  • PRINTING SYSTEM COMMUNICATION ARCHITECTURE
    Publication number: 20240118843
    Abstract: A print job is processed to produce printed output using a printing component of a device. An input/output device (of the device) is controlled by a processor of the device to output signals to finishing equipment. Such finishing equipment is adapted to manipulate the printed output. The processor of the device causes the signals to include an initial signal indicating the start of a data transfer and subsequent signals following the initial signal. The signals can be in industry-standard format or a format compatible with the finishing device.

  • THREE-DIMENSIONAL (3-D) DIGITAL FINISHING ARCHITECTURE
    Publication number: 20160107392
    Abstract: Systems and methods include/use, among other components, a three-dimensional (3-D) printer creating 3-D items based on 3-D printing information, and a finishing device. The finishing device performs finishing operations on the 3-D item based on finishing information. Also, such systems and methods include a communications device, and the communications device automatically provides the 3-D printing information to the 3-D printer, provides the finishing information to the finishing device, and provides two-way status information updates between the 3-D printer and the finishing device.
