          Appeal No. 95-4373                                                         
          Application 07/917,108                                                     


          one original image to the next when properly taking into account           
          that the claims require the original images of the first group             
          that are assigned a low threshold value to alternate with the              
          original images of the second group that are assigned a high               
          threshold value.  Upon a careful review of Tzou, we fail to find           
          that Tzou teaches this process.  Therefore, we find that Tzou              
          fails to teach all of the limitations of claims 10 through 12 and          
          15 through 19, and thereby the claims are not anticipated by               
          Tzou.                                                                      
               In regard to the rejection of claim 13 and 14 under 35                
          U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Tzou, we note that the             
          Examiner is relying on the above argument.  Therefore, we will             
          not sustain this rejection as well for the same reasons as above.          







               In view of the foregoing, the decision of the Examiner                
          rejecting claims 10 through 19 is reversed.                                
                                      REVERSED                                       




                                          9
