| 20090035040 | Image forming apparatus - An image forming apparatus includes a circulating transfer path for transferring a sheet. The image forming apparatus is capable of forming images on both surfaces of the sheet by: transferring the sheet having an image formed on a first surface thereof along the circulating transfer path; and forming another image on a second surface of the sheet after the transfer. The circulating transfer path is utilized for securing time taken for the sheet having an image formed thereon to dry. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090039588 | PAPER FEED SYSTEM - In a paper feed system where a first paper feed mechanism takes out and transfers one by one a plurality of papers placed on a paper feed table in a stack and a second paper feed mechanism transfers the papers transferred by the first paper feed mechanism to an image forming section at a predetermined timing. A paper edge detector is provided between the first and second paper feed mechanisms to detect an edge of the paper, and the first paper feed mechanism is controlled to transfer the papers at a first speed and then at a second speed not higher than the first speed when the paper edge detector detects the leading edge of the paper, the second speed being determined on the basis of the timing at which the leading edge of the paper is detected. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20100237557 | Printing machine and feeding method for printing machines - Configuration with paired register rollers cooperative with a downstream head unit on a circulation route to register a print sheet, a feed route extending up to the register rollers, and feeder elements controllable for a downstream feed of print sheet along part of the feed route to the register rollers, the feeder elements being controllable for a change of feed speed or acceleration in accordance with information on a back tension of a print sheet on the circulation route. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100290064 | PRINTING MACHINE AND EJECTION CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME - Disclosed is a printing machine comprising: encoders ( | 11-18-2010 |
| 20100315451 | INKJET IMAGE FORMER - A controller works with a measure of temperature of ink at a temperature sensor within a first temperature range to have an inkjet head propel out droplets of ink at a first discharge speed for formation of images, and with a measure of temperature of ink at the temperature sensor within a second temperature range lower than the first temperature range to have the inkjet head propel out droplets of ink at a second discharge speed greater than the first discharge speed for formation of images, and the controller determines that end regions of a frame of images to be formed in regions at transfer-longitudinal ends of a sheet to be transferred in a sheet transfer system have a print ratio within a prescribed range, to execute formation of images. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110048263 | SHEET TRANSFER SYSTEM AND DUPLEX PRINTER USING SAME - A sheet transfer system includes a register roller working for transfer of a one-side printed print sheet and a non-printed print sheet, a pair of first guide plates working to guide the one-side printed print sheet to the register, and a pair of second guide plates working to guide the non-printed print sheet to the register. The first guide plates make an opening angle θ | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110260389 | PAPER FEED SYSTEM - In a paper feed system where a first paper feed mechanism takes out and transfers one by one a plurality of papers placed on a paper feed table in a stack and a second paper feed mechanism transfers the papers transferred by the first paper feed mechanism to an image forming section at a predetermined timing. A paper edge detector is provided between the first and second paper feed mechanisms to detect an edge of the paper, and the first paper feed mechanism is controlled to transfer the papers at a first speed and then at a second speed not higher than the first speed when the paper edge detector detects the leading edge of the paper, the second speed being determined on the basis of the timing at which the leading edge of the paper is detected. | 10-27-2011 |
