    Abstract: A skew sensor calibration unit including a scanner providing a scanned image of a sheet as the sheet is conveyed along a transport path, the scanned image including a leading edge of the sheet and a skew detection pattern printed thereon by a printhead. A calibration module measures a top skew of the sheet based on position signals from a plurality of skew sensors indicating a position of a leading edge of a sheet as the sheet is conveyed along the transport path, measure an image skew of the sheet relative to the printhead based on the scanned image, and generates a calibration factor that when applied to the measured top skew provides a calibrated top skew that matches the image skew.

    Abstract: A printing system includes a printhead to eject ink onto a print medium in a print zone. A first roller pair is adjacent to the print zone to advance a print medium into the print zone. A second roller pair upstream from the first roller pair, and driven by an independent motor, advances the print medium to the first roller pair in a position control mode. A controller causes the second roller pair to switch from the position control mode to a force control mode when a leading edge of the print medium reaches the first roller pair. The second roller pair applies a substantially constant force to the print medium in the force control mode to push the leading edge of the print medium against the first roller pair while the first roller pair is stationary.

    Abstract: In some examples, printing device performance management may include determining a physical media feed motor speed of operation for a physical media feed motor for a printing device including the physical media feed motor for transferring a physical medium within a print zone of the printing device, and a further motor for transferring the physical medium towards the print zone. For each physical medium that is to be transferred towards the print zone, the further motor may be actuated to transfer the physical medium at a further motor speed that is greater than the physical media feed motor speed to reduce a further motor duty cycle.

    Abstract: A method for media jam clearing includes detecting a media jam with sensor in the printer, in which the media jam comprises a sheet of media stuck in a media path of the printer. The method further includes monitoring for user action that alters the mechanically alters the state of the printer and detecting a user action that mechanically alters the state of the printer. In response to detection of the user action, the printer automatically attempts to clear the media jam.
