Publication number: 20240083165Abstract: A method of operating a printer identifies image areas in ink image content data that are likely to affected by airflow disturbances to produce ink blur within an ink image. Inkjets farthest from these areas are selected to eject ink drops into these areas to form portions of an ink image. The image areas identified as being likely to produce ink blur are the leading edge, trailing edge, and side edge of the ink image content data. The ink drops ejected by these selected inkjets and their satellites are less likely to be affected adversely by the airflow disturbances.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2022Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Seemit Praharaj, Jason M. LeFevre, Douglas K. Herrmann, Chu-Heng Liu, Jorge A. Alvarez

Patent number: 11912045Abstract: A method of operating a printer evaluates the effect of printing a print job with two different orientations of the image content data for the print job. The orientation that produces the least increase in the cross-process direction displacement error for the inkjets in the printer is selected for printing the print job. By attenuating the increase in cross-process direction displacement error, the interval between printhead maintenance operations is increased.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Jason M. LeFevre, Seemit Praharaj, Douglas K. Herrmann, Chu-Heng Liu, Jorge A. Alvarez

Patent number: 10104968Abstract: A seat assembly for task-oriented seating comprises a seat support and a seat coupled to the seat support. The seat is movable under load, such as from the user's weight and movements, relative to the seat support. The seat has a cushion molded over a supporting armature with multiple bias elements. The seat and seat support are configured to deflect by predetermined amounts at defined locations over an extent of the seat assembly. In this way, the seat assembly provides for a range of comfortable and effective positions for users engaged in different active motions and having different preferences and sizes.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2018Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: A-dec, Inc.Inventors: Jason Alvarez, Jonathan Wilson, Rebekah Slyter, Kohler Johnson, Charles Stark, Brian E.
