  • Publication number: 20230043405
    Abstract: In an example of the disclosure, a web media is advanced through a printer during a printing operation, Tractor-feed holes in a tractor-feed lane of the web media are detected utilizing a sensor and counted as the web media advances. When the count of tractor-feed holes reaches a target tractor-feed hole n, a fiducial detection period is started wherein a sensor is utilized to detect a fiducial. A printing adjustment is determined based upon a time or time period that the fiducial is detected during the fiducial detection period.

  • Patent number: 10440230
    Abstract: According to examples, multi-color printing may include generating, based on an analysis of a print job image, a plurality of contone planes that represent the print job image. Multi-color printing may further include generating, based on an analysis of two or more sets of the contone planes determined from the plurality of contone planes, two or more corresponding sets of halftone planes and a fixer plane for each set of the halftone planes. Multi-color printing may further include generating, based on an analysis of the fixer plane for each set of the halftone planes, a combined fixer plane, and generating, based on an analysis of the two or more corresponding sets of halftone planes and the combined fixer plane, print data to print the print job image.
