  • Publication number: 20060039038
    Abstract: A multi-function peripheral which outputs image data for multiple uses includes a scanning unit, a memory, a processor, a plurality of output units and an operation interface. The scanning unit scans a to-be-scanned object and generates an image signal, which is temporarily stored in the memory. The processor processes the image signal into a plurality of different output signals. The output unit generates a plurality of output results according to the output signals, respectively. The operation interface is for selecting at least two of output options provided and initiates a scan process, so that the processor processes the image signal into at least two output signals corresponding to the at least two output options and at least two of the output units generate at least two output results corresponding to the at least two output signals.

  • Publication number: 20050057782
    Abstract: A mail recognizing and processing system includes a document scanner and a mail processing machine. The document scanner includes a scanning module, a processor, and a network interface. The scanning module is for scanning a document set and obtaining to-be-delivered mail information, which includes receiptor data and mail content data. The processor is for processing the mail information into a first digital signal. The first digital signal includes the separated receiptor data and mail content data and is outputted from the network interface. The mail processing machine receives the first digital signal of the document scanner via a network and produces a deliverable mail package according to the receiptor data and the mail content data of the first digital signal.

  • Patent number: 6764172
    Abstract: An air bag placed in a print cartridge and a method for manufacturing the same are provided, wherein a layered material with two faces of different ingredients are utilized. After cutting and opening of connection holes and air vent holes, flexible stacking according to the capacity requirement of the air bag and thermal pressuring are performed. Through the characteristic that two low-melting-point ingredients can be affixed together but two high-melting-point ingredients or a low-melting-point ingredient and a high-melting-point ingredient cannot be affixed together, the whole air bag can be integrally formed. The air bag forms a plurality of receiving rooms having connected air vent holes. The air bag can be folded up to make inflation and deflation, hence filling up the ink-storage capacity of the print cartridge. Moreover, the back pressure can be adjusted.
