Patent number: 8606165Abstract: A system for heated gas fusing of toner on non-porous substrates is provided. The system uses (1) an extended fusing zone held at lower temperatures than needed for a roll nip or radiant fuser, and (2) a very low melt toner which can be fused at greatly reduced temperatures compared to conventional toners. In one form, the system is realized through (a) the use of heated gas as the low temperature extended zone fusing technology, and (b) the use of ultra-low melt (ULM) toner—which requires significantly reduced temperature compared to conventional toner. On non-porous packaging substrates the use of heated gas can limit the substrate temperature to 100° C.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2008Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignees: Xerox Corporation, Palo Alto Research Center IncorporatedInventors: Gregory J. Kovacs, Ashish Pattekar, David Biegelsen, Lars E. Swartz, Guerino G. Sacripante, T. Brian McAneney, Edward G. Zwartz

Patent number: 8600949Abstract: A request is received to remove duplicate data. A log data container associated with a storage volume in a storage server is accessed. The log data container includes a plurality of entries. Each entry is identified by an extent identifier in a data structures stored in a volume associated with the storage server. For each entry in the log data container, a determination is made if the entry matches another entry in the log data container. If the entry matches another entry in the log data container, a determination is made of a donor extent and a recipient extent. If an external reference count associated with the recipient extent equals a first predetermined value, block sharing is performed for the donor extent and the recipient extent. A determination is made if the reference count of the donor extent equals a second predetermined value. If the reference count of the donor extent equals the second predetermined value, the donor extent is freed.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2011Date of Patent: December 3, 2013Assignee: NetApp, Inc.Inventors: Subramaniam Periyagaram, Sandeep Yadav, Blake Lewis, Rickard E.
