Appeal 2007-0974
Application 08/979,567
Moghadam describes a temporary buffer memory 138 (Figure 9) that
records high resolution picture image data (col. 7. ll. 51 to 54) obtained by
reading a developed film 128, and records printing service information (e.g.,
film processing lab name and address, film order comments, billing
information, number of digital image files created from the scanned film,
date, time and type of services provided) (col. 8, ll. 10 to 26) regarding the
printing service that can be provided for the high resolution picture image
data. The picture image data (e.g., sizes of prints) and the printing service
information (e.g., kind of services offered by the printing service) are
transmitted as a file to the remote image server 148 where the data and
information are displayed on monitor 151 as an order screen for a user
(Figure 5; column 6, ll. 1 to 8; col. 8, ll. 27 to 30). The billing information,
the date, time and type of service are updateable service information. The
temporary buffer memory 138 is portable because it is either removably
located in the personal computer (PC) 136 or it is removably attached to a
port on the PC.
Farros was cited by the Examiner for a teaching of a system that
permits a user to view print service information (Answer 5).
PRINCIPLE OF LAW

the Board may rely on one reference alone without designating it as a new
ground of rejection. In re Bush, 296 F.2d 491, 496, 131 USPQ 263, 266-67
(CCPA 1961); In re Boyer, 363 F.2d 455, 458 n.2, 150 USPQ 441, 444 n.2
