Abstract: A method of printing redundantly in four colors from first and second printheads aligned along a media feed direction. Each of the first and second printheads has respective first and second rows of print chips butted end-on-end, the first and second rows of print chips having 180-degree rotational symmetry. Each row of print chips in one printhead is supplied with the same two inks which are printed from both rows of print chips in that printhead. Compensatory sets of nozzles in the first and second rows of print chips are offset along the media feed direction, by virtue of the 180-degree rotational symmetry, so as to hide print artefacts arising from the compensatory sets of nozzles.

Embodiments provide a system including a column mapping module to receive a target scheme specifying a target structure for the target document, receive transaction data having a source structure, and map at least one source column to at least one target column of the target columns based on application of classification algorithms to features identified from the source transaction data. The system also includes a row classification module to classify the rows of the mapped transaction data into classification categories. The system also includes a validation handler to receive validation input from a user, validating the column mapping and/or the row classification. The validating including accepting the recommendation or rejecting the recommendation and selecting a correct choice.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for producing tradeable environmental attributes such as carbon offsets from the physical movements of users. The solution incorporates the use of a modal shift optimization application executed on a user's device. The application locates alternative transport options, and monitors the user's physical movements as the user travels to the destination using one of the alternative transport options. A carbon offset system receives the user's trip data and calculates project greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the user's journey. The carbon offset system also calculates baseline GHG emissions for a baseline transport option (e.g. single-occupancy private vehicle trip), based at least in part on the baseline emissions factor and a discount factor. The carbon offset system extracts the GHG emissions savings by determining a difference between the baseline and project emissions, which can be validated and verified for the production of carbon offsets.
