Practical Adaptation Of Ithreshold For Supplies Optimization At Mps Business (Istatic Algorithm), Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

In Managed Print Services (MPS) service delivery space, in order to make sure an uninterrupted printing experience for the customer, it is very important to deliver the supplies (consumables) on time. While delivering supplies on time is an important goal from a customer satisfaction perspective, but it has been observed that (many a time) for achieving this, the supplies delivery is made too early, which leads to early swap (of the supplies) in the printers. The ink left in the previous toner/supply (a.k.a. residue), results in the wastage of supplies


Method To Monitor And Control The Density Of Magnetic Inks For Security Printing Applications, Hp Inc Feb 2023

Method To Monitor And Control The Density Of Magnetic Inks For Security Printing Applications, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

In typical printing applications, ink density control is performed using the optical density of the ink in the ink tank. When printing with magnetic inks for security features, such as account and routing information on checks, it is more important to control the ink “magnetic density” so that the resulting printed features have consistent magnetic properties. It has also been found that the typical magnetic ink density required to print in a single impression is far beyond the allowed range of typical optical density sensors. This paper discusses a new method of sensing the magnetic density of LEP inks in …
