Abstract

Patente de Invenção: "SISTEMA DE ESTIMATIVA DE USO DE TONER". Um sistema de estimativa de uso de toner é fornecido, no qual um arquivo de imagem é analisado para determinar o uso relativo de toner de um ou mais toners utilizados para definir uma imagem sobre um substrato. O arquivo de imagem é analisado como uma base para estimar o custo de processamento de um trabalho de impressão particular. Em uma modalidade, um contador de cobertura de pixels é adicionado no percurso de hardware de uma impressora para contar o mapeamento de cobertura de pixels, o que permite que o uso consumível de toner seja determinado. Em outra modalidade, uma aproximação de software sobre a cobertura de toner é determinada, baseado na utilização de uma amostra de uma imagem de resolução reduzida.
