Abstract: A computing device for scheduling maintenance services for an earthmoving machine is disclosed. The computing device includes an input device configured to receive work hour input associated with work operations of the earthmoving machine and a visual display on board the earthmoving machine. The computing device further includes a processor configured to execute instructions for receiving the work hour input from the input device and determining current work hours associated with a completed maintenance service of the earthmoving machine based on the work hour input. The processor is further configured to execute instructions for presenting a user of the earthmoving machine, via the visual display, with one or more service interval rationalization options based on the current work hours and scheduling one or more subsequent planned maintenance services based on the one or more service interval rationalization options.

Abstract: A method of assigning maintenance services for a fleet of machines is disclosed. The method may include storing a list of maintenance services for the fleet of machines in the electronic maintenance tracking database, and displaying, via a computing device, the list of maintenance services for the fleet of machines. The method may further include displaying an option to assign a maintenance service for a machine. The method may further include receiving input from an administrator, via the computing device, to assign the maintenance service, and prompting the administrator to select a technician to perform the maintenance service. The method may further include storing in the electronic maintenance tracking database data associated with the selected technician in connection with the maintenance service and the machine. The method may further include communicating data associated with the maintenance service and the machine to a portable computing device associated with the selected technician.

Abstract: A deposited ink drop imposition proofing print sheet that includes two deposited ink drop printable faces each having a periphery defined by an ordered series of first, second, third, and fourth edges. These two faces have properties resulting from a deposited ink drop print-enhancing treatment. The sheet defines two first registration openings. The first is located closer to the first sheet edge than to the third sheet edge and closer to the second sheet edge than to the fourth sheet edge. The second is located closer to the first sheet edge than to the third sheet edge and closer to the fourth sheet edge than to the second sheet edge. In one embodiment, an inner edge of the first registration opening is nominally separated from an inner edge of the second registration opening by at least 36 inches.

Abstract: An imposition printer and associated method. The printer can disengage its rollers from a print substrate feed path, deploy a pair of registration stops, and align a print substrate by engaging the print substrate with the stops. The rollers can then engage the substrate in an aligned position, and the registration stops can be retracted. After they are engaged, the same rollers can advance the substrate as a deposited ink drop print head deposits ink on it.
