International Classification:

G03G 15/00

US Classification:

399381, 399388

Abstract:

Disclosed are embodiments of a modular printing system with one or more modules having one or more bypass paths and comprise a modular printing system with a module (e. g. , a stacker or feeder module) having a main compartment and at least one additional compartment. Contained within the main compartment is a main sheet transport path and a functional component (e. g. , a sheet stacking device or a sheet feeding device) connected to the main sheet transport path. Contained with the additional compartment is a bypass path. The bypass path allows sheets to be routed through the module in the event of a print media sheet jam in the main sheet transport path. Because the bypass path is contained within a separate compartment, the jam can be cleared from the main compartment without cycling down the printing system, thereby allowing for continued productivity.

US Classification:

399394, 399162, 399306

Abstract:

International Classification:

B25G 3/00

US Classification:

403383

Abstract:

A driven coupling includes three separate cam lobes projecting therefrom that mate with mating female features in a driver coupling. A central straight or tapered bore accepts a conical alignment pin that projects from the driver coupling. Since the cam lobes are independent and are able to radically deflect, under torque load the central bore is closed down to create a highly precise alignment.

International Classification:

B41J 29/38

US Classification:

347 5

Abstract:

A method and system for digital printing with plural marking engines in which a controller determines which of the marking engines has first completed its initialization/warm-up cycle and begins printing on that marking engine. As additional marking engines complete their initialization/warm-up cycle, additional concurrent printing is commenced on them.
