A protective liner includes a body formed from disposable and porous material and has planar top and bottom surfaces respectively. Such a body is removably positioned within an existing refrigerator drawer such that the body covers an entire bottom surface of the existing refrigerator drawer. The body has an outer layer provided with a uniform thickness extending along the top and bottom surfaces respectively. Such an outer layer is formed from paper material and the core member is formed from cotton. The body further has a unitary core member intercalated between the outer layer and is statically nested therebetween. Such a core member is formed from water-absorbent material for soaking up and trapping moisture from the foodstuff.

Disposable absorbent liner for use with refrigerator drawers and associated method

The method and apparatus of the present invention increases the color fidelity and precision for controlling a plurality of cartridges that emit an extremely wide variety of colored ink droplets from twelve (12) high resolution ink jet print cartridges, or pens, onto unique printing substrates during print operations in a large format digital print engine. The present invention provides an automated method of creating customized, ink and media-dependent color transforms to enable optimized printing operations. In the preferred embodiment, a charge coupled device (CCD) illuminated by an array of carefully chosen light emitting diodes (LED) is used to generate color coordinates of each of a plurality of colored patches printed on a printing substrate. The LED array provides a source of illumination upon a portion of a printed substrate within the field of view of a CCD/lens assembly that covers approximately the 400 to 700 nanometer wavelength of light (the &ldquo;visible spectrum&rdquo;). The LED array is used as a color sensor useful for revealing chromatic coordinates of inks in the print heads of the print engine, of printed patches that combine inks, and the maximum percent ink coverage of the media; thereby allowing the automatic creation of ink and media-dependent color transforms for the ink and media then-present on the print engine.
