Appeal No. 96-3945
Application 08/095,016
Representative claim 21 is reproduced below:
21. A simulated print making processor, said processor
comprising:
means forming a part of said print making processor for
receiving a transparent substrate, having a mirror image
thereon, from a printer used for creating said mirror image
on said transparent substrate;
means in said auxiliary print making processor for moving
said transparent substrate and a reflective backing member
into superimposed relationship; and
means in said auxiliary print making processor for
simultaneously applying heat and pressure to said transparent
substrate and said backing member thereby causing them to
adhere to each other to form a simulated photographic print.
The following references are relied on by the examiner:
Ambro et al. (Ambro) 4,657,831 Apr. 14, 1987
Kinoshita et al. (Kinoshita) 5,138,392 Aug. 11,
1992
Claims 1, 21 through 26, 34 and 35 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 103. As evidence of obviousness, the examiner
relies upon Ambro alone as to claims 1 and 21, with the
addition of Kinoshita as to claims 22 through 26, 34 and 35.
Rather than repeat the positions of the appellants and
the examiner, reference is made to the brief and the answer
for the respective details thereof.
