Case 2:10-cv-O7678-JFW-DTB Document 57-4 Filed 09/28/11 Page 37 of 38<br />

#:1014<br />

Application/Control Number: 10/405,112 Page 32<br />

Art Unit: 2625<br />

master controller for contro!ling, the operations of the gaming machine (20) which<br />

receives commands through a communication link to generate a "¢omp" receipt from the<br />

reward system host (44);see col. 3, lines 35-55).<br />

However, Rowe '320 fails to disclose the generating of a voucher using voucher<br />

data in parallel with generating a coupon.<br />

However, this limitation is well known in the art as evidenced by Katz. Katz<br />

discloses the processor is further adapted to conduct couponlng activities in serial with<br />

vouchering activities (i,e..in figure 7, there are a multiplicity'of steps that can be<br />

performed in series or parallel. Rowe '320 modified _y Weiss '377 has a processor that<br />

can conduct couponing activities with vouchering activities and now with Katz, this<br />

combination allows for these activ'ities to be done in parallel; see fig. 7;paragraph<br />

[0068]).<br />

Therefore, in view of Katz, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in<br />

the art at the time the invention was made to generate a voucher using voucher data in<br />

parallel with generating a coupon in order to perform the activities togetherin respect to<br />

one another (as stated in Katz paragraph [0068]).<br />

rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103(a) as being unpatentable over Rowe '320 in view of Weiss<br />

(US"Pat 6511377).<br />

Re claim 89: The teachings of Rowe '320 are disclosed above,<br />

However, Rowe '320 fails to disclose the gaming promotional printer,' wherein the<br />
