Definitions
- known printers monitor how long a sensor signal, which is triggered by a page in the sensor area, is present. If this time exceeds a predetermined limit value, it is assumed that the paper is jammed in the area of the sensor. In the case of known printers or copiers, the time it takes for a single sheet after passing a first sensor to arrive at a second sensor is also recorded. If this time exceeds a preset limit value, it is assumed that the single sheet is still in the area between the two sensors and a paper jam has occurred. In known printers and copiers, the actuators are controlled according to a control scheme depending on sensor signals.
- a predetermined sheet spacing must be set between successive single sheets to be printed.
- the sheet spacing between two individual sheets is measured, and if there is a deviation from a preset sheet spacing, the sheet spacing for subsequent single sheets is controlled as a function of the deviation.
- a large number of time monitors for relative times are required, which intervene in the individual control processes and are provided by the controls of the assemblies of the printer or copier.
- a plurality of sensors and actuators are required um.slitis to ensure high printing speed and high print quality.
- a second aspect of the invention relates to a device for controlling an electrographic printer or copier which determines individual sheet-related information from the print data supplied to the printer or copier.
- the control determines the path of the individual sheet through the printer or the copier to generate at least one print image on at least one side of the individual sheet.
- the control determines at least one target point in time at which at least one sensor signal is to be expected and / or at least one actuator is to be controlled.
- the target time is based on a time standard of the printer or copier.
- the target times can be determined before the transport of the single sheet is controlled by the printer or copier, as a result of which the control or the controls of the printer or copier neither determine nor set the target times during the actual control process monitor and is relieved.
- the target time is related to a time standard, for example the system time, of the printer or copier, the target time can easily be monitored with the aid of a time control.
- the control of the printer or copier for controlling the single sheet along the conveying path is thus relieved of the determination and monitoring of the target time.
- determining and monitoring the target time requires considerable control resources.
- the control unit compares the second actual time with a second target time and controls the conveying speed of the second single sheet in an area after the measuring point.
- the control unit at least increases, decreases or maintains the conveying speed of the second single sheet part of the range, depending on the deviation of the second actual time from the second target time. This ensures that the sheet spacing between the first and the second single sheet is set exactly and very small sheet spacings can be set precisely.
- the printing speed of the printer or copier can be increased by the possibility of dividing such small sheet spacings.
- an exact positioning of the printed image on the single sheet is easily possible. This increases the performance of the printer or copier and improves the print quality.

Depending on the comparison result, the control unit determines the time at which the roller pair WP3 the feed speed Vr. N p ⁇ reduced to the conveying speed V TR .
- the single sheet removed from the storage compartment Tray_C arrives at the light barrier LS9 at a predetermined target time.
- the storage compartment su_B and the storage compartment su_A there is no regulation when the single sheet is removed from the storage compartment su_C, since only a target time with the help of the light barrier LS3 is detected and not with two light barriers arranged at a distance along the conveyor path, as is the case with the storage compartments su_A and su_B.
- the uppermost single sheet in the storage compartment Tray_D is accelerated to the feed speed V INPU with the help of the suction belt SB_D and fed to the pair of rollers WP4.
- the single sheet is then conveyed through the pair of rollers WP8 to the light barrier LS9.
- the pair of rollers WP8 is driven by the stepper motor SM9, whereby the single sheet is conveyed by the pair of rollers WP8 with the constant conveying speed V TR on the paper path to the printer.
- the single sheets fed in the direction of the arrow P1 can also be supplied by an external preprocessing unit, such as another printer, an embossing unit or a cutting unit.
- the single sheets taken from the storage compartments su_A, su_B, su_C, su_D are positioned with the help of the stepper motors SM1A, SM2A, SM3A and SM4A, so that they arrive at the light barrier LS9 at a preset time of arrival.
- This positioning is carried out depending on previously specified target times on light barriers, which are used to control or regulate the single-sheet adjustment. These light barriers determine the actual point in time, which is then compared with a previously specified target point in time.
- the point in time at which the feed speed V INPUT is reduced to the conveying speed V TR is then determined.
- the point in time of arrival is the time at which a predetermined sheet edge, for example the front sheet edge in the conveying direction, of the single sheet is used.
- FIG. 2 shows a block diagram with control units of the printer.
- sheet-related information is determined from a print data stream. The same elements have the same reference symbols.
- This individual sheet-related information is transmitted to a main controller 44 using an HSCX bus 43.
- This information includes the so-called page registrations for printed pages and single sheets to be printed.
- the main controller 44 converts this information into control data.
- the main controller 44 supplies this control data with the aid of a second controller 48 to 58 using a second HSCX bus system 46.
- the subordinate controls 48 to 58 each have a time control unit with a 32-bit counter as a timer, all the time control units of the printer being synchronized and clocked with the aid of the same clock signal.
- the clock signal is generated by the main controller 44 and transmitted to the timers of the control units 48 to 58 via a clock signal line.
- a count value of the counter is determined as the target time at which the actuation of an actuator is to take place and / or at which a sensor signal is expected.
- the control unit 48 uses the control data from the main control 44 to determine target times which relate to the paper output control with the aid of the management module.
- a management module of the control unit 50 determines target times that relate to a printing unit, a management module of the control unit 52 target times that relate to the paper input, an management module of the control unit 54 target times of the printing unit DW1, a management module of the control unit 56 target -Timers that relate to the printing unit DW2, and an administration module of the control unit 58 target instants that relate to the character generator.

- the main controller 44 transmits a clock signal of 100 kHz and control data to the management module 66 of the paper input control unit 52.
- the management module 66 determines the target times as 32-bit counts. These count values relate to the count value of the timer of the real-time module 68 In addition to the respective count value, information about the control process to be carried out when the count value is reached is determined. If a target time relates to a stepper motor control unit 64 connected to the control unit, a target time is transmitted to this stepper motor control unit 64 and monitored by a time control unit of the stepper motor control unit 64.
- the clock signal of the main control 44 is also supplied to this time control unit.

- the desired point in time that is reached next in time is transmitted to a time control unit 68 together with the associated control information.
- the timing control unit 68 compares the target time with the current time by comparing the count value of the target time with the actual value of the counter of the timer. If the count value of the timer reaches the value of the target time or exceeds it, the timer 68 triggers an interrupt and an interrupt service routine is called.
- a preset interrupt is selected in accordance with the control information.
- the control unit 52 With the interrupt service routine called up by the selected interrupt, the control unit 52 carries out the intended control action of the actuators or the monitoring of the sensors. The separate monitoring of the desired times with the aid of the time control unit 68 relieves the control unit 52 of monitoring the desired times.
- the interrupt-controlled call of the control action ensures that the control process is carried out by the control unit 52 immediately after reaching the desired point in time, for example with the aid of an evaluation and control unit (not shown) of the control unit 52 that monitors barriers and controls valves.
- the single sheet conveyance by the printer as well as the control of the printing process are therefore very precisely possible even at high process speeds in high-performance printers.

- the control entity 12 determines control instants of the stepper motors to be controlled and transmits them as a 32-bit setpoint to the control entities 14, 16, 18, 20, 22.
- the control instances 14 to 22 monitor the respectively transmitted target times and carry out a control action when the target time is reached. With the help of the set times, a stepper motor is switched on or off, for example, or a ramp function for changing the speed is started.
- the control instances 14 to 22 are designed, for example, as a stepper motor control 64 according to FIG. 2.

- time T23.1 the front edge of the single sheet X reaches the light barrier LSI.
- This time of arrival T23.1 is recorded and compared with a target time previously transmitted by the control entity 12 to the control entity 16. If the time of arrival T23.1 coincides with the target time, the retraction speed V NPUT is maintained by the roller pair WP1 until time T23.2 (nominal time), from which the speed is reduced evenly to the transport speed V R.
- the point in time for reducing the pull-in speed V INPDT to the transport speed V TR is also referred to as the ramp-down time.
- the latest possible ramp-off time is the time T23.3, in which case the uniform reduction of the feed speed V IN p UT to the transport speed V TR is completed at the time T24, at which the front edge of the single sheet X reaches the roller pair WP5.

- the time of arrival of the single sheet X is recorded at the light barrier LS9 and compared with a target time defined for the single sheet X. If there is a deviation of the arrival time from the target time, then a correction value is determined for subsequent single sheets to be drawn from the storage compartment Tray_A, which is then used to determine the time for reducing the feed speed V INPUT to conveying speed V TR .

- a light barrier control unit When the front edge of the light barrier LS2 arrives, a light barrier control unit generates an interrupt and processes an interrupt service routine.
- the interrupt service routine transmits a signal to the sensor process 38, by which the counter of the sensor process 38 is stopped or reset. If the sheet leading edge of the single sheet X arrives on time at the light barrier LS2, no error message is generated.
- the sensor process 38 uses a message to transmit the remaining target times to the sensor process 46 for monitoring the light barrier LS7.
- the sensor process 40 determines a delay time by which the leading edge of the sheet must arrive at the light barrier LS7.
- the sensor process 40 generates an error message if the front edge of the sheet does not arrive in time at the light barrier LS7.
- the target time is monitored by the sensor process 40 with the aid of a counter.
- a separate time process is provided.
- the individual target times are then no longer transmitted from valve process 36 to time process 34 and from time process 34 to valve process 36, but are monitored together with the aid of a time process 34.
- a target time is reached, e.g. with the help of an interrupt, the process or processes affected by this target time are called up or called up.
- a sensor process 38, 40, 42 is called by an interrupt, information is transmitted from the sensor process 38, 40, 42 to the time process 34, which may determine the time difference at the target time. On the basis of the deviation, a control and / or regulation of the sheet position is then carried out, as already described.
- the total running time of the single sheet Bl from the storage compartment Tray_B to the light barrier LS9 must be subtracted from the sum of the target time of the sheet trailing edge of the single sheet AI and the gap time in order to determine the target start time at which the sheet Bl is removed from the storage tray Tray_B must be done so that the front edge of the single sheet B1 reaches the light barrier LS9 after the rear edge of the single sheet AI has left the light barrier LS9 before the gap time.
- the total running time of the single sheet AI from the storage compartment su_A to the light barrier LS9 is added to the target start time of the single sheet AI and the format runtime of the single sheet AI that is formed is also formed the transport speed V TR and the sheet length of the single sheet AI. After the target times have been determined, these are monitored by the time control unit 68.
- FIG. 10 shows a diagram which shows the sequence of the valve control and the control of the stepper motor SM1B of the suction belt SB_A of the storage compartment compartment_A.
- valve V3 is opened, whereby the uppermost sheets of the stack of single sheets are fanned out in the storage compartment Tray_A in order to be able to subsequently remove the upper single sheet more easily from the storage compartment Tray_A.
- the valve V3 is open, one or more nozzles, which are arranged laterally on the upper edge of the paper stack in the storage compartment Tray_A, are fed, which then, as described, fan out the uppermost sheets of the stack.
- valve V2 is opened, whereby compressed air is supplied to at least one front nozzle.
- valve VI is opened at time T1, through which suction air is applied to suction belt SB_A.
- valve V3 is closed and then the remaining stack of single sheets in the storage compartment Tray_A is lowered. The air supplied via the front nozzle separates the single sheets below the upper single sheet from the upper single sheet, which is in contact with the suction belt SB_A due to the suction air.
- valve 10 shows the time control of the valves VI, V2, V3 and the stepper motor SMIB at a transport speed V TR of 847 mm / s, in which 160 single sheets in A4 paper format per minute are fed to the printer by the feed unit 11 according to FIG become.
- FIG. 11 shows a speed-time diagram which shows the speed curve of a single sheet when it is removed from a storage compartment Tray_A of the feed unit 11 according to FIG.
- the single sheet lies on the suction belt SB_A and the stepper motor SMIB for driving the suction belt SB_A is started.

- the speed v 0 is 3.386 mm / s.
- the single sheet is conveyed at a constant speed of 3.5 xv 0 until time T12.
- the speed 3.5 xv 0 is the feed speed V INPU of the single sheet.
- the single sheet is accelerated negatively uniformly with an acceleration of 40 m / s 2 to the conveying speed V TR 2.5 xv 0 , ie braked.
- the single sheet has reached the normal conveying speed V TR 2.5 xv 0 and continues to be conveyed at this speed until time T14, at which it reaches the transfer light barrier LS9.
- the management module 66 receives control data from the main controller 44.
- the management module 66 uses this control data to determine target times for controlling actuators and for monitoring sensors. These target times determined by the management module 66 are fed to the comparator 69 of the timer interrupt controller.
- the target times are transferred to the comparator 69 as 32-bit counts.
- the comparator 69 stores the target times and compares the transmitted target times with the current count value of the timer 68. If a target time matches the current count value, this information is stored in the memory 70 with the aid of data.
- the interrupt controller 71 determines the target times reached and triggers an interrupt to carry out the control action, i.e. to control an actuator or to set the target time of a sensor.
- the interrupt controller 71 executes an interrupt service routine and, depending on the interrupt, transmits data to a control and monitoring unit 72 for controlling actuators, in particular valves, and for monitoring sensors, in particular light barriers.
- the stepper motor controller 64 is also supplied with the clock signal from the clock generator 45 of the main controller 44. Furthermore, the management module 66 of the stepper motor controller transmits the next desired point in time for actuating the stepper motor controlled by stepper motor controller 64.
- the stepper motor control 64 contains its own time control unit for monitoring the transmitted setpoint tes. When the target value is reached, the stepper motor controller 64 carries out a corresponding control action. After the target value has been reached, the management module 66 may transmit a further target value to the stepper motor controller 64.
- the timer 68 can also contain two cascaded 16-bit counters.
- the point in time at which a front and / or rear sheet edge arrives at the sensor can be determined exactly, as with a light barrier.
- Other sensors can also be position sensors of actuators, such as position switches of stepper motors, switches, valves or flaps of the printer or copier.
- position sensors of actuators such as position switches of stepper motors, switches, valves or flaps of the printer or copier.
- all target times and actual times refer to the same time standard, for example the system time of the printer. If several control units are provided in the printer, each of which contains a time control unit, a synchronization process must be provided so that all time control units have the same system time. Cascaded counters clocked using a central clock signal can be used as timers of the time control units, for example. This provides an exactly the same reference time for all control units.
- Several processes can be provided for monitoring sensor signals and for controlling actuators, at least one sensor being monitored by one process and at least one actuator being controlled by a second process.
- the processes can be processed in multitasking mode.
- a very simple control structure can be implemented with the aid of a control unit for controlling several sensors and several actuators.
- FIG. 13 shows a printer 73 with a first printing unit 74 and a second printing unit 76.
- the printer 73 is operated in a first operating mode.
- a not shown placed single sheet is fed to the printer 73 in the direction of arrow P10.
- Possible conveying paths of the single sheet through the printer 73 are shown with dotted lines, the supplied single sheet being guided along these conveying paths past the printing unit 74 and / or the printing unit 76 for printing on the single sheet with one or more printed images.
- the actual conveying path of the single sheet fed in the first operating mode is indicated by the arrows P2 to P5 and shown as a full line.
- the printer 73 e.g. Single sheet fed by a feed device 11 is guided past the printing unit 74 and is printed by this on the front side with a first printed image. Subsequently, the single sheet is conveyed in the direction of arrows P13 and P14 and then in the direction of arrow P15 to the printing unit 76. The printing unit 76 generates a second image on the back of the single sheet. In the area of arrows P14 and P15, the single sheet is turned in order to feed it to the printing unit 76 with a rear side facing the printing unit 76. In this first mode of operation shown in Figure 14, the printer 73 can successively front and back of the single sheet fed e.g. print in the same color.
- the printer 73 according to FIG. 13 is shown in FIG. 14, the printer 73 being shown in a second operating mode for single-sided printing of single sheets.
- the single sheets are fed to the printer 73 in the direction of the arrow P10.

- the main control 64 determines the conveying path of the single sheet through the printer 73 and determines the operating mode in which the printer 73 is operated for printing on the single sheet.
- a printer with two printing units and a method for operating such a printer are known from document WO 98/18052 and document WO 98/18054.
- the printer can be operated in a first so-called duplex mode, in which the first printing unit generates a first print image on the front of a single sheet fed and the second printing unit generates a second print image on the back of the single sheet.
- a first single sheet is fed to the first printing unit 74 on a first conveying path for printing the front, and a second single sheet is fed to the second printing unit 76 for printing on the front of the second input zelblattes fed.
- a switchover time is required to switch from the first operating mode to the second operating mode and from the second operating mode to the first operating mode.
- the switch from the first to the second operating mode only takes place when a preset number of successive single sheets is to be printed on one side.
- the optimal number to be preset is the structure of the printer 73, in particular the paper format, the required minimum sheet spacing when switching between the operating modes and the printing speed differences between the single-sided printing of single sheets in the duplex mode and in the fast simplex mode. Both in a calculation and in test series with the printer 73, it has proven to be advantageous to preset a value in the range between four and twenty A4 single sheets for the number of pages to be printed on one side. The value ten has proven to be particularly favorable.
- FIG. 15 shows a table in which the operating mode selection of the printer 73 is shown depending on the number of pages to be printed in the respective operating mode.

- Column 2 of the table according to FIG. 15 indicates whether the respective sheet is to be printed on one or both sides.
- Column 3 of the table shows the previously selected funding route.
- Column 5 of the table contains an explanation of the selection of the funding route for the individual sheet.
- Column 6 of the table shows the paper paths changed after a reassessment, ie after the number of consecutive single sheets to be printed has been reached, and column 7 of the table shows the operating mode in which the respective single sheet is printed by printer 73 ,
- the first single sheet 1 is to be printed on one side.
- a conveyor path is selected on which the single sheet 1 is printed on one side by the printing unit 74.
- the single sheet 2 is also to be printed on one side.
- a conveyor path is selected in which it is guided past the printing unit 76 and printed by it.
- the third single sheet 3 is also to be printed on one side and is conveyed in the same way as the single sheet 1 by the printer 73 to the printing unit 74 and printed on one side by the latter. Printing on single sheets 1 to 3 is done in operating mode 2, i.e. the fast simplex mode.
- the single sheets 6 to 13 are also only to be printed on one side.
- the control unit continuously checks for each single sheet 6 to 13 whether the preset number of successive single sheets to be printed on one side has already been reached or exceeded.
- the single sheet 14 is also to be printed on one side.
- the operating mode selection control unit determines that the preset number of ten cut sheets has been reached with cut sheet 14 because cut sheets 5 through 14, i.e. ten consecutive single sheets to be printed on one side.
- the control unit determines that the single sheets 5 to 14 are not printed in the operating mode 1, as originally selected for the single sheets 5 to 13, but in the operating mode 2. For the individual sheets 5 to 13, the conveying path is newly determined by the printer.
- a conveying path is selected which guides the single sheet past the printing unit 74, with a large minimum distance between the single sheets 4 and 5, which is required for switching the operating modes, being set for the single sheet 4.
- the subsequent single sheets 6 to 14 are then fed alternately to the printing unit 74 or 76, as indicated in columns 5 or for the single sheets 14 in column 3.
- the following single sheet 15 is also to be printed on one side and is fed to the printing unit 74 ' for printing.
- the single sheets 5 to 15 are thus printed in the Fast Simplex mode by the printer 73.
- the single sheet 16 is to be printed on both sides.
- the operating mode for printing on the single sheet 16 is thus switched from operating mode 2 to operating mode 1.
- Between sheet 15 and zelblatt 16, the required minimum sheet spacing is provided when switching from operating mode 2 to operating mode 1.
- the single sheets 17 and 18, like the single sheet 16, are also to be printed on both sides, the operating mode 1 being retained.
- the method according to the invention for switching the operating modes can be used particularly advantageously when the individual sheets are continuously conveyed by the printer 73 without so-called stop positions being contained in the conveying path. With such printers in particular, a considerable increase in the printing speed can be achieved.
- the print data is advantageous for the print data to be at least the preset number Store cut sheets in a memory of the printer, which are then evaluated by the control unit.
- Printing unit 1 Printing unit 2
