Description

比较打印机型号
技术领域
本发明涉及打印机,并且更特别地涉及用于比较不同的打印机型号的系统和方法。
背景技术
当今不同类型的打印机被用于各种目的。例如,许多打印机可以被设计用于办公室环境,并且能够在标准尺寸的纸张上进行打印。其他类型的打印机可以用在其他环境中,诸如被设计用于将热转印图像打印到标志(label)(例如,条形码标志、运输标志和其他类似类型的热转印标志)上的那些。
当顾客出于特定目的购买可接受的打印机时,可能要求顾客进行大量的研究以决定要购买哪种打印机。即使有大量的信息,可能仍然难以选择,特别是因为打印机的比较通常不涉及测试实际的打印机。而且,当替换现有打印机时,顾客可能希望分析一个或多个新打印机以确定新打印机替换现有打印机的兼容性。因此,存在对用于使得能够分析不同打印机的兼容性并且在替换现有打印机的过程中帮助顾客的系统和方法的需要。
发明内容
因此,本发明包括用于比较不同的打印机型号的各种系统和方法。在一个示例性实施例中,用于比较打印机的系统包含至少一个网络入口(web portal),该网络入口被配置为接收用户对要比较的两个打印机型号的选择。而且,该系统包含被配置为经由第一网络接收用户的选择的打印机分析服务器。该系统还包含经由第二网络连接到打印机分析服务器的多个样本打印机。打印机分析服务器被配置为建立与多个样本打印机中的两个样本打印机的通信,这两个样本打印机对应于两个所选择的打印机型号。此外,打印机分析服务器进一步被配置为接收可以由用户提供的打印命令的数据流,并且将该数据流传输到两个样本打印机。然后,打印机分析服务器能够分析来自两个样本打印机的打印输出结果。
在另一示例性实施例中,提供了一种特定的打印机分析服务器。该打印机分析服务器包含打印机通信装置,该打印机通信装置被配置为建立与对应于两个所选择的打印机型号的两个样本打印机的通信。打印机通信装置进一步被配置为将数据流传输到两个样本打印机。该打印机分析服务器还包含比较工具,该比较工具被配置为响应于数据流而基于从两个样本打印机获得的缓冲数据提供兼容性分析。
在又一示例性实施例中,提供了一种用于比较打印机的方法。该方法包括以下步骤:建立与对应于要比较的两个打印机型号的两个样本打印机的通信,将打印命令的数据流提供给两个样本打印机,以及基于从两个样本打印机获得的缓冲数据执行兼容性分析。
在以下详细描述及其附图中进一步解释了前述说明性概述以及本发明的其他示例性目的和/或优点及其被实现所用的方式。

具体实施方式
本发明涉及用于比较不同的打印机型号的系统和方法。市场上的对于新打印机的顾客或希望比较可能的替换打印机的用户能够请求比较打印机。代表要比较的打印机型号的实际打印机被远程测试,并且然后结果能够被提供给顾客或用户。
图1是示出用于比较不同的打印机型号并且将比较结果提供给用户的系统10的实施例的图。根据图1的实施例的系统10包含打印机分析服务器12、通信网络14以及一个或多个网络入口16。网络入口16可以是台式计算机、膝上型计算机、客户终端、资讯亭、移动电话、平板电脑、PDA装置或与顾客相关联的其他合适的电子装置。网络入口16可以代表位于离打印机分析服务器12的远程位置的用户装置。因此,网络14可以是使得用户能够远程访问打印机分析服务器12的广域网络或其他类型的网络。网络14可以被配置为用于实现仅由授权用户进行的安全访问的虚拟专用网络。
图1的系统10还包含连接到打印机分析服务器12的打印机网络18和连接到打印机网络18的多个打印机20A、20B、20C和20D(共同地由参考数字20指代)。尽管图1中图示了四个打印机20,但是应该注意的是,系统10可以包含用作用于比较的样本的任何数量的实际打印机20。
每个打印机20连接在系统10中以作为某一打印机型号的代表。在一个示例中,打印机20可以包含来自许多不同制造商或供应商的各种类型或型号的打印机。因此,用户可能希望将来自第一制造商的第一型号打印机与来自不同制造商的潜在兼容的型号的打印机进行比较。通过将打印机20直接连接到打印机网络18,能够在实际打印机上执行准确的分析,而不需要用户直接访问这些特定型号的打印机。
在操作中,网络入口16之一的用户可以登录到打印机分析服务器12上并且输入用户希望比较的两个不同的打印机型号。响应于对打印机的选择,打印机分析服务器12被配置为经由打印机网络18将打印数据流提供给所选择的打印机20。打印机分析服务器12分析所得到的来自所选择的打印机的打印机缓冲,并且准备用户能够在网络入口16上查看的图像。以这种方式,给予用户对打印机20的无偏的兼容性分析,可能以便帮助用户做出关于购买或替换某一型号的打印机的决定。
图2是图示图1中所示出的打印机分析服务器12的实施例的框图。根据该实施例,打印机分析服务器12包含均经由总线接口30互连的处理装置22、打印机通信装置24、比较工具26和网络接口28。网络接口28可以被配置为使得打印机分析服务器12能够经由网络14与网络入口16通信。打印机通信装置24可以被配置为使得打印机分析服务器12能够经由打印机网络18与打印机20通信。
处理装置22可以包含用于管理打印机分析服务器12的操作的一个或多个处理器或微处理器。根据一些实施例,比较工具26可以被配置为处理装置22中的硬件并且可以包含用于比较打印机型号的专用集成电路(ASIC)或其他电路或装置。在其他实施例中,比较工具26可以部分或完全以软件和/或固件配置并且存储在存储器中。当以软件和/或固件配置时,比较工具26可以包含用于使得处理装置22能够执行如本公开中描述的打印机比较过程的程序或指令。
图3-7描绘了各种屏幕截图、窗口、显示、网页、图形用户界面和/或其他合适的显示界面。根据本文所公开的打印机分析过程,按需要将这些显示界面从打印机分析服务器12传送到相应的网络入口16。在打印机分析过程期间,图3-7中所示出的显示界面可以呈现在用户所利用的网络入口16的屏幕或显示装置上。
图3示出了使得用户能够发起打印机比较过程的分析发起窗口34的实施例。分析发起窗口34包含允许用户输入他的或她的电子邮件地址的字段36。在一些实施例中,比较工具26可以被配置为将两个所选择的打印机的并排比较的测试结果提供给字段36中提供的电子邮件地址。
打印机比较字段38允许用户选择用户希望比较的两个打印机。在这个示例中,选择第一型号打印机和第二型号打印机进行比较。字段40允许用户选择分辨率,并且字段42允许用户选择打印机被配置为在其上进行打印的介质的长度。
除了允许用户选择打印机、分辨率和介质长度之外,分析发起窗口34还包含选择文件按钮44,该选择文件按钮44使得用户能够诸如通过浏览用户的计算机或网络入口16的文件编排系统来选择文件。在一些实施例中,打印机分析服务器12可以在用户没有选择文件的情况下提供默认文件。所选择的文件将是通常将被传输到打印机的打印数据流。当用户已经做出选择时,用户然后可以按压或点击开始分析按钮46,其通知打印机分析服务器12开始对所选择的打印机的比较。
此时,打印机分析服务器12建立与所选择的打印机20的通信通道,所选择的打印机20对应于用户在打印机比较字段38中选择的那些打印机。打印机分析服务器12将使用选择文件按钮44选择的上传打印文件传送(或者将默认打印数据流文件传送)到所选择的打印机20。
响应于将文件(即,打印数据流文件)供应给所选择的打印机20,打印机分析服务器12等待从所选择的打印机20中的每个接收图像缓冲。打印机分析服务器12处理图像缓冲信息并且存储关于图像缓冲信息的多个参数,所述图像缓冲信息包含与两个打印机的比较有关的信息。打印机分析服务器12然后可以将比较结果呈现给网络入口16。
图4示出了用于解释打印机比较过程的图形用户界面50的实施例。在一些实施例中,图3中所示出的字段和按钮36、38、40、42、44和46可以被显示在图4的图形用户界面50中以及还在图5-7所示出的图形用户界面中。字段和按钮36、38、40、42、44和46可以如图4-7中所示出的那样或以任何合适的配置进行显示。
另外,图形用户界面50还可以包含使得用户能够选择各种视图的多个标签(tab)52a、52b、52c、52d、52e和52f(共同地由参考数字52指代)。标签52可以显示在图4的图形用户界面50中以及图5-7的图形用户界面中的一个或多个中。
特别地,图4的图形用户界面50示出了当用户选择多个标签52中的“如何做”标签52a时的视图。如何做窗口部分54包含比较工具26如何起作用的综述。如何做部分54还给出用于用户的说明,并且示出用户可能期望的结果类型。
图5示出了例如当从所述多个标签52中选择“图像比较”标签52c时显示的图形用户界面56的实施例。图像比较窗口部分57包含从图像缓冲数据获得的图像,该图像缓冲数据是从所选择的打印机20接收到的。第一图像58示出了第一型号打印机(例如,打印机型号ABC123)响应于提供给对应于第一型号打印机的相应打印机20的数据流将如何打印样本运输标志的表示。应该注意的是,第一图像58可以基于从对应于第一型号打印机的相应打印机20接收到的图像缓冲。第二图像60示出了第二型号打印机(例如,打印机型号XYZ8000)响应于提供给对应于第二型号打印机的相应打印机20的相同数据流将如何打印相同样品运输标志的表示。第二图像60可以基于从对应于第二型号打印机的相应打印机20接收到的图像缓冲。
另外,打印机分析服务器12的比较工具26进一步被配置为计算差异图像62,其也能够在图形用户界面56上显示。比较工具26可以被配置为执行减法功能,以将第一图像58的每个像素与第二图像60的像素进行比较从而获得差异图像62。如在示例性差异图像62中能够看到的,两个打印机之间的差异可以是极小的。
此外,图5的图形用户界面56包含投票响应界面64。在用户已经有机会查看图像58、60和62之后,投票响应界面64允许用户做出关于他或她是否相信一个打印机(例如,第二打印机“XYZ8000”)是可接受的或者可与其他打印机(例如,第一打印机“ABC123”)兼容的确定。由于对打印机的比较可以通过查看实际图像来最好地详细检查,所以用户可能能够确定两个打印机中的差异是否显著,以及一个打印机(例如,XYZ8000)是否能够有效地仿效另一打印机(例如,ABC123 )。
图6示出了用于示出命令分析部分72的图形用户界面70的实施例,该图形用户界面70可以在从所述多个标签52中选择“命令分析”标签52d时被显示。图形用户界面70的命令分析部分72包含两列,以用于关于当数据流处于特定地供第一打印机用的编程语言时打印命令是否被第二打印机支持而对打印数据流的打印命令进行分类。例如,假定第一打印机使用第一打印机命令语言,则图形用户界面70示出了第二打印机的打印机命令语言能够仿效第一语言的程度。
特别地,第二打印机支持的第一打印机命令语言的特定打印命令(例如,^A、^A0、^AB等)显示在命令分析部分72的第一列中。而且,第一语言的那些命令的描述(例如,“可缩放/位图字体”、“可缩放字体0”、“位图字体B”等)也显示在第一列中。不支持的命令显示在命令分析部分72的第二列中。在该示例中,没有不支持的命令,这能够向顾客建议第二打印机能够充分仿效第一打印机的打印机语言。
图7示出了图形用户界面74的实施例,该图形用户界面74示出了提供给打印机20的特定数据流的支持的命令和不支持的命令。图形用户界面74包含数据流部分76,该数据流部分76可以在选择数据流标签52e时示出。在该示例中,打印命令可以列举在单个列中。
然而,可以使用与关于图6所描述的显示特性不同的显示特性来使支持的命令区别于不支持的命令。例如,可以使用第一颜色(例如,绿色)来显示图7中的支持的命令,而可以使用另一颜色(例如,红色)来显示不支持的命令。
根据其他实施例,支持的命令和不支持的命令可以通过其他显示方法来区别于彼此。例如,支持的命令可以以粗体文本显示,而不支持的命令可以使用正常文本来显示,或者反之亦然。替代地,支持的命令可以以正常文本显示,而不支持的命令可以以斜体或使用更大或更小的字体大小来显示,或者反之亦然。
图8是图示用于比较打印机型号的方法80的实施例的流程图。方法80可以由图1所示出的打印机分析服务器12来执行。更特别地,方法80可以由图2所示出的比较工具26来执行。
如块82中所指示的,方法80包含接收用户对两个打印机型号的选择以用于并排比较的第一步骤。块84包含从网络入口接收打印数据流的步骤。在替代实施例中,打印机分析服务器12可以存储在用户没有经由网络入口16上传数据流时要使用的默认数据流。
在打印机型号的选择的情况下,方法80还包含块86,该块86包含建立与对应于两个所选择的打印机型号的两个样本打印机的通信通道的步骤。这两个样本打印机是代表在块82中选择的对应打印机型号的实际打印机20。块88指示:然后将打印数据流提供给两个样本打印机。基于打印数据流,两个样本打印机将输出缓冲数据,根据块90获得所述缓冲数据。
利用从样本打印机获得的缓冲数据,方法80还包含基于从两个打印机获得的缓冲数据而执行图像比较,如块92所指示的那样。如块94所指示的那样,方法80包含基于从样本打印机获得的缓冲数据执行命令分析。然后将图像比较结果和命令分析结果提供给用户,如块96所指示的那样。
块96还可以包含提供对网页的访问以允许用户查看图像比较结果和命令分析结果的不同方面。在其他实施例中,可以将比较结果作为电子邮件消息或电子邮件附件发送到用户在图3所示出的字段36中输入的电子邮件地址。
网页或电子邮件消息/附件可以包含任何数量的页面。可以将第一页面呈现给网络入口的用户界面以显示主页,其根据一些实施例可以类似于图4的图形用户界面50。主页可以包含到附加页面的链接,以用于使得用户能够查看关于比较工具如何操作的说明、查看从来自两个所选择的打印机中的每个的打印图像缓冲数据获得的图像、查看示出两个缓冲数据图像之间的像素差异的图像、使得用户能够提供反馈(例如,关于第二打印机是否可接受地仿效第一打印机的投票)、查看支持的打印命令和/或不支持的打印命令的列表等。
在说明书和/或附图中,已经公开了本发明的典型实施例。本发明不限于这样的示例性实施例。术语“和/或”的使用包含相关联的列举项目中的一个或多个的任何和所有组合。附图是示意性的表示,并且因此不一定按比例绘制。除非另外指出,否则特定术语以一般性和描述性的意义来使用并且不用于限制目的。
