  • Patent number: 6618169
    Abstract: Print data adaptation means (67) include data conversion means (37) which are adapted to convert the received scan data (SD1) into printable print data (PD2) in accordance with first conversion information (CI1), which print data (PD2) can be printed by thermal printing means (44) set to a first print mode, and which conversion means (37) are adapted to convert received scan data (SD1) into printable print data (PD2) in accordance with second conversion information (CI2), which print data (PD2) can be printed by the thermal printing means (44) set to a second print mode, the printing row feed (RD1) of the thermal printing means (44) in the first print mode of the thermal printing means (44) corresponding substantially to the printing dot size (DP) and the printing row feed of the thermal printing means (44) in the second print mode of the thermal printing means (44) being smaller than the printing dot size (DP).

  • Patent number: 6078278
    Abstract: A system for holding a plurality of record carriers, which are each combined with an associated insert. The system includes an apparatus with a given number N of record-carrier holders to each of which a given code is assigned; and a control device having a unit for generating the code of a desired record-carrier holder to select that holder, and a unit for transmitting the generated code to the apparatus. The control device includes a set of flat insert carriers to which the same codes are assigned as to the record-carrier holder and which are each configured to hold at least one insert and to be movable relative to the adjacent insert carrier. The control device also includes an insert-carrier detection device configured to detect the code of an insert carrier relative to which the adjacent insert carrier has been moved and to transmit this code to the apparatus in order to select the desired record-carrier holder.
