Apparatus for selectively color marking successive copies produced in a copy machine to provide color-coded copies for routing or other identification purposes.

The machine, which may be a facsimile machine, stands on the floor and includes a roll of paper which runs over a stylus assembly, by means of which a pattern of electrostatic charges are formed on the paper, after which the paper is cut and fed downwardly toward the lower end of the machine where it is treated with toner, which is then fused to provide a fixed visible message thereon. The printed document is driven generally upwardly by a roller assembly onto a generally vertically oriented doc...

A document processor having a keyboard, a displaying apparatus for displaying inputted characters and symbols on a display and a control device for controlling the displaying apparatus, there is provided an improvement that permits the moving of an inputted word separated at the right margin set position on the display to the start of the succeeding display line by wordlap control, such that the separated word is displayed distinguishably on the display, for example, by blinking, in order to dis...

In order to increase the protection against forgery of a security paper, a security inlay made of polymer material having piezoelectric and/or pyroelectric properties is embedded in the security paper. The presence of such an inlay can be tested by means of contacting and non-contacting measuring methods.

The present invention is drawn to an improved method of making a document file which has a pair of covers and a plurality of file elements laminated one upon another between the covers. The file elements are hot-sealed together and to the covers. The covers each have an auxiliary sheet hot-sealed to the cover body. The outermost file elements are hot-sealed to the auxiliary sheets of the covers. Thus, no dents or recesses are formed on the cover by hot-sealing the outermost file elements to the ...

An improved document file is proposed which has a pair of covers, a plurality of bag members laminated one upon another, and a plurality of reinforcing padding members mounted in pocket-like or sheaths spaces formed between the adjoining bag members. The padding members serve to eliminate any difficulty in opening the compartments formed by the bag members, due to limpness of the material of which the bag members are made.

Apparatus for conveying a sheet of paper from a power feeder to an exit point including a frame for guiding the moving sheet along a preselected path and including a flexible member between the feeder and the exit point for normally guiding the sheet along the preselected path, the flexible member allowing the sheet to buckle in a direction normal to the plane of and away from the preselected path in response to an obstruction.

A cartridge for binding multi-page documents comprises a center member and a pair of side members pivotally connected to the center member. In the closed operative configuration, the side and center members cooperate to form a U-shaped channel for receiving the documents. Pins extending between and supported by the side members enter aligned holes in the documents for suspending them. The side members are provided with a lock for releasably locking the cartridge in the closed configuration. The ...

A document file in which a plurality of compartments formed of soft synthetic resin sheet material are connected contiguously in an accordion-like fashion and mounted between a pair of covers includes auxiliary sheets attached along both side edges and a bottom edge to each of the covers. Each of the covers includes a thick paper pad mounted between the two resin sheets. The pads are laterally shorter than the resin sheets and mounted so as to leave spaces at the end portions thereof so that sid...

A document scanner for utilization with a word processing and/or graphics processing equipment, such as a personal computer environment. The document scanner provides improved pixel compensation and gamma compensation techniques as well as improved control in the illumination process of the scanning of a document.
