  • Patent number: 10031706
    Abstract: A method performed by a print service provider (PSP) for printing, including: (a) obtaining from a network a print job issued by a user mobile device and specifying a printer feature; (b) obtaining a location of the user mobile device; (c) determining a first printer having the printer feature and located within a predetermined distance of the location of the user mobile device; (d) sending a notification identifying the first printer to the user mobile device; (e) checking if a confirmation for the first printer issued by the user mobile device is obtained; (f) if the confirmation is not obtained in the step (e), repeating the steps (b) through (e); and (g) if the confirmation is obtained in the step (e), sending the print job to the first printer, where the first printer generates a hardcopy document from the print job using printer requirement.

  • Patent number: 9778889
    Abstract: A method performed by a print service provider (PSP) for printing, including: (a) obtaining from a network a print job issued by a mobile device and specifying a printer feature; (b) obtaining a first location on a planned route of a user of the mobile device; (c) determining a first printer having the printer feature and located within a predetermined distance of the first location; (d) sending a notification identifying the first printer to the mobile device; (e) determining if a deviation from the planned route exists; (f) if the deviation exists, repeating the steps (b) through (e) for a revised route; and (g) if the deviation does not exist: receiving a confirmation for the first printer; and sending the print job to the first printer in response to the confirmation. The first printer generates a hardcopy document from the print job using the printer feature.

  • Publication number: 20090086272
    Abstract: Systems in accordance with the presently claimed invention use parameters to choose the correct output file for translating the color values in a print job into device specific values in an output data file that may be used for printing. A data structure, such as a linked list of parameters, may be used to identify the correct output file to be used by the printer to form the correct device specific data file. The color values for each pixel in the device specific data file may allow a printed document to exhibit high color quality.

  • Publication number: 20080025053
    Abstract: A power supply system with transient suppression includes an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A power conditioning circuit is coupled to the UPS for conditioning power supplied by a power source at a nominal frequency over line, neutral, and ground conductors, respectively. The power conditioning circuit includes first, second, and third inductors coupled in series between the line, neutral, and ground conductors, respectively, and the first, second, and third power conditioning circuit output lines, respectively. All of the power supplied by the power source to the first, second, and third output lines flows through the first, second, and third inductors. Each of the inductors blocks power at frequencies greater than the nominal frequency from reaching the first, second, and third output lines.
