    Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing medications comprises: a portable cassette 100 with a body portion (102, fig. 2) including a plurality of compartments (106, fig. 3) and at least one displaceable lid 104; a sensor (108, fig. 5) configured to detect when a lid is displaced; a memory (110) and a first processor (112) configured to store, in the memory, respective times for each detection of displacement of the lid. A method of dispensing medicines using this dispenser is also claimed. Also claimed is an apparatus for dispensing medications, comprising a portable cassette with a body portion and lid as above, as well as a pill-dispenser (202, fig. 7) including: at least one dispensing compartment (204) arranged to store pills; a dispensing element (208) configured to release the pills from the compartment; and a cassette element (210) arranged to receive the portable cassette and displace it so that at least one pill falls into each cassette compartment. After the pills fall into the compartments, the portable cassette is removable from the pill dispenser, and the lid is displaceable to control access to the cassette compartments. Further apparatus and methods are also claimed.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such a problem that media deformation created by a scoring pen is very small and does not sufficiently weaken or delaminate the media at fold lines so the folds are not crisp and straight.SOLUTION: An apparatus includes a sheet path, an elongated member 106 positioned on a first side of the sheet path, and a support 102 positioned on a second side of the sheet path opposite the elongated member. The support is positioned relative to the elongated member so that a sheet of print media passes along a processing plane between the elongated member and the support when the sheet of the printing media 104 travels in a processing direction along the media path. The processing plane is parallel to flat sides of the sheet of print media as the sheet of print media passes between the elongated member and the support. The support comprises a surface positioned parallel to the processing plane. The surface of the support has a recess 108 having a shape corresponding to the elongated member. The surface of the support rotates in the processing plane.
