摘要:
A positioning system for positioning a plurality of rotatable objects for processing includes a base plate that is configured to be positioned on a support surface of a processing machine. The base plate defines a plurality of alignment members to align the base plate to the support surface. The positioning system further includes at least three elongate cylindrical members that are arranged in parallel to one another and rotatably supported in alignment with the base plate. The cylindrical members are configured to support the rotatable objects. The positioning system also includes a rotation mechanism configured to cooperate with the cylindrical members and rotate the cylindrical members in synchrony so as to rotate the plurality of rotatable objects in synchrony. The positioning system further includes a rotational control mechanism configured to cooperate with the rotation mechanism to control rotation of the cylindrical members.

There is provided an intermediate unit including a transportation path along which a paper sheet, on which printing has been performed by a printing unit that performs printing on the paper sheet as a medium by using liquid, can be transported to a post processing unit that performs post processing on the paper sheet, in which the transportation path is provided with a drying unit that accelerates the drying of the paper sheet.
摘要:
A medium, of which skew is appropriately corrected, is fed from an intermediate unit to a post processing unit so as to suppress an adverse effect of the skew of the medium in the post processing unit.
摘要:
A printing apparatus comprises a first roller (3) configured to feed a sheet (2), a second roller (5) for conveying the sheet fed by the first roller, a print head (7) configured to print an image on the sheet conveyed by the second roller, and a carriage (10) configured to mount the print head and move in an intersecting direction which intersects a sheet conveyance direction. The control unit is configured to perform a skew correction operation for causing a leading edge of a succeeding sheet (1-B) to abut against the second roller when the second roller stops. The control unit performs the skew correction operation before a trailing edge of the preceding sheet (1-A) passes the second roller.

In an image-recording device, a feeding roller feeds recording media one at a time from a media-accommodating unit along a conveying path. A pair of registration rollers is disposed on the conveying path and conveys the recording medium fed by the feeding roller to an image-recording region. The registration rollers include a drive roller. A carriage reciprocates in the image-recoding region in a direction intersecting a conveying direction in which the recording medium is conveyed. A recording head is mounted on the carriage. A drive transmission switching unit is disposed outside the image-recording region on one end with respect to the reciprocating direction of the carriage and switches a combination of rotating and halted states of the drive roller in the registration rollers and the feeding roller between a continuous feeding mode and an intermittent feeding mode. A controlling unit activates the drive transmission switching unit by moving the carriage to selectively switch between the continuous feeding mode and the intermittent feeding mode.

Apparatus for rotating a sheet (154) moving in a first direction, the rotator comprising:
at least one first roller (110) that rotates against a sheet first side, the at least one first roller having a first drive; at least one second roller (120) that rotates against the sheet first side, the at least one second roller having a second drive that is capable of rotating the second roller independently of the first roller, the second roller being spaced a distance from the at least one first roller in a direction perpendicular to the first direction; and a controller that controls the first and second drives to rotate the sheet around an axis substantially perpendicular to the plane of the sheet.
摘要:
To facilitate printing of postage or other images onto media of variable size, an apparatus determines the size of the medium in at least one dimension prior to or during the printing of the image, such that the image to be printed is adjusted based upon the determined size of the medium. The apparatus may be a postage meter, in which case information is received by a data processor concerning the size of a mail piece and the postal value. An initial image made up of a fixed portion, including postal indicia, and a user-defined variable portion, is then altered in view of this input to provide a final image for printing on the mail piece which fits fully on the mail piece. The alteration effects only the variable portion of the image, which may be truncated, scaled or replaced with a different variable portion.
摘要:
Die Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zum automatischen Auslegen eines Druckauftrags zum Drucken auf einem Drucker (20), der mit einer Vielzahl verfügbarer Materialgrößen bestückt ist. Das Verfahren nutzt die Fähigkeit des Druckers, zumindest auf einigen der vier Kanten des Papiermaterials kantenbündig zu drucken und umfasst die automatische Durchführung der Berechnungen zur Ermittlung der geeigneten Verschiebung der Druckbereichslage auf dem Papiermaterial sowie zur Ermittlung, ob der Druckbereich gedreht werden muss, um den Druckbereich optimal in die Materialgröße einzupassen, wodurch das Zuschneiden nach dem Bedrucken minimiert wird. Die Erfindung ist im Simplex- und im Duplex-Drucken verwendbar.
