  • Patent number: 7891759
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a system and method for cleaning inkjet cartridges. The system includes a fixture configured to mount an inkjet cartridge where a printhead of the inkjet cartridge is mounted to a cleaning plate. The cleaning plate includes one or more orifices connected to a vacuum source and one or more orifices connected to a wash solution source. The vacuum source can be used to extract ink from within the cartridge through nozzles in the printhead. The wash solution source can supply a pressurized wash solution through the nozzles of the printhead. The vacuum source can also be use to extract the wash solution from within the cartridge through the nozzles.

  • Patent number: 7730107
    Abstract: A service registry that supports updating and sharing of profile data with partners. The registry allows organizations such as libraries and consortia to manage and share data that define their organizations (e.g., institution type, location, main and branch institutions, URLs for electronic services, circulation statistics, and population served). Organizations share a RSS-enabled obfuscated link with their partners that enables the partners to access a page with the latest institutional profile, and to be notified when it is updated. The obfuscation of the RSS feed provides a notification while keeping the data private. Every time a user creates an institutional profile, an equivalent RSS-enabled page is generated that can be reached through a RSS feed that has an obfuscated link name. The user shares this link with the institution's partners and others that have a need to know the information and to access details about the institution and its services.

  • Patent number: 7540597
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a method of refilling an inkjet printer cartridge. The method includes providing an inkjet printer cartridge and lowering the pressure surrounding the cartridge below atmospheric level. A first volume of ink is directed into the cartridge at the reduced pressure. The method further includes at least partially raising the pressure surrounding the cartridge and subsequently at least partially lowering the pressure surrounding the cartridge. A second volume of ink is then directed into the cartridge at the second reduced pressure.
