US Patent:
6535295, Mar 18, 2003
Filed:
Aug 24, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/139043
Inventors:
Craig Duray Brossman - Boulder CO
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO
Nenad Rijavec - Longmont CO
Mark Andrew Stephens - Westminster CO
Raymond Glenn Wardell - Boulder CO
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
G06F 312
US Classification:
358 115, 710 8
Abstract:
A flexible and extensible virtual printer architecture is provided. According to one aspect of the present invention final status associated with a presentation job (e. g. , a fax job or a print job) is made available to an output server. One or more host processing threads or processes are spawned for each new presentation job received by the output server. Then, the presentation job is submitted to a presentation device for which the presentation job is destined by way of an instance of a wrapper process that is capable of communicating bi-directionally with the presentation device. After submitting the presentation job, a host job status thread or process waits for status pertaining to the presentation job. Ultimately, a final status associated with the presentation job is received by the wrapper process and the wrapper process reports the final status to the host job status thread or process. According to another aspect of the present invention, job and device status may be reported asynchronously.

View page
US Patent:
6538773, Mar 25, 2003
Filed:
Mar 26, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/282024
Inventors:
Craig Duray Brossman - Boulder CO
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO
Nenad Rijavec - Longmont CO
Mikel J. Stanich - Longmont CO
Mark Andrew Stephens - Westminster CO
Raymond Glenn Wardell - Boulder CO
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NJ
International Classification:
H04N 146
US Classification:
358 316, 358 113
Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture, for transmitting data to facsimile presentation device is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of receiving a presentation job comprising input data associable with at least one input grayscale value, retrieving one of a plurality of stored transforms, each transform for modifying grayscale commands to control a grayscale rendering characteristic of a presentation device associated with the transform, applying the transform to the input grayscale value to produce calibrated grayscale values, and transmitting data representing the calibrated grayscale value to the facsimile presentation device. In one embodiment of the present invention, the step of transmitting the rasterized input data to the presentation device comprises the steps of reducing the rasterized input data to an intermediate format being one of a number of widely supported formats, generating device-specific data and device-specific control information for the presentation device based on the intermediate format and control information associated with the input data, and transmitting the device-specific data and the device-specific control information to the presentation device. This invention can be practiced in several embodiments, and permits the user to select the transform according to the presentation device and/or a selected presentation quality.

US Patent:
6542252, Apr 1, 2003
Filed:
Jun 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/880979
Inventors:
Craig Duray Brossman - Boulder CO
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO
Nenad Rijavec - Longmont CO
Mark Andrew Stephens - Westminster CO
Raymond Glenn Wardell - Boulder CO
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
G06F 1300
US Classification:
358 113, 358 115
Abstract:
A flexible and extensible virtual printer architecture is provided. According to one embodiment, a mechanism is provided for driving multiple heterogeneous presentation devices. A presentation job is received on behalf of a presentation device, the presentation job includes a data stream which contains source data in the form of text, image, graphics, and/or other embedded objects. The source data is then reduced to an intermediate format. Based upon the intermediate format and control information associated with the data stream, device-specific data and device-specific control information are generated for the presentation device. Finally, the presentation device is driven by providing the device-specific data and device-specific control information to the presentation device.

Deborah Elizabeth Neuhard - Longmont CO, US
Jeanine Reeves - Lafayette CO, US
Nenad Rijavec - Longmont CO, US
Mikel John Stanich - Longmont CO, US
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:

Patches are printed using a screening algorithm and incorporating at least one output appearance factor. A calibration file is generated from measured color values of the printed patches mapping a color space for the printed patches to a color space of a printer used to print the patches. Information is associated with the calibration file indicating the printer and at least one output appearance attribute for use in selecting one calibration file to use when printing a print job.

Reducing Errors In Performance Sensitive Transformations

View page
US Patent:
7421139, Sep 2, 2008
Filed:
Oct 7, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/960253
Inventors:
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO, US
Nenad Rijavec - Longmont CO, US
Joan LaVerne Mitchell - Longmont CO, US
Assignee:
Infoprint Solutions Company, LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
G06K 9/46
US Classification:
382248, 382276, 382280, 382281
Abstract:
The invention provides a method, data compression system, apparatus, and article of manufacture which reduce the error in transform equations in which constants are replaced by approximations. According to the invention transform constants are replaced with approximations which are a function of an integer and a floating point value. The transform equation is then performed with the integers in place of the constants. The floating point value may be applied either to the result of the equation or to the data to be processed by the transform equation before the equation is performed. Further the floating point value may be applied using a fixed precision version of the value or a fixed precision value into which the floating point value has been factored.

Approximations Used In Performance Sensitive Transformations Which Contain Sub-Transforms

View page
US Patent:
7430332, Sep 30, 2008
Filed:
Jan 24, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/041563
Inventors:
Joan LaVerne Mitchell - Longmont CO, US
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO, US
Assignee:
Infoprint Solutions Company, LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
G06K 9/46
US Classification:
382248, 382232, 382250
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture for performing a transform equation in which at least two sub-transform equations can be identified. According to the invention, each sub-transform is considered separately and the constants of each sub-transform are replaced with an approximation which is a function of an integer value and a second value, where the second value is common to each constant in a sub-transform. The transform equation is then performed with the integer values in place of the constants. As a result either the input to the transform equation or at least one of the result of the transform and a value to be compared the result, is modified with a value which is a function of the second values for each sub-transform. By considering each sub-transform separately the second values of each sub-transform can be different thus allowing more accurate approximations to be used with minimal degradation in performance.

Compensating For Errors In Performance Sensitive Transformations

US Patent:
7489826, Feb 10, 2009
Filed:
Oct 7, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/960255
Inventors:
Arianne Therese Hinds - Boulder CO, US
Joan LaVerne Mitchell - Longmont CO, US
Assignee:
Infoprint Solutions Company, LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
G06K 9/46
US Classification:
382248, 382276, 382280, 382281
Abstract:
The invention provides a method, a data analyzing system, an apparatus, and article of manufacture which reduce the error in transform equations in which constants are replaced by approximations. This is achieved by factoring an adjustment factor into the calculations which serves to reduce the error introduced by the approximations. For a forward transform equation this may be performed as part of a quantization step and for an inverse transform equation this may be performed as part of a de-quantization step. For example the adjustment factor could reduce the maximum error associated the approximations.
