A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head, an electronic board, circuitry, and an isolator. The liquid discharge head discharges liquid downward. The circuitry on the electronic board controls the liquid discharge head. The isolator is disposed between the liquid discharge head and the electronic board to isolate the liquid discharge head from the electronic board. The isolator includes a first isolator and a second isolator. The first isolator surrounds four lateral sides of the liquid discharge head. The second isolator contacts the first isolator and surrounds the four lateral sides above the liquid discharge head.

A sheet supplying device is provided. The sheet supplying device includes a separator to separate sheets one by one. The separator includes a separation pad, a spring, and a separation pressure adjuster. The separation pad contacts each of the sheets. The spring applies a separation pressure to the separation pad. The separation pressure adjuster adjusts the separation pressure to one of separation pressure values variable in multiple steps.

A fixing device includes a pressing rotary body to press against a fixing rotary body. A pivotable pressure lever rotatably mounts the pressing rotary body. A pressurization cam assembly pivots the pressure lever to press the pressing rotary body against the fixing rotary body and release pressure between the pressing rotary body and the fixing rotary body. A pivotable cleaning unit includes a cleaning web separably contacting the pressing rotary body to clean the pressing rotary body, a pressure adjuster contacting the cleaning web to separably press the cleaning web against the pressing rotary body, a take-up reel to reel up the cleaning web, and a supply reel to reel out the cleaning web. A cleaning unit cam assembly contacts the cleaning unit to pivot the cleaning unit to press against and separate from the pressing rotary body.

A liquid discharge apparatus includes a holder, a pre-treatment head, a smoother, and a print head. The holder reciprocally moves while holding a recording medium. The pre-treatment head discharges a pre-treatment liquid onto a surface of the recording medium held by the holder. The smoother smooths the pre-treatment liquid, which is discharged onto the surface of the recording medium, along the surface of the recording medium by a movement of the holder. The print head discharges a printing liquid onto the surface of the recording medium with the pre-treatment liquid smoothed.

A liquid discharge apparatus includes a body and a carriage disposed inside the body. A head is mounted on the carriage. The head discharges ink onto a recording medium and generates ink mist. An ink mist collector includes a fan that generates an air current that circulates in an air flow direction inside the body. A filter collects the ink mist generated by the head. At least one duct adjusts the air flow direction. An encoder is mounted on the carriage. The encoder is disposed downstream from the fan and disposed upstream from the head in the air flow direction.

An amplifier circuit is configured to be preceded by a single-ended-to-differential translate circuit using a BTL configuration operating at a low voltage and succeeded by amplifiers to amplify output signals VOT and VOB from the single-ended-to-differential translate circuit. The amplifier circuit activates a mute function of the subsequent amplifiers during state transition when the single-ended-to-differential translate circuit turns on. Consequently, the amplifier circuit fixes output signals OUTP and OUTN to 0 V and masks an output noise. The amplifier circuit inactivates the mute function after signals VOT and VOB become stable. Thereby, the amplifier circuit is capable of easily preventing a pop noise using a BTL configuration requested for high voltage output to drive a piezoelectric actuator.

A belt driving mechanism includes an endless belt wound around first and second belt supporters, rotated by a driving source, a pressure member that presses against the first belt supporter via the endless belt, a deviation detector to detect a deviation of the endless belt in its thrust direction, a cam mechanism including a rotary cam shaft extending the thrust direction of the endless belt and a first pressure change member of irregular shape, and a controller to changes a rotational position of the first pressure change member according to a detection result by the deviation detector. The first pressure change member has multiple different lengths of radii between a center portion of the cam shaft and its outer circumference and is attached to the cam shaft to press a first end portion of one of the first belt supporter and the pressure member.

A recording medium holder includes a base, a platen configured to hold a printing target portion of a recording medium, and a plurality of platen supports to support the platen. The plurality of platen supports is disposed side by side on the base. The plurality of platen supports includes a first platen support at one end and a second platen support respectively at one end and the other end of the plurality of platen supports. The first platen support the second platen support are separable from the platen.
