Abstract
In one embodiment, a processor-readable medium stores code representing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to print a print job, and determine target color data for each sheet of the print job while printing the job. The instructions further cause the processor to continually save the target color data to a server for each sheet of the print job as each sheet is printed.
Claims15
A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
- determine, by a first printer printing a print job comprising a plurality of sheets, target color data for each sheet of the print job while printing;
- and
- continually save, by the first printer, the target color data for each sheet, as each sheet is printed,
- wherein the continually saved target color data is received by a second printer to print a portion of the print job simultaneously with the printing by the first printer.
A method of printing with consistent color reproduction comprising:
- determining target color data for each sheet of a plurality of sheets in a print job while the print job is printed by a first printer;
- and
- continually saving, in a storage device of the first printer, the target color data for each sheet as each sheet of the print job is printed.
A printer comprising:
- an image transfer arrangement to print sheets of a print job comprising a plurality of sheets;
- a storage device;
- and
- a processor to:
- determine target color data for each sheet of the print job while printing;
- and
- continually save the target color data for each sheet in the storage device, as each sheet is printed,
- wherein the continually saved target color data is received by a second printer to print a portion of the print job simultaneously.
