Application 10/310,733
recto-verso print a document at will if a value exceeds a postal threshold.
Examiner contends that it would. Has Appellant shown that the Examiner erred in
rejecting the claims under 35 U.S.C. § 103 over Bresnan and Bucci in not showing
that the cited art combination would lead one of ordinary skill in the art to the
claimed invention?
B. Facts
The record supports the following findings of fact by a preponderance of the
evidence.
1. The Examiner finds that Bresnan discloses a mail processing machine
comprising:
• a recto-verso printer (Bresnan, Fig. 1, reference no. 35) adapted to
receive data to be printed and to print documents with the data (Bresnan,
Fig. 1, reference nos. 36 and 38);
• documents designed to be enclosed and franked (Bresnan, Fig. 1,
reference no. 40, col. 2, ll. 42-43);
• wherein the printer is capable of recto-verso printing the documents
(Bresnan, col. 2, ll. 26-27) and
• wherein means upstream of the printer (Bresnan, Fig. 1, reference no. 10)
selects (Bresnan, col. 2, ll. 21-38) the process for franking the cover by
recto-verso printing the documents (Bresnan, Fig. 1, reference no. 40,
col. 2, ll. 42-43).
