Abstract: The disclosure describes a compressor housing for a turbocharger system. A scroll section of a collecting volute may be defined by a wall of the compressor housing. The scroll section may extend around the axis of the compressor from an inlet of the volute to a scroll discharge stage. A plate section of the compressor housing may extend from the wall in a radial direction outward from the axis and may extend in a circumferential direction around a substantial portion of the collecting volute. The plate section may be configured to shield heat and may advantageously be formed integral with the compressor housing.

Abstract: A printing method and system include identifying a reusable object in a print job. If the reusable object has been previously RiPped and cached, then the RiPped object is loaded for printing. If the reusable object has not been RiPped and cached, then the object is RiPped, cached and loaded for printing.

Abstract: A method for printing images. A plurality of proof sheets having a thumbnail representation of at least some of the images, and at least one user-markable field indicative of at least one corresponding image when marked are printed. User-marked ones of the proof sheets are optically scanned to detect marked ones of the at least one user-markable field. The marked fields are processed to determine at least one selected image associated with each scanned proof sheet. At least one selected image is printed after the user-marked proof sheets have been scanned.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for voice to image printing are provided. One method includes translating voice input into text on a printing device. The method also includes associating the text with an image. The method further includes editing the text on the printing device. In addition, the method includes printing the image with associated text.
