US Patent:

6477443, Nov 5, 2002
Filed:

Mar 29, 2000
Appl. No.:

09/538392
Inventors:

David L. Salgado - Victor NY
John W. Daughton - Rochester NY
Jeffrey Gramowski - Webster NY
Thomas G. Lindsay - Penfield NY
Michael W. Barrett - Fairport NY
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

G06F 700
US Classification:

700220, 700213, 705400
Abstract:

A method for enabling a printing machine having a customer billing interface to bill the customer for marking jobs having different sheet sizes includes programming different rates for different size sheets into the printing machine. With receipt of a machine enable signal from the customer billing interface, a sheet is fed and the printing machine determines the sheet size. After the printing machine performs a marking operation, the printing machine emits a signal for each sheet marked to the customer billing interface.

US Patent:

6885478, Apr 26, 2005
Filed:

Nov 23, 1999
Appl. No.:

09/448005
Inventors:

David L. Salgado - Victor NY, US
John W. Daughton - Rochester NY, US
Susan M. Healy - Webster NY, US
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

H04N001/40
US Classification:

358449, 358434, 358494, 358451
Abstract:

A method for transferring an image disposed on a medium with an image transfer device. The method comprises the steps of providing the image transfer device with a controller and a reader, reading the image on the medium with the reader, and forming with the controller a modified image from the image on the medium. The reader is operably connected to the controller for reading the image on the medium. The controller forms the modified image from the image on the medium in response to registering with the controller that the image on the medium is larger than a predetermined size. The modified image formed with the controller is smaller than the predetermined size.

US Patent:

50499297, Sep 17, 1991
Filed:

Dec 5, 1989
Appl. No.:

7/446517
Inventors:

Karen K. Anderson - Rochester NY
John W. Daughton - Rochester NY
Robert L. Sklut - Rochester NY
Keith G. Bunker - Rochester NY
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

G03G 1500
US Classification:

355204
Abstract:

A reproduction system which includes inter alia a user interface providing a means for programming a plurality of features associated with the execution of a copying job. The system includes a means for comparing the most recently selected feature with all previously programmed features in order to identify any mutually exclusive or undesirable feature pairs. Finally, the system also contains one or possibly multiple priority establishing methods or schemes for use in automatically resolving conflicting feature selections.

Copy Reproduction Machine With Controller Self Check System
view source
US Patent:

42662940, May 5, 1981
Filed:

Apr 9, 1979
Appl. No.:

6/028480
Inventors:

John W. Daughton - Fairport NY
Stephen P. Wilczek - Fairport NY
Edward L. Steiner - Macedon NY
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

G06F 1100
G01R 3128
US Classification:

371 24
Abstract:

An electrostatographic type copying or reproduction machine incorporating a programmable controller to operate the various machine components in an integrated manner to produce copies is disclosed. The controller carries a master program bearing machine operating parameters from which an operating program for the specific copy run desired is formed and used to operate the machine components to produce the copies programmed. A multiple prioritized interrupt system is employed to distribute the operating program to the machine. Self check routines check the operational integrity of the controller prior to start-up of the machine and periodically while the machine is processing copies.

US Patent:

58235299, Oct 20, 1998
Filed:

Jan 11, 1996
Appl. No.:

8/585027
Inventors:

Barry P. Mandel - Fairport NY
John W. Daughton - Rochester NY
Charles D. Rizzolo - Rochester NY
John D. Hower - Fairport NY
Don S. Walker - Rochester NY
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

B65H 3910
US Classification:

271296
Abstract:

In a sheet stacking system with an array of plural sheet stacking bins with sheet entrances for stacking plural flimsy print substrate sheets from a printed sheets output path into selected bins, with a sheet feeding input path system for feeding selected sheets into a selected bin to be stacked therein, with a bin fullness indicator system for indicating that the estimated height of the stack has reached a preset allowable maximum, and a stacking control system controlled by the bin fullness indicator system to control the sheet feeding input path; there is a single stack height sensing system including a stack height sensor for respective measurements of the actual stack height of the stack of sheets in respective bins for the bin fullness indicator system, a movable carriage system for moving this single stack height sensing system from adjacent to one bin to adjacent another bin for respective measurements, the stack height sensor including a movable sensing element extendable by an intermittent actuator into the bin then adjacent to the movable carriage system to detect the stack height therein. A signal generator is responsive to the sensing element position to provide control signals to the stacking control system.

US Patent:

41707915, Oct 9, 1979
Filed:

Aug 30, 1977
Appl. No.:

5/829012
Inventors:

John W. Daughton - Fairport NY
Kenneth Gillett - Redondo Beach CA
Frank Nelson - Sherman Oaks CA
Stephen P. Wilczek - Rochester NY
Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT
International Classification:

G03G 1500
G06F 300
G06F 1520
US Classification:

364900
Abstract:

A data communication system for an electrophotographic type reproduction machine or copier having a master unit, an interface, and one or more remote units. The master unit includes a programmable controller having a data processor, memory storage for storing programs and command and data bytes, and address and data buses. The interface is connected to the master unit via the address and data buses, and includes a memory connected to the data bus for temporarily storing command and output data bytes from the master unit pending transmittal thereof to the remote units and for storing input data bytes from the remote units pending transfer thereof to the master unit. A first communication path, along which command and data bytes from the interface memory are transmitted to the remote units, couples the interface with the remote units. A second communication path, along which input data bytes from the remote units to the interface memory are transmitted, couples the remote units with the interface.
