Abstract: A system for registration of one or more color separation images on a photoconductor belt prevents misregistration that otherwise can occur between different scan lines and between different latent images due to side-to-side movement of the photoconductor belt. The registration system operates to detect movement of the photoconductor belt (12). Based on the detected movement, the system operates to control modulation of laser beams (46) used to form the latent images to ensure precise registration of the color separation images. As one advantage, the movement of the photoconductor belt can be detected precisely and inexpensively by a photodetector (92) scanned with the same laser beam used for imaging, the photodetector being disposed adjacent the edge (62) of the photoconductor belt.

Abstract: A system for registration of color separation images on a photoconductor belt (12) in an imaging system operates to detect (76) a position of an edge of the photoconductor belt (12). The registration system detects the position with the same laser scanner used for forming latent images on the photoconductor belt. The registration system includes a belt steering control (103) system that steers the photoconductor belt (12) based on the detected position to reduce deviation of the belt from a continuous transport path. The registration system also may include a scan control system (88) that, based on the detected position, controls the modulation of laser beams scanned to form latent images on the photoconductor belt (12). By controlling belt steering (103) and laser beam scanning (88), the registration system maintains the image quality of a final multi-color image upon transfer of registered color separation images to an output substrate.

Abstract: Various structures are described to minimize tape edge creasing in a tape cartridge. Several structures prevent the flange from being pressed by the housing of the tape cartridge into the tape pack with sufficient force to crease the edges of any exposed tape strands. Use of various structures or alternative materials also can stiffen the flange, again reducing the likelihood of the flange deflecting into the tape pack.

Abstract: A cooling article (10) includes a plate (20) positioned adjacent the exit of a thermal processor. The plate (20) has a surface for receiving a sheet of thermally-processed material such that the sheet of thermally-processed material moves along the surface. A first region (30) of the surface of the plate adjacent the exit of the thermal processor includes a thermally insulative material, whereas a second region (32) of the surface of the plate on a side of the first region opposite the exit of the thermal processor includes a thermally conductive material. The sheet of thermally-processed material contacts the thermally insulative material during movement in the first region, and contacts the thermally conductive material during movement in the second region. The thermally insulative material prevents excessive heating of the first region of the cooling plate by leading portions of the sheet of thermally-processed material. The thermally insulative material thereby reduces defects in the trailing portion of the sheet of thermally-processed material due to uneven cooling. The reduction of defects contributes to improved quality in the images produced on sheets of thermally-processed material.

Abstract: A squeegee apparatus and method for removing excess developer liquid from an imaging substrate in a liquid electrographic imaging system make use of a squeegee roller having a core with a crowned profile. With determination of a proper loading force, the squeegee apparatus and method achieve substantially uniform loading force along the length of the squeegee roller, and thus along the width of a nip formed along the imaging region of the imaging substrate. As a result, the squeegee apparatus and method provide substantially uniform removal of developer liquid from the imaging substrate, enhancing quality of an ultimate printed image.
