Abstract: A writing device to write on a media, which includes a passive electronic paper display and a storage medium. The writing device comprises a first component to at least read the storage medium and a second component to at least write to the electronic paper display during relative movement between the second component and the media.

Abstract: Apparatus, printers, and methods to remove material from a printer surface are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a fluid remover to remove printing material from a printer surface, and a coating material reservoir to store coating material and to apply the coating material to the fluid remover to reduce an amount of printing material transferred to the fluid remover from the printer surface.

Abstract: A coater assembly includes an array of side-by-side selectively closable slot portions to control pressurized fluid flow onto a substrate during relative movement between the coater assembly and the substrate to form a coating pattern on the substrate. A control module produces the coating pattern via control over selective independent closure of the slot portions based on a mapping matrix of individually addressable coatable elements.

Abstract: A media includes a frame and an e-paper display recessed relative to a portion of the frame.

Abstract: A media includes at least one passive e-paper display. The display has a first side and an opposite, second side, with the display defining an image-bearing surface that is generally co-extensive with substantially the entire first side.

Abstract: An e-paper imaging system includes a writing unit and a support surface to support a passive e-paper media in a position spaced apart from the writing unit. The writing unit includes a charge generator and an electrode array. The electrode array includes addressable holes to control charges flowing to the support surface.

Abstract: A display device includes an electronic paper display imageable by receiving charges on an imaging surface of the electronic paper display. The display device includes an electrode opposite to the imaging surface of the electronic paper display. A network of conductors is on the imaging surface of the electronic paper display and electrically coupled to the electrode.

Abstract: A display device includes an electronic paper display imageable by receiving charges on an imaging surface of the electronic paper display, a ground electrode, and a ground access stripe. The ground electrode is opposite to the imaging surface of the electronic paper display. The ground access stripe is on a surface of the display device and electrically coupled to the ground electrode.

Abstract: One example of a mobile Imaging device includes a single ion source, a ground connector, and an interface. The single ion source is to erase and write to an electronic paper display by depositing charges onto an imaging surface of the electronic paper display as the imaging device and the electronic paper display are moved relative to each other. The electronic paper display includes a ground return path. The ground connector maintains an electrical connection to the ground return path as the imaging device and the electronic paper display are moved relative to each other during erasing or writing to the electronic paper display. The interface is for transferring data between the imaging device and a computing devise.

Abstract: Print glossing is described. Print glossing can be performed on a glossing drum having a location affixed to a circumferential outer surface thereof, where the location transits from a first position in an apparatus having a first temperature range selected to enable reflow of ink applied to a substrate that is placed at the location to a second position in the apparatus having a second temperature range selected for clean release from the location of the ink applied to the substrate.

Abstract: A display device includes an electronic paper display, a ground electrode, and a first contact. The electronic paper display is imageable by receiving charges on an imaging surface of the electronic paper display. The ground electrode is opposite to the imaging surface of the electronic paper display. The first contact is on a surface of the display device and electrically coupled to a first side of the ground electrode.

Abstract: A printing system (30, 40, 40?, 50, 50?) includes at least one ejector coupled to a reservoir (38) that is configured to contain a printing composition including a hydrocarbon having at least one unsaturated bond. The hydrocarbon is configured to at least one of polymerize or crosslink in the presence of a reactive species. The at least one ejector is configured to eject the printing composition onto a surface (34, 36, 10). The system (30, 40, 40?, 50, 50?) further includes a corona generator (32, 32?, 32?, 32??) configured to generate the reactive species in situ. The corona generator (32, 32?, 32?, 32??) is positioned with respect to the reservoir (38) such that the reactive species is exposed to the printing composition after the printing composition has been ejected onto the surface (34, 36, 10). The polymerizing and/or the cross-linking of the hydrocarbon is configured to form a polymer matrix (12) from the ejected printing composition.

Abstract: A printing assembly includes a pressure control tank and a printhead assembly. The printhead assembly is in fluid communication with the pressure control tank while the printhead assembly and the pressure control tank are selectively rotatable into a plurality of different positions relative to one another.

Abstract: An imaging device can include an imaging drum to support a carrier fluid. A roller can remove a portion of the carrier fluid from the imaging drum. A fluid container can collect the carrier fluid from the roller. A fluid remover on the container can be used to remove the carrier fluid from the roller.

Abstract: An imaging method includes coating a transfer member with an adhesion promoter in a liquid state, changing the adhesion promoter on the transfer member from the liquid state to at least one of a solid state and a get state, depositing a liquid marking agent on the solidified adhesion promoter corresponding to an image, changing a state of the adhesion promoter from the solid state to the flowable state, and transferring the liquid marking agent and the adhesion promoter in the flowable state from the transfer member to a substrate to form a hard version of the image thereon.

Abstract: A coating system includes a leveling element and a dispenser assembly. The leveling element extends generally transverse to a substrate advance orientation and is releasably engageable against a substrate support. The dispenser assembly includes an array of side-by-side independent liquid dispensers and an air pressure assembly to supply a common air pressure to each dispenser to cause pressurized dispensing of a coating liquid from each dispenser onto a substrate on the substrate support. The liquid dispensing occurs at least during relative movement between the dispenser assembly and the substrate support and during the relative movement, the leveling element is actuated to uniformize the coating liquid on the substrate.
