Appeal No. 1998-0893
Application No. 08/196,440
Nowhere does Coons concern itself with the printing of
different pages of a document, let alone try to rearrange the
order of the pages to be printed. On the other hand, Isaka
does show the apparatus and means of inverting the order of
pages in a document to be printed. We find that Isaka teaches
a means to give instructions regarding the prioritized
printing sequence of the pages, and a means in which the
temporarily stored data are changed according to the printing
sequence instructions, and temporarily stores the data as
pages. See page 3 of Isaka translation. These instructions
to change the sequence of pages are sent to the control part 2
from an external source, such as console 8 in Fig. 1. Thus,
Isaka does not show or suggest the claimed “means for
inserting in the sequence of binary words a first control code
. . ., and a second control code at the end of the last page
of the letter.” (In passing, we came across a pertinent
reference, namely “Mastering WordPerfect 5.1 & 5.2 for ®
Windows™” (hereafter, WordPerfect) , copy enclosed and made of5
record. WordPerfect, at pages 305 and 306, recognizes the

Windows™,” Sybex Inc., pp. 305 & 306, Feb. 12, 1993.
