Abstract: A sensing device includes a housing, a supporting component, a grating module, a first roller, a second roller, and a control unit. When a media contacts with the second roller, the second roller drives the first roller to move the supporting component relative to the housing according to a thickness of the media, so as to adjust positions of the first roller and a grating wheel of the grating module relative to the housing. When the media drives the second roller to rotate, the second roller drives the first roller to rotate the grating wheel. The control unit determines whether the media proceeds at a predetermined speed according to a corresponding sensing signal generated by the grating module during rotation of the grating wheel, which allows a user to recognize a progress state of the media.

Abstract: A scanner includes an image capturing module, a drive roller assembly, an idle roller assembly, and a guiding structure. The image capturing module is for capturing an image of an object. The drive roller assembly is for driving the object to move along a feeding direction. The idle roller assembly is for preventing a moving direction of the object away from the feeding direction by resiliently pressing the object. A feeding passage is formed between the drive roller assembly and the idle roller assembly. The guiding structure is disposed in front of the feeding passage and for guiding a normal direction of a leading edge of the object to be oblique relative to the feeding direction at an oblique angle. Therefore, the present invention can effectively reduce variation of a resistance force acting on the object as the object moves in the feeding path, which prevents image distortion.

Abstract: A system and a method using matrix barcode information to perform point-to-point information exchange are provided. An electronic device is connected to a document-processing device by way of wired connection and instantly exchange information with a mobile device held by a user. The electronic device and the mobile device are wirelessly connected through matrix barcode information. The electronic device provides a file transfer zone for storing information to be transmitted. When the user transmits a remote command to the electronic device through the mobile device, the electronic device directly drives the document-processing device according to the remote command for the document-processing device to perform a corresponding automated document-processing action, such as scanning or printing. Given the instant information exchange scheme established based on the matrix barcode information, the document-processing efficiency can be enhanced.

Abstract: A fixation device performing a fixation process on a medium in conjunction with a pressure roller includes: a fuser heating to a predetermined temperature to perform the fixation process; a temperature sensor senses a temperature of the fuser as time elapses; a controller electrically connected to the fuser and the temperature sensor; and a database connected to the controller and storing heating time data; wherein the controller obtains a heating time period, during which a temperature of the fuser rises from a non-environment temperature to the predetermined temperature, through the temperature sensor, and judges whether the heating time period falls within a qualified range specified by the heating time data. If the heating time period does not fall within the qualified range, then the controller provides an abnormal message, so that the problem of the fixation device can be solved.
