Patent number: 9820387Abstract: A process for printing a metal wire pattern on a substrate, including: printing a first salt solution including a metal ion that will undergo a reduction half-reaction; printing a second salt solution containing an oxidizing agent that will undergo an oxidation half-reaction in contact with the first salt solution, resulting in the reduction of the metal ions of the first salt solution; and allowing the first and second salt solutions to react by a galvanic reaction, causing reduced metal ions of the first salt solution to precipitate as a solid, on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2016Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Naveen Chopra, Peter M.

Patent number: 9584551Abstract: A system that releases a Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) user from a serving function on an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (“IMS”) network receives a REGISTER refresh from a registered user equipment (“UE”). In response to the REGISTER refresh, the system sends a server assignment request to a home subscriber server (“HSS”) that clears the name of the Serving Call Session Control Function (“S-CSCF”) assigned for the registered user. The system then sends a gateway timeout or server timeout that would trigger the UE to send an initial REGISTER request.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2014Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Sreenivas Chiduruppa, Ranjani Chandrasekar, Paul F.

Publication number: 20150145920Abstract: An indirect printing process for printing a gel ink. The process comprises providing a gel ink composition in an inkjet printing apparatus. Droplets of gel ink are ejected in an imagewise pattern onto an intermediate transfer member wherein each ink droplet forms a substantially circular image on the transfer member. The ink droplets are gelled and dried or solidified to form a substantially dry ink pattern on the intermediate transfer member. The substantially dry ink pattern is transferred from the intermediate transfer member to a final substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2013Publication date: May 28, 2015Applicant: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Marcel Philippe Breton, Jennifer L. Belelie, Adela Goredema, Paul F. Smith
