  • Method and device for controlling an electrographic printer or copier
    Patent number: 7835684
    Abstract: In a method for control of an electrophotographic printer or copier, information that refer to a single sheet are determined from print data supplied to the printer or copier. Dependent on said information, a transport path of the single sheet through the printer or copier to generate at least one print image on at least one side of the sheet is determined. A system time of the printer or copier is provided that is the same for at least first and second control units of the printer or copier. At least one desired point in time at or until which at least one sensor signal is expected or at least one actuator is activated is established dependent on the transport path, the desired point in time referring to the system time of the printer or copier.

  • Method and device for transmitting messages over a data network
    Patent number: 7370124
    Abstract: In a method and system for transmitting messages over a data network, the communication task is used which is implemented on a transmitting microcontroller which determines, on the basis of a routing table, which communication system is used to forward the message to which adjacent microcontroller. A dual-ported RAM is provided between two microcontrollers as one type of communication system.
