摘要： This is a shim cleaning blade for use in a novel cleaning station of an electrophotographic marking system having an a-Si photoconductive surface. The cleaning blade is preferably made from stainless steel but other metals can be used if suitable. The blade has a thickness of about 0.05-0.2 mm, but best results are obtained when using a thickness of about 005-0.1 mm. The cleaning blade contacts the photoconductive surface it is cleaning at an angle of from about 2 to about 40 degrees.

摘要： A printing apparatus or printing system that uses multiple print engines to form an image on a substrate. The printing apparatus or printing system may be a surface printing system or a reverse printing system. Each of the multiple print engines has at least one color station. The color stations are arranged in the print engines and between the multiple print engines based on whether the printing system is a surface printing system or a reverse printing system to control the order in which colorant is formed on a substrate. Multiple print engines allow for, among other things, a greater color gamut and therefore assists in expansion of the standard color gamut.
