Abstract: An example system may include a processor and a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by the processor to determine, during an imaging operation by an imaging component of a printing device, whether a print queue, supplied by the imaging component, will be depleted by a printing component of the printing device prior to a completion of the imaging operation; and adjust, based on the determination, a media feed rate of the printing component.

Abstract: A number of monochrome pages printed by a print system in a color mode and a total number of pages printed by the print system are monitored. A ratio of the number of monochrome pages printed by the print system in the color mode to the total number of pages printed by the print system is determined. The print system is switched between the color mode and a monochrome mode of the print system mode based on the ratio so as to reduce color cartridge wear of the print system and/or so as to reduce transitions between the color mode and the monochrome mode while printing monochrome pages.

Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a first hardware component including a first memory and a first processor. The first processor may initiate pairing between the first hardware component and a second hardware component to establish a trusted relationship between the first hardware component and a second hardware component. In response to a successful pairing between the first hardware component and the second hardware component, the processor may compare a first setting of the first hardware component with a second setting of the second hardware component.

Abstract: A rotation base has a base circular structure. A display backing has a backing circular structure. The backing circular structure is rotatably attached to the base circular structure to permit the display backing to rotate between landscape and portrait orientations relative to the rotation base. One of the base and backing circular structures defines a slot. The other of the base and backing circular structures defines a tab rotatably disposed within the slot.

Abstract: A server device receives a request over a network for settings for a printing device having an identifier. The server device determines whether the settings for the printing device were previously received from the printing device and responsively saved by the server device, based on the identifier of the printing device. In response to determining that the settings for the printing device were previously received from the printing device and responsively saved by the server device, the server device transmits the settings over the network to reconfigure the printing device according to the settings.

The processor may further determine a first threshold fuser temperature in response to the determination of the distribution of print content.

Abstract: An example printer includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The printer also includes a boot engine communicatively coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium.

Abstract: An example system includes a client interface to receive a print job from a client device, wherein the print job includes a user identifier (UID) and a current user location. The example system further includes a controller having an adaptive caching portion to determine that the current user location is a new user location for the UID, identify at least one printer identifier (PID) associated with the new user location, and associate the UID with the new user location and the at least one PID. The system further includes a printer interface to adaptively cache the print job in its entirety at least at one printer corresponding to the at least one PID.

Abstract: In one example, a printer with parallel/serial operational sequencing includes an engine control unit and an image processor unit each coupled to a set of sub-systems. A network unit is coupled to the image processor unit to monitor network packets while the engine control unit, the set of sub-systems, and the image processor unit are in sleep states. When a first predetermined packet is received, the network unit signals with a first modulation signal that the image processor unit is to awaken first before the image processor unit determines whether to awaken the engine control unit and any of the set of sub-systems. When a second predetermined packet is received, the network unit signals with a second modulation signal that the image processor unit, the engine control unit, and a portion of the set of sub-systems are to awaken at the same time.

Abstract: A print system with a ratio-based adaptive switching technique includes a printing unit to print an image on a recording medium in a color mode or a monochrome mode. A number (cM) of monochrome pages printed in the color mode and a total number (pN) of printed pages are monitored. A ratio cM/pN that is indicative of excess cartridge wear of the print system is determined. Print-job performance and cartridge wear of the print system are optimized based on the determined ratio using a first and second threshold.

Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a control panel and a control panel processor, which may detect a user input on the control panel while the apparatus is in a low-power state and may determine whether the detected user input corresponds to a user intent for a working component of the apparatus to be implemented. Based on a determination that the detected user input corresponds to a user intent for the working component to be implemented, the control panel processor may output a first signal to a device engine that causes the device engine to start up the working component. In addition, based on a determination that the detected user input does not correspond to a user intent for the working component to be implemented, the control panel processor may output a second signal that does not cause the device engine to start up the working component.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to fast page first print optimization. For example, a system according to the present disclosure, may include a host driver coupled to a printing device. The host driver may send a command to the printing device indicating implementation of a fast page first feature, implement a page description language (PDL) on the printing device that defines print parameters for a print job on a first command of each page of the print job. Moreover, in response to the definition of the print parameters, and during or prior to startup of a print engine on the printing device, the host driver may determine if a print optimization of the fast page first feature would reduce a first page out time (FPOT) of the print job.
