms a capacitor.
