Abstract

A printer utilizes a clock for controlling sheet feeding and imaging operations. The system utilizes sheet feeders with sheet feeding rates maintainable within very narrow time tolerances. Thus, sheet feeding events alone or clock pulses alone can be utilized to control the imaging system. The system allows high throughput rates and reduces the complexity and cost of control systems.
