Specifically, detection-phase is being supplemented, chip receives i-th bright light instruction by the internal enumerator for arranging When, ignore the color mark (not making a decision) in instruction, directly control print cartridge display lamp is lighted.So multiple chips show What is come is exactly " responding ".
Or, each chip stores the color mark of all colours print cartridge, is that, when detection-phase is supplemented, chip leads to The enumerator of internal setting is crossed, when receiving i-th bright light instruction, the color mark in decision instruction, with itself storage extremely Few one identical, then control print cartridge display lamp and light.What so multiple chips were showed, be also " responding ".
Therefore, by above technical scheme, printer is in detection process is supplemented, it can be deduced that print cartridge installs the knot of dislocation By prompting user corrects print cartridge position, it is to avoid printer draws the conclusion of faults itself when detection is supplemented, it is to avoid therefore and shadow Ring user and be normally carried out print job, be user-friendly to.
Fig. 2 shows that print cartridge according to an embodiment of the invention indicates the flow chart of lamp control method.
Step 202, in response to every print cartridge instruction is lighted, to light print cartridge display lamp.
That is, multicolor printer sends print cartridge to all print cartridges lighting after instruction, all print cartridges are both responsive to this and refer to Order light the print cartridge display lamp of itself, i.e. ink box chip be indifferent to print cartridge installation site it is whether correct so that after installing Print cartridge can be by the detection of printer.
Step 204, after the particular cartridge for receiving multicolor printer transmission lights instruction, if receive polychrome again beating The print cartridge that print machine sends lights instruction, then the print cartridge for receiving multicolor printer transmission again is lighted into instruction and its receive afterwards To print cartridge light to instruct and light instruction as supplementing the print cartridge in detection state.
If the print cartridge for receiving multicolor printer transmission again lights instruction, illustrate that triggering supplementing for multicolor printer examines Brake, now, print cartridge is entered and supplemented in detection state.
Wherein, particular cartridge lights instruction and lights instruction for the last item print cartridge in above-mentioned steps 202.Such as, the five colors Printer transmission print cartridge lights the order of instruction:M, BK, M, Y, BK, C, Y, PGBK, if lighting finger in last print cartridge Make after PGBK and receive print cartridge and light instruction, then can determine to enter supplementary detection state.
Step 206, in detection state is supplemented, when xth wheel is supplemented and detected in response to i-th in wheel supplement detection Print cartridge lights instruction, to light print cartridge display lamp, wherein, x=1,2 ..., k, k>1, work as x<During k, i=x+1, as x=k, i =1, k are that the print cartridge for receiving repetition for the first time in detection state is supplemented lights received print cartridge before instruction and lights instruction Bar number, often takes turns to supplement and detects that the print cartridge for receiving lights instruction strip number and is k.
Multicolor printer carries out the supplementary detection of k wheels to k print cartridge for being possible to install dislocation, and in 1 to k wheels detection is supplemented In, examine socket be located at respectively the 1st, the 2nd ..., at the position of the display lamp of k-th print cartridge, supplement in detection in the 1st wheel, Multicolor printer successively to all print cartridges send for the 1st, the 2nd ..., k bar of print cartridge of k-th print cartridge light instruction, this When, make all print cartridges be both responsive to the 2nd bar of print cartridge of epicycle and light instruction, by that analogy, also, kth wheel namely last Wheel is supplemented in detection, is made all print cartridges be both responsive to the 1st bar of print cartridge of epicycle and is lighted instruction.
It follows that supplementing in detection in the 1st wheel, all print cartridges are both responsive to the 2nd bar of print cartridge of epicycle and light instruction, examine lamp The display lamp that mouth detects the 1st print cartridge is bright, and while, epicycle lights instruction without sound for the 1st bar of print cartridge of the 1st print cartridge Should, printer is believed that the 2nd print cartridge arranged in dislocation at the position of the 1st print cartridge, by that analogy, and in last wheel In supplementing detection, printer will be considered that the 1st print cartridge arranged in dislocation at the position of k-th print cartridge.
Therefore, by above technical scheme, printer is in detection process is supplemented, it can be deduced that print cartridge installs the knot of dislocation By prompting user corrects print cartridge position, it is to avoid printer draws the conclusion of faults itself when detection is supplemented, it is to avoid therefore and shadow Ring user and be normally carried out print job, be user-friendly to.
Above-described embodiment is further described with reference to scene is embodied as.
Usually, multicolored printer sends print cartridge and lights the order of instruction and is:M, BK, M, Y, BK, C, Y, PGBK, wherein, 3rd, the 5th, the 7th represents the adjacent light of multi-color printing machine testing.Wherein, for multicolored printer, in normal detection shape Under state, printer has sent print cartridge and has lighted after instruction, and all print cartridge display lamps are responded, and if printer is detected last One print cartridge is lighted after instruction PGBK and receives print cartridge and lights instruction, then be can determine to enter supplementary detection state.
Wherein, multicolored printer can judge printing by comprising a how many print cartridge lighting instruction between two first instructions Machine identifies how many color misalignments, if instruction sequences are M, BK, Y, M, has 2 instructions between two M instructions, illustrates to print Machine have identified 2+1 i.e. M, BK, Y this 3 color misalignments, if instruction sequences are M, BK, M, have 1 between two M instructions Bar is instructed, and illustrates that printer have identified 1+1 i.e. M, BK this 2 color misalignments.
For example, multicolored printer carries out two-wheeled when this 2 color misalignments of M, BK are identified and supplements detection, and printer sends Print cartridge lights the order of instruction:M、BK、M、Y、BK、C、Y、PGBK、M、BK、M、BK.Wherein, chip successively respectively receive M, During BK, M, Y, BK, C, Y, PGBK are instructed, chip lights its print cartridge display lamp in response to the instruction per bar, that is, adopt and ring Logic is answered, but embodiments of the invention include but is not limited to the logic.
Afterwards, chip receives again M instructions, is lighted for particular cartridge due to the instruction and is received again after instruction PGBK To print cartridge light instruction, therefore judge that the instruction supplements first print cartridge in detection state and lights instruction, root for the first round According to the logic in step 102, now x=1, k > 1, therefore x < k, i=x+1=2, i.e., in the first round, in response to Article 2 Instruction is lighted, and this instruction is first, therefore is not responding to the instruction, i.e., when printer sends the instruction, All of print cartridge display lamp does not work;Afterwards, chip receives BK instructions, judges the instruction and supplements in detection state for the first round Article 2 print cartridge light instruction, according to the logic in step 102, in the first round, in response to Article 2 instruction lighted, And this instruction is the Article 2 in the first round, therefore print cartridge display lamp is lighted in response to the instruction, i.e., sent in printer During the instruction, all of print cartridge display lamp is lighted;Afterwards, chip receives M instructions, during the instruction is to supplement detection state The print cartridge of the repetition for receiving for the first time lights instruction, that is to say, that receive repetition for the first time in detection state is supplemented It is 2 that print cartridge lights received print cartridge before instruction and lights instruction strip number for two, i.e. k, therefore, ink box chip can determine that supplement The total two-wheeled of detection, detects that the print cartridge for receiving lights instruction strip number and is k, i.e., 2 further, since often taking turns and supplementing, and at this Two instructions are had been received by supplementary detection state before instruction, thus may determine that the first round is over.
Then, ink box chip determines that supplementing detection state enters the second wheel, i.e. now x=2 before this, is examined supplementing Receive two instructions in survey state altogether, now can determine k for 2, i.e. supplementary detection and have two-wheeled, according in step 102 Logic, now x=2, k is 2, therefore x=k, i=1, i.e., in the second wheel, lighted in response to first instruction, and this Instruction is first in the second wheel, therefore lights print cartridge display lamp in response to the instruction, i.e., send the finger in printer When making, all of print cartridge display lamp is lighted;Afterwards, chip receives BK instructions, according to the logic in step 102, second In wheel, lighted in response to first instruction, and this instruction is the Article 2 in the second wheel, therefore it is not responding to the finger Order, i.e., when printer sends the instruction, all of print cartridge display lamp does not work.
Specifically, when the first round detection is supplemented, the position that socket is located at the display lamp of M print cartridges is examined, is being sent out When sending first M print cartridge to light instruction, BK print cartridges and the display lamp of M print cartridges is made to be not responding to, so, printer can detect that The display lamp for sending M print cartridges when M print cartridges light instruction is not responding to, it is believed that the installation site of M print cartridges is wrong.And when transmission Article 2 When BK print cartridges light instruction, BK print cartridges and the display lamp of M print cartridges is made to respond, printer can detect that and send Article 2 BK ink The display lamp response of M print cartridges when box lights instruction, such that it is able to think that BK print cartridges have been arranged on the position of M print cartridge scripts.
When the second wheel supplements detection, the position that socket is located at the display lamp of BK print cartridges is examined, sending first M When print cartridge lights instruction, BK print cartridges and the display lamp of M print cartridges is made to respond, so, printer can detect that and send first M The display lamp response of BK print cartridges when print cartridge lights instruction.And when transmission Article 2 BK print cartridge lights instruction, make BK print cartridges and M black The display lamp of box is not responding to, and printer can detect that in the display lamp for sending BK print cartridges when Article 2 BK print cartridge lights instruction not Response, such that it is able to think that M print cartridges have been arranged on the position of BK print cartridge scripts.
So far, multicolored printer can be assumed that be M print cartridges and BK print cartridges installation site overturn, such that it is able to send print cartridge The prompting of dislocation, without directly thinking itself to break down, it is to avoid because multicolored printer thinks that itself stops breaking down Work, is easy to being smoothed out for print job.
In the same manner, then for example, multicolored printer carries out three-wheel when this 3 color misalignments of M, BK, Y are identified and supplements inspection Survey.
When the first round detection is supplemented, the position that socket is located at the display lamp of M print cartridges is examined, sending first M When print cartridge lights instruction, the display lamp for making BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges is not responding to, and so, printer can detect that to be sent out The display lamp of M print cartridges is not responding to when sending first M print cartridge to light instruction, it is believed that the installation site of M print cartridges is wrong.Then, when send out When sending Article 2 BK print cartridge to light instruction, the display lamp for making BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges is responded, and printer can detect that The display lamp for sending M print cartridges when Article 2 BK print cartridge lights instruction is bright, it is believed that BK print cartridges have been arranged on the position of M print cartridge scripts. In addition, when transmission Article 3 Y print cartridge lights instruction, the display lamp for making BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges is not responding to, printer Can detect that and be not responding in the display lamp for sending M print cartridges when Article 3 Y print cartridge lights instruction, it is believed that Y print cartridges are possible to be arranged on The position of BK print cartridge scripts or the position of Y print cartridge scripts.
When the second wheel supplements detection, the position that socket is located at the display lamp of print cartridge is examined, sending first M ink Box lights instruction and Article 2 BK print cartridge when lighting instruction, and the display lamp for making BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges is not responding to, and There is the display lamp response that Article 3 Y print cartridge lights instruction season BK print cartridges, so, printer will confirm that Y print cartridges are arranged on The position of BK print cartridge scripts.
When third round is supplemented and detected, the position that socket is located at the display lamp of Y print cartridges is examined, sending first M When print cartridge lights instruction, the display lamp for making BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges is responded,
And when transmission Article 2 BK print cartridge lights instruction and Article 3 Y print cartridge lights instruction, then make BK print cartridges, M print cartridges It is not responding to the display lamp of Y print cartridges, so, printer will be detected and send Y print cartridges when first M print cartridge lights instruction Display lamp it is bright, it is believed that M print cartridges have been arranged on the position of Y print cartridge scripts.
So far, multicolored printer can be assumed that be BK print cartridges, M print cartridges and Y print cartridges installation site overturn, such that it is able to send out Go out the prompting of print cartridge dislocation, without directly thinking itself to break down, it is to avoid because multicolored printer thinks that itself breaks down And quit work, it is easy to being smoothed out for print job.Supplementing for the printers of other color types such as six color printers is detected Principle is with above-mentioned principle in the same manner.
To sum up, ink box chip, when the word car of multicolor printer reaches inspection socket, is responded by judging print cartridge error number One of which situation can meet multi-color printing machine testing, and its various situation is as shown in table 1 below:
Table 1
Fig. 3 shows the block diagram of print cartridge controlling apparatus for indicator lamp according to an embodiment of the invention.
As shown in figure 3, the print cartridge controlling apparatus for indicator lamp 300 of one embodiment of the present of invention includes the first response unit 302, the first response unit 302 is used in detection state is supplemented, and supplements in detection in response to the wheel when xth wheel is supplemented and detected I-th print cartridge light instruction, to light print cartridge display lamp, wherein, x=1,2 ..., k, k>1, work as x<During k, i=x+1 works as x During=k, i=1, k are that the print cartridge for receiving repetition for the first time in detection state is supplemented lights received print cartridge before instruction Instruction strip number is lighted, is often taken turns to supplement and is detected that the print cartridge for receiving lights instruction strip number and is k.
By above technical scheme, printer is in detection process is supplemented, it can be deduced that print cartridge installs the conclusion of dislocation, carries Show that user corrects print cartridge position, it is to avoid printer draws the conclusion of faults itself when detection is supplemented, it is to avoid therefore and affect to use Family is normally carried out print job, is user-friendly to.
