Abstract: A print control system is provided. The print control system comprises an image capturing device configured to capture an image of at least a portion of a printed image on a printed product of a print device. The print control device further comprises a control system comprising an input device and a module. The input device is configured to allow a user to vary a print parameter. The module is configured to calculate a predictive image based on the print parameter variation from the input device. The predictive image is representative of a resultant image on the printed product following implementation of the print parameter variation on the print device.

Abstract: A night light that transitions between at least two states to provide a visual indication to a child as to whether it is time for the child to get out of bed or that the child should stay in bed. The night light shows an illuminated sun to indicate that the child can get out of bed. The night light shows an illuminated moon with a border of Z's to indicate that the child should stay in bed. The transitions between modes are based on information entered into a user interface, the current time, and/or the actuation of buttons on the device.

Abstract: A method of monitoring network elements in a communications network includes querying the network elements for reboot and/or reconfiguration event data, identifying a group of the network elements responsive to the querying, and updating information for the identified group of network elements in a network configuration database. The method may further include extracting information from the identified group of network elements into independently searchable databases. The invention may be embodied as methods, data processing systems and computer program products.

Abstract: A printing machine includes a high-speed print device configured to receive a print media and discharge a printed product that includes a printed image. An image capturing device is positioned adjacent the print device and is configured to capture an image of the printed image on the printed product. A computer includes a monitor, a processor, an input device, and a communication device configured to communicate with the print device. The monitor is configured to display the captured image, the input device is configured to allow a user to vary the displayed image, and the processor is configured to calculate an adjustment to the print device in response to the varied image.

Abstract: A face seal is provided for a rotating shaft for sealing between a normally high pressure region and a normally lower pressure region, having a seal ring shaped to form a gap between the ring and a runner surface on the shaft, which gap converges in the direction of fluid flow and deliberately creates turbulent flow along the seal gap and sufficient clearance between the rotating runner and the seal ring to accommodate distortions in the seal ring which may occur over its lifetime. A servo system is coupled to the seal ring which moves the seal ring away from the runner during low pressure differences between the regions and which restores the sealing function along the seal gap when the pressure difference between the regions increases sufficiently.
