Patent number: 11593044Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which is stored instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to determine that data stored in a memory device of a printer cartridge installed in a printing device is to be updated. The printing device may be in remote communication with the apparatus via a network connection. The instructions may also cause the processor to identify update data that is to be used to update the data stored in the memory device. The instructions may further cause the processor to communicate, via the network connection with the printing device, the identified update data to the printing device. The printing device may update the data stored in the memory device of the printer cartridge with the update data.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Gabriel Scott McDaniel, Paul L Jeran, Juan Carlos Guzman, George Henry Kerby, Katelyn Christene Morse

Patent number: 11577520Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a refill container is described. The refill container includes a reservoir to house a volume of print compound and a chamber to house a pressurized fluid. A wall separates the reservoir from the chamber. A pressure release device of the refill container creates a fluid path between the chamber and the reservoir such that the pressurized fluid flows into the reservoir to mix with the volume of print compound. A trigger of the refill container activates the pressure release device.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2018Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Gabriel Scott McDaniel, Jeffrey Harold Luke, Sean Daniel FitzGerald

Patent number: 11340845Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which are stored computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, may cause the processor to determine a property of dust based on information associated with the dust in a printing device. The processor may classify the dust according to the determined property of the dust and may determine a predicted failure mode associated with the dust classification. The processor may output an instruction associated with the predicted failure mode.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2021Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Gabriel Scott Mcdaniel, Brian Christopher Mayer, Jeffrey Harold Luke
