20140278702 | LAUNCH OPTIMIZATION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - The present invention relates to a software system implemented on a standalone computer or over a network for coordinating the implementation of large projects. The new system is intuitive, relies on an organizational method and set of highly descriptive templates for the various activities, a two-axis dimensional sorting of commercial dimensions and project phases, the use of sub-groups for dimensions, and the storage and retrieval of current documents related to each activity. The system is designed for a broad or narrow overview of a large project, its different commercial dimensions and phases over time in association with initiatives and activities. | 09-18-2014 |
20140278721 | GLOBAL OPTIMIZATION STRATEGY SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - The present invention relates to a software based system implemented on a standalone computer of over a network using computers for collecting global optimization related data, processing the country specific data, to objectively qualify, prioritize, and manage the information to formulate and implement a global optimization strategy for goods or services and the associated method of use therefore. The system operates by interfacing four modules with a database manager, a catalog (data storage and retrieval) module, an analytical (opportunity qualifier) module, a priority ranking module, and a reporting and mapping module. The software can be applied to geographically optimize existing or new products, product-lines, or services. For existing products or services the result may be to correct the priority generally obtained and ranked using non opportunity-based evaluations and rankings, or expand into additional countries. For new products or services, the results can be used to sequence country participation (order-of-entry, level of participation, etc.) for the company and/or partners. | 09-18-2014 |

Each two-color IOI drum module includes in a process order around a photoreceptor; a) a first charging unit; b) a first exposure unit; c) a first development unit; d) a second charging unit; e) a second exposure unit; and f) a second development unit, wherein the intermediate transfer unit receives a first toned image and a second toned image from the photoreceptor in a single transfer and transfers those toner images to print media to produce a toned image on print media. In various embodiments, specific color pairings are provided. | 12-09-2010 |
20130156484 | Automatic Media Loading and Unloading System for Producing Dimensional Documents - A media loading and unloading system, for use with a media cutting system having a cutting table and cutting apparatus to cut or score media held on a surface of the cutting table, includes an elevator assembly and a bi-directional transport system. The elevator assembly includes a drive and multiple vertically displaced bins that are vertically movable up and down by the drive. The bi-directional transport system transports media in a lateral feed direction from the elevator assembly to the cutting table surface and removes media from the cutting table surface in a lateral direction opposite to the feed direction to the elevator assembly. | 06-20-2013 |
20130207341 | MEDIA CURLING APPARATUS AND SYSTEMS INCLUDING TRI-ROLL MEDIA CURLER - A tri-roll curler apparatus includes an inlet roll, and exit roll, and a penetrating roll. The three rolls have substantially equal radii. At least one of the penetrating roll, and the inlet and exit rolls may be movable. Distances between the penetrating roll and the inlet roll, and the penetrating roll and the exit roll are substantially equal. | 08-15-2013 |
20130266358 | Media Feeding System for Cutting Dimensional Documents and Methods of Making and Using Same - A media feeding and cutting system is disclosed herein which comprises a media cutter including a cutting surface and a digital cutting device, a first feeder configured to automatically transport individual sheets of media from an in-feed receptacle toward the cutter, a positioner configured to position the medium on the cutting surface, a second feeder disposed adjacent to or connected to the cutting surface which is configured to automatically transport the cut medium from the cutter to an out-feed receptacle, and a processor configured to operate the cutter, first feeder, positioner and second feeder. Additional related systems and methods also are disclosed. | 10-10-2013 |
