Systems and methods for manufacturing imaging components
Systems and methods of remanufacturing an imaging cartridge include providing the imaging cartridge adapted to receive a signal from an imaging device and apply the signal to a component of the imaging cartridge, and attaching a signal modification element to the imaging cartridge to form a modified imaging cartridge, the signal modification element adapted to receive the signal from the imaging device, modify the signal to form a modified signal, and apply the modified signal to the component of the modified imaging cartridge.
1. A method of modifying an imaging cartridge comprising:
providing the imaging cartridge adapted to receive a signal from an imaging device and apply the signal to a component of the imaging cartridge; and
attaching a signal modification element to the imaging cartridge to form a modified imaging cartridge, the signal modification element adapted to receive the signal from the imaging device, modify the signal to form a modified signal, and apply the modified signal to the component of the modified imaging cartridge,
wherein the signal modification element does not generate the modified signal during a time period when the imaging device is calibrating, and wherein the signal modification element generates the signal during the time period when the imaging device is not calibrating.
2. A modified imaging cartridge comprising:
a component of the imagine cartridge, the imaging cartridge adapted to receive a signal from an imaging device and apply the signal to the component of the imaging cartridge; and
a signal modification element attached to the imaging cartridge to form a modified imaging cartridge, the signal modification element adapted to receive the signal from the imaging device, modify the signal to form a modified signal, and apply the modified signal to the component of the modified imaging cartridge,
wherein the signal modification element does not generate the modified signal during a time period when the imaging device is calibrating, and wherein the signal modification element generates the signal during the time period when the imaging device is not calibrating.
