Abstract: An image-based prediction service of a provider network may receive multivariate time series data (e.g., from different sensors for a machine) from a remote network of the client. The multivariate time series data includes different time series of data that are obtained from different data sources (e.g., sensors) over a time period. The image-based prediction service may transform the multivariate time series data into image data that represents an image. The image-based prediction service may then process the image data using one or more image processing models to generate a prediction (e.g., machine failure within a week). The image-based prediction service may send the prediction to the remote network.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to nucleic acids encoding polypeptides that confer upon a plant tolerance to an imidazolinone and/or other acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) inhibiting herbicide when expressed in the plant. The present invention also provides plants having increased tolerance to an imidazolinone and/or other AHAS-inhibiting herbicide. More particularly, the present invention includes plants containing at least one IMI nucleic acid. The present invention also includes seeds produced by these plants and methods of controlling weeds in the vicinity of these wheat plants.

Abstract: According to an aspect, the present invention is directed to a method for applying a label to a substrate. The method includes applying an ink layer to a transfer mechanism; applying a binding layer to the ink layer; and contacting the binding layer to the substrate such that the binding layer and the ink layer are substantially removed from the transfer mechanism.

Abstract: A source document guide apparatus prevents curling of a source document as the document is fed through a document reproduction machine. The source document guide includes a flat member having a surface and leading and trailing end portions, and at least one fastener at the leading end portion configured to attach the flat member to the document reproduction machine.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for improved operation and troubleshooting of a printing device. A printing device includes a master module wherein printing device operation data can be stored in non-volatile memory. The master module is provided with non-volatile memory or an uninterruptible power source so that the master module memory may be retained and dumped upon request. The memory dump may transmit the memory contents to a local external device through a port, such as an infrared port or a USB (Universal Serial Bus) port, or the memory contents may be transmitted to a remote location. The dumped data may then be analyzed to quickly identify a problem component in the printing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for remote testing of printing devices. A printing device includes a browser that is configured to establish a remote connection with a network site maintained by a manufacturer of the printing device. Once a connection is established, the printing device requests that a test be performed. A test program at the manufacturer site downloads a print test in the native language of the printing device. If the print test fails, more complete diagnostics are run. A printing device user is informed of the result. A user can determine if the printing device is operational without first installing a software driver or making connections to a host. Operational problems are, therefore, more easily isolated and resolved.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present invention, an ink-jet ink can comprise a dye and a liquid vehicle carrying the dye. The liquid vehicle can include a sulfonated aromatic compound present in the ink-jet ink at an effective concentration to cause improvement of ozone fastness of said ink-jet ink.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present invention, an ink-jet ink can comprise a metallized phthalocyanine dye and a liquid vehicle carrying the dye. The liquid vehicle can include an amine additive present in the ink-jet ink at an effective concentration to cause improvement of ozone fastness. The improvement can be determined by comparing the ozone fastness of the ink-jet ink with a control ink-jet ink that does not include the amine additive.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present invention, an ink-jet ink can comprise a liquid vehicle including a halophenol and a metallized dye. Alternatively, a system for printing images with improved ozone fastness can comprise a printing medium including an ink-receiving layer coated thereon, wherein the ink-receiving layer includes semi-metal oxide or metal oxide particulates, and an ink-jet ink configured for printing on printing medium. The ink-jet ink can comprise a liquid vehicle including a protonated phenol devoid of water solubilizing moieties, and a metallized dye.

Abstract: An electrostatically stabilized ink includes a dispersion which is electrostatically stabilized and comprises a pigment. The ink also includes an ionic amphiphile additive which has a charge center having an opposite charge from a charge center of the dispersion.

Abstract: A dye-based ink includes a dye and a solvent. The dye-based ink has a high print quality on plain paper. The dye-based ink may have a print quality similar to pigment-based inks. This may be particularly relevant for black inks.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to a media sheet, comprising a substrate and a porous ink-receiving layer deposited on the substrate. The porous ink-receiving layer can comprise inorganic metal or semi-metal oxide particulates bound by a polymeric binder, and the porous ink-receiving layer can further include an effective amount of a sulfur-containing compound that interacts with ozone upon exposure thereto.

Abstract: Anti-bronzing agents are added to ink-jet inks to prevent bronzing of the inks when printed on various types of photographic media. The additive can include one or more anti-bronzing agents comprising certain planar aliphatic or planar aromatic ring structures. The planar ring-containing anti-bronzing agent can be present in an effective concentration to reduce bronzing of the ink-jet ink printed on the ink-receiving layer.

Abstract: A print medium having increased resistance to gasfade. An inhibitor comprising a sulfur-containing polymer is incorporated into the print medium. The sulfur-containing polymer is poly(1,4-phenylene sulfide) or poly(1,3-phenylene sulfide). The inhibitor is present in at least a surface of the print medium and may be present in the print medium in a concentration from approximately 0.25% by weight per cm2 of the print medium to approximately 30% by weight per cm2 of the print medium. A method of forming the print medium is disclosed as is a method of producing a printed image having increased resistance to gasfade.
