摘要:
A printing system comprising a printing apparatus 10' and a ribbon identification system, the printing apparatus 10' comprising: a housing 20' which includes at least one removable portion, a pair of spool supports 50',52' which are rotatably drivable by at least one motor 16', a supply spool 2', upon which ribbon is initially wound, a take-up spool 3', for receiving ribbon 5' unwound from the supply spool 2', each spool being receivable on a respective spool support 50',52', such that, in use, the ribbon 5' extends along a ribbon path between the supply spool 2' and the take-up spool 3', the ribbon identification system comprising: a tag 100' for storing information concerning a property of the ribbon 5', a reader 120', wherein the tag 100' is attached to one of the supply and take-up spools 50',52' and the reader 120' is attached to the removable portion or one of the removable portions, and wherein a signal emitted by the tag 100' and received by the reader 120' allows the reader 120' to identify a property of the ribbon 5'.
摘要:
A printing device with n print heads (A, B, C, D, etc) which move together and are arranged equidistantly with a separation (d) between their centres which print on an inked printing ribbon (X) which advances when the heads (A, B, C, D, etc) are stopped and which stops when the print heads (A, B, C, D, etc) print on the same and where the printing ribbon X is divided into S sectors of I length. The printing by the heads (A, B, C, D, etc) is accompanied by the displacement of the ribbon for a d +I distance to optimise the operation times while using all the sectors S of the ribbon X in the printing process.
摘要:
The invention provides a neutralization apparatus which simplifies an apparatus composition, lowers an apparatus cost and removes electrical charge effectively from a ribbon-like substance which is charged by stripping, and provides a printer (10) having the neutralization apparatus. The neutralization apparatus neutralizes an ink ribbon (12). The neutralization apparatus has a conductive roller (34) which is arranged so as to contact the surface of the ink ribbon (14) and a neutralization brush (32) which counters the back of the ink ribbon (14). A balance of the electrical charge of the surface and the electrical charge of the back of the ink ribbon (14) is broken by electrical discharge caused by the conductive roller (34). And thereby, the charged voltage of the electrical charge of the back of the ink ribbon becomes large and the neutralization brush remove the electrical charge charged to the back of the ink ribbon (14) effectively.
摘要:
A thermal head (80) for transferring a varnish layer (3) from a ribbon (20) onto a surface (26) to be varnished, including a first ribbon heating means for transferring the varnish layer onto the surface (26) to be varnished, and a second ribbon preheating means arranged upstream from the first heating means in the moving direction of the ribbon. Said first and second means are heating shoes (60, 70) movably mounted on the body (50) of the thermal head by means of a system of hinges (51, 61, 52, 71) and springs (65, 75). Said thermal head is particularly useful for depositing thick protective varnishes on plastic cards.
