Abstract: Methods and systems for maintaining image quality are disclosed. A printing system and method is provided for maintaining image quality, comprising: initially establishing a plurality of image quality threshold standards; assigning an image quality threshold standard from the plurality of image quality threshold standards to an associated image job; comparing the assigned image quality threshold standard of each associated image job to a system check value; and, marking any image jobs having an assigned image quality threshold standard greater than the quality system check value.

Abstract: Methods and systems for maintaining image quality are disclosed. A printing system and method is provided for maintaining image quality, comprising: initially establishing a plurality of image quality threshold standards; assigning an image quality threshold standard from the plurality of image quality threshold standards to an associated image critical job; comparing the assigned image quality threshold standard of each associated image critical job to a quality system check value; and, releasing and printing selected image critical jobs if the quality system check value is at least equal to the assigned image quality threshold standard.

Abstract: A height-adjustable furnishing system includes a base component, a plurality of legs, a height adjustment mechanism, and a platform component. The base has a planar bottom surface and a top surface with a plurality of attachment points for pivotally attaching two, three or four legs. The height-adjustment mechanism is adjustably attached between the base component and at least one of the plurality of legs, or between a forward leg and a rear leg. A platform component is pivotally attached to the plurality of legs to form a parallelogram linkage when viewed from the side. The height-adjustment mechanism may include a gas spring, a cam clamp, a travel block, a release lever, a cable release, a release trigger and may also be hand- or foot-operated. The entire system folds to a generally planar configuration for storage. The legs are erect when they are approximately 10 degrees from vertical.

Abstract: Provided is a ticket for a game of chance. The ticket includes a strip having a first fold and a second fold. The first fold defines a first panel at an end of the strip. The second fold defines a second panel at another end of the strip. A third panel is located between the first panel and the second panel. A play combination is located on the third panel on a first side of the strip. Game identifying information is located on the first panel on a second side of the strip. The first panel is folded over the second panel to form an unopened position.

Abstract: A system and method for playing a lottery game based on a card game which may have both instant win aspects and lottery drawing aspects.
