摘要:
A printer/plotter having multiple printheads which move in the given scan direction to apply a swath of images to media which is periodically advanced in a media feed direction, comprises carriage means (34) for holding multiple printheads (C1, C2) which are each separately removable from said carriage means; first mounting means on the carriage means (34) for holding a first printhead (C2) a predetermined distance from the media (27); second mounting means on the carriage means (34) for holding a second printhead (C1) substantially the same predetermined distance from the media (27), said second mounting means holding said second printhead (C1) in a position displaced from said first printhead (C2) in the media feed direction (X) such that the width of a swath printed by both said first and second printheads is greater than a swath printed by only one of said first and second printheads.
