Patent number: 11833840Abstract: Systems and methods for printing data on a substrate including a color-changeable material are provided. One system includes a processing circuit and a device including an energy source. At least a portion of a printed publication is printed on the substrate using a commercial printing press based on fixed data. The device including the energy source is configured to add variable data to the substrate. The processing circuit is configured to receive the variable data and to control the energy source to change a color of the color-changeable material based on the variable data to provide at least a portion of the printed publication. The processing circuit is configured to control the energy source to change the color of the color-changeable material in-line with a flow of the substrate through one of a printing line, a finishing line, or a packaging line of the commercial printing press.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2019Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Quad/Graphics, Inc.Inventors: John A. Barndt, Robert H. Barton, Jr., Terrill S. Clayton, Monte J. Rose, Paul G. Volz
