Abstract
A system and method include a printing system with printing modules through which print media is transferred. The printing modules include sensors and a fault detection component. A printing system includes a fault identification system (FIS) and a scheduler. The FIS includes, a machine learning component, a Dependency-matrix component and an optimal search component. The optimal search component repeatedly implements a Rate of Return (ROR) that links the probabilities of occurrences of faults to a priori probabilities of faults and a detection function of the ROR to elements of the D-matrix, determines a ROR value, provides a benefit, and sends one more test to a scheduler of the printing system, which then physically implements the one more test. The prior steps are repeated until a stopping condition is reached and a fault is diagnosed.
