Copying machines

Traditional appHcations for latices are adhesives, binders for fibers and particulate matter, protective and decorative coatings (qv), dipped goods, foam, paper coatings, backings for carpet and upholstery, modifiers for bitumens and concrete, and thread and textile modifiers. More recent appHcations include biomedical appHcations as protein immobilizers, visual detectors in immunoassays (qv), as release agents, in electronic appHcations as photoresists for circuit boards, in batteries (qv), conductive paint, copy machines, and as key components in molecular electronic devices. 

Photoconductive polymers are widely used in the imaging industry as either photosensitive receptors or carrier (electron or hole) transporting materials in copy machines and laser printers. This is still the only area in which the photoelectronic properties of polymers are exploited on a large-scale industrial basis. It is also one electronic appHcation where polymers are superior to inorganic semiconductors. 

The main application today for poly(vinyl carbazole) arises out of its photoconductivity and is in electrostatic dry copying machines. The polymer is applied from solution in thin film (10-15 p.m) layers onto a conductive substrate. 

Changes in room use Is there a need for additional ventilation (supply and/or exhaust) due to increased occupant population or new activities within any area of the building Have new items of equipment (non-HVAQ been provided with local exhaust where needed Look for unusual types or quantities of equipment such as copy machines or computer terminals. 

Some particles and fibers may be generated by indoor equipment (e.g. copy machines and printers). Mechanical abrasion and air motion may cause particle release from indoor materials. Particles are also produced by people, e.g., skin flakes are shed and droplet nuclei are generated from sneezing and coughing. Some particles may contain toxic chemicals. 

Although the manufacturing sector continued its decline in the production of energy-intensive products, between 1986 and 1997 the service sector continued to grow. Not only did the commercial building stock increase, but the use of office equipment—from computers to copy machines—has grown rapidly. In just three years, between 1992 and 1995, the number of personal computers and computer terminals m commercial buildings increased from 29.8 million to 43 million (45%). 

Today belts are used in automobiles to drive aux-iliaiy devices such as air conditioning, power brakes, power steering, the alternator, and the cooling fluid pump. Belts also can be found in household appliances such as vacuum sweepers, on lathes in machine shops, or inside copying machines.

For some instruments, the manual may be needed with the instrument for proper operation. This is particularly true in educational laboratories. In such cases, the manufacturer vdll generally be happy to supply extra copies, or the significant parts of a manual may be copied on the office copy machine. In all cases, the original manual and instructions must be properly filed.

One could, of course, cut an original document in half and feed one half into a copy machine at each end. However, this would be merely making a copy on a progenerated substratum, not a demonstration that copying amounts to the same kind of process as progeneration. 

Special Note Never, under any circumstances attempt to make any drug using any of the formulas from this book. Find e reference given in a library and copy the said formula from the Journal only by a copy machine. The publisher and myself are human and may have made... 

The stratosphere is often referred to as the ozone layer, because of the relatively high concentrations produced by photochemical reactions in this region of the atmosphere. Ozone, derived from the Greek word meaning to smell, was first discovered by Schonbein in 1839. It has a rather pungent smell, which is sometimes noticeable around copy machines and laser printers that use discharge processes. 

There are some additional sources of 03 indoors. These include dry-process photocopying machines, laser printers, and electrostatic precipitators (e.g., Leovic et al., 1996 Wolkoff, 1999). Indeed, it is not unusual to detect O, by its odor during operation of some copy machines and laser printers. 

For housings of copy machines, antistatic performance is required for preventing dust adhesion. However, an antistatic agent is gen-... 

Beryllium connections and contacts are employed for switchgear and relays. Beryllium oxide is used as substrata for electronic circuits. Cadmium is used in television and fluorescent light phosphors. Cadmium, nickel and mercury are employed in batteries such as "nicad" cells and mercury cells. Mercury is used in fluorescent lamps, electrical switches, and outdoor lamps, as well as instruments for measuring pressure, temperature, and density. Selenium is employed as a photoreceptor in copying machines, and as a semiconductor in rectifiers. Lead applications include lead add storage batteries, a component in color television glass, and, in its oxide form, use as a dielectric material. 

Four copy machines make 240 total copies in three minutes. How long will it take five copy machines to make the same number of copies ... 

Five copy machines will make 240 copies in 2.4 minutes. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, 0.4 of a minute is equal to (0.4)(60) = 24 seconds. The copies will be made in 2 minutes, 24 seconds.

Suppose that a claimed invention defined a copying machine with features resulting in an improved precision of reproduction and suppose further that an embodiment of this apparatus could comprise further features (not claimed but apparent to the skilled person) the only purpose of which would be that it should also allow reproduction of security strips in banknotes strikingly similar to those in genuine banknotes. In such a case, the claimed apparatus would cover an embodiment for producing counterfeit money which could be considered to fall under Article 53(a) EPC. There is, however, no reason to consider the copying machine as claimed to be excluded since its improved properties could be used for many acceptable purposes . 

Polystyrene capacitors have exceptionally low tan S values (< 10 q, making them well suited for frequency-selective circuits in telecommunications equipment. Polymer capacitors are widely used for power-factor correction in fluorescent lighting units, and in start/run circuitry for medium-type electric motors used in washing machines, tumble-dryers and copying machines for example. They are also used in filter circuits to suppress radio frequencies transmitted along main leads. Such interference noise may originate from mechanical switches, furnace controllers and switch mode power supplies it not only spoils radio and television reception but can also cause serious faults in data-processing and computer equipment. 

Xerox first introduced benchmarking in 1979. Initially, it was used to compare the unit manufacturing costs and the features available in their copying machines with those from competitor companies. The process was expanded into a philosophy for ongoing improvement...
