  • Method and apparatus for implementing statistical process control (SPC) in a printing environment
    Patent number: 7545531
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for implementing statistical process control (SPC) in a printing environment to address errant reads of control sensors is provided. The system uses SPC, in systems having feedback control based on control sensor data, to identify errant reads and ensure that such errant reads are not used in the applicable feedback loop. Unnecessary reaction to the errant reads is thus avoided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 18, 2004
    Date of Patent: June 9, 2009
    Assignee: Xerox Corporation
