Abstract: The present invention teaches a system for site management, and more specifically, for disaster site management. The system incorporates a network backbone for communication in a rugged, weather-resistant, flexibly-deployable scheme for monitoring and maintaining access to site perimeters, and providing access to personnel arriving at the site, while maintaining accountability and security in all operational procedures of the system. The system includes smart cards which contain personnel credentials, including biometric indicators. Real-time enrollment and authorization of personnel can be performed on-site, both on-line and off-line. The system can also employ virtual fences, CCTV with motion detection, central alarm management, external network interoperability, and satellite network systems for broader system coverage.

Abstract: A smart passport comprising a smart inlay that includes a core substrate operative to store and exchange information contactlessly with an external reader, at least one physical security component coupled to the core substrate and operative to render the smart inlay and thereby the passport tamper-proof, and a logical security component incorporated in the core substrate and operative to render the smart inlay and thereby the passport forgery-proof. The physical security component is preferably selected from the group at least one tear line and at least one patterned adhesive, both operative to cause irreversible damage to the information storage and communication capabilities of the passport in case of tampering.

Abstract: A method of adjusting imaging apparatus including: (a) charging a photoreceptor surface to a first voltage; (b) selectively discharging portions of the charged photoreceptor surface, with a beam of electromagnetic energy such as a laser beam or LED output, having a controllable power, to form a predefined electrostatic latent test image on the photoreceptor surface; (c) developing, using a second voltage different from the first voltage, a layer of charged toner particles onto the selectively discharged portions of the photoreceptor surface, thereby providing a developed test image corresponding to the latent test image; (d) measuring the apparent optical density of portions of the developed test image, including a solid print portion and a predetermined gray level portion; (e) comparing the measured solid and gray level optical densities with predetermined, desired, solid and gray level optical densities; and (f) adjusting the second voltage and the power of the laser beam based on the comparison between the

Abstract: Imaging apparatus including an imaging surface having a toner image formed thereon and an intermediate transfer member, which receives the toner image from the imaging surface and from which it is subsequently transferred. The intermediate transfer member includes a drum having mounting recesses formed therein and an intermediate transfer blanket mounted on the drum. The blanket has a layered transfer portion having a transfer surface on one face thereof which receives the toner image and optionally an adhesive layer on the opposite face thereof and a mounting fixture, attached to one edge of the layered transfer portion and adapted to mate with the mounting recesses in the drum, whereby the transfer blanket is fixedly and removably mounted on the drum.

Abstract: An intermediate transfer member having a release surface suitable for receiving liquid toner images which include toner particles and a hydrocarbon carrier liquid from a first surface and for transferring them to a second surface, wherein the release surface includes a silicone material, preferably, a oxime cured silicone rubber. Imaging apparatus incorporating the member preferably includes a device for removing excess carrier liquid from the silicone material after an image is transferred to the second surface.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus incorporating a substantially rectangular organic photoreceptor sheet having a base layer, a conductive layer and a photoconductive layer, wherein along one edge of the photoreceptor sheet there is an exposed conductive area, a drum having a longitudinal cavity formed therein and including a slot formed between the cavity and the cylindrical surface of the drum into which the one edge of the photoreceptor sheet is inserted and a rotatable element within the cavity which, in a locking position, presses the photoreceptor sheet against a wall of the cavity, fixedly and removably holding the photoreceptor sheet in place.
