Latest Patents
Among his latest patents is an innovative image forming apparatus designed to set parameters corresponding to the driver version of a host device. This printing system includes an image forming apparatus and a host device. The image forming apparatus features a printing part that performs printing operations, a receiver that obtains parameters on the drive condition from the host device, a storage part for storing parameters for each driver version, and a controller that updates the stored parameters based on the received information. This advancement aims to improve printing output quality and enhance user satisfaction by allowing for user-defined color outputs.
Another significant patent involves a method and apparatus for storing information on the amount of toner used in an image forming device. This method determines whether a customer replaceable unit monitor (CRUM) memory is included in the cartridge. If the CRUM memory is absent, the information is stored in the non-volatile memory of the image forming device. Conversely, if the CRUM memory is present, the information is stored within it. This innovation helps in tracking toner usage effectively.
