          Appeal No. 1998-0893                                                        
          Application No. 08/196,440                                                  

          problem of “printing backward-last page first,” but suggests                
          the user of the printer to create a “macro” and then using the              
          macro for a document to be printed “backward.”  However,                    
          WordPerfect falls short of meeting the above recited                        
          limitation).  Furthermore, Isaka does not show a folder-                    
          inserter in its apparatus.  (Again, we suggest for the                      
          examiner’s consideration a folder-inserter reference, namely                
          Gombault et al. (hereinafter, Gombault), U.S. Patent                        
          5,099,633, published on March 31, 1992, copy enclosed and made              
          of record.  However, in our view, Gombault does not cure the                
          above noted deficiency).  Therefore, the combination of Coons               
          and Isaka does not meet the claim limitations of claim 6.                   
          Thus, we do not sustain the obviousness rejection of claim 6                
          and its dependent claims 7 through 8 and 10 through 13 over                 
          Coons and Isaka, or the rejection of claim 9 over Coons, Isaka              
          and Suzuki because Suzuki does not cure the deficiency we have              
          noted above.                                                                








                                          8
