摘要:
An ink jet recording apparatus comprises a timer for measuring an elapse of time from a predetermined measurement start timing, a backup power source for supplying power to the timer when a main power source is turned off, and a controller for changing the content and/or the frequency of a recover operation for recovering and preventing a discharge error in a discharge port for discharging ink on the basis of the elapsed time.
摘要:
An operation method on an ink jet recording apparatus, comprises the steps of: moving a recording head to a position at which the recording head faces to a cap, causing the recording head to discharge ink from an ink discharge port thereof into the cap after each lapse of a predetermined time period or each lapse of a printing operation period for a predetermined numbers of lines; and idle-discharging the ink collected in the cap when the removing operation of a recording medium is performed succeedingly to the discharge, or when the period longer than said printing operation period has been lapsed while the recording head stays at the position.

An apparatus for recovering the discharge function of an ink-jet printer by suction comprises a plurality of cap members facing fluid discharge recording means each for ejecting an ink onto a recording surface of a recording medium so as to record an image, wherein each of the cap members comprises a cap slider disposed in a cap holder to be movable in a back-and-forth direction and having a rear end portion provided with a stopper member which can abut against a rear end face of the cap holder; a rubber member disposed in a front opening portion of the cap slider and having an inner portion which can be coupled to the fluid discharge recording means; and a spring member interposed between the cap holder and the cap slider and compressed when the rubber member is depressed backward.
摘要:
In a recorder having a record head which discharges liquid to record dots and which has a discharge energy generating element arranged on a substrate, a liquid discharge port arranged for the discharge energy generating element and a liquid path for supplying the liquid to the liquid discharge path, non-discharge of the liquid in the recorder is prevented by energizing the discharge energy generating element in a non-discharge condition when the recorder is powered on and/or when a predetermined waiting time has elapsed.
摘要:
A suction recovering device for an ink jet printer is provided with liquid injection recording means for injecting ink to the recording surface of a recording medium to thereby effect recording and a cap member opposed to the liquid injection recording means in a predetermined position, characterized in that a porous cellular structure in which capillary forces are created is provided below the cap member, the porous cellular structure being designed so as to be capable of contacting a porous absorbing member in a waste ink reservoir.
摘要:
An ink jet printing apparatus has a printing head assembly for ejecting an ink as an ink drop from an opening on a printing medium, the ink being stored inside the ink jet printing apparatus; and an ejection recovery unit, arranged to communicate with the printing head assembly through a channel, for eliminating nonejection of the ink from the printing head assembly by generating a negative pressure, the ejection recovery unit being arranged to determine the negative pressure.
摘要:
An ink jet recording head has a nozzle for discharging ink and an ink chamber for supplying ink to the nozzle. A valve mechanism actuated by a vacuum force is arranged in the ink chamber in which an air layer is created as the ink is supplied into the ink chamber.
摘要:
An ink jet recording apparatus of the type in which ink is jetted toward recording paper from the tip end of a recording head to effect printing on the recording paper. The recording head is provided with a capping for covering the tip end of the head. The capping includes an ink suction mechanism for sucking ink from the recording head only when the tip end is capped.
摘要:
An ink tank comprises a deformable ink bag for storing ink provided in a case, wherein a low strength portion is formed in a member constituting said case, and a lever for pressing said ink bag is formed by breaking said low strength portion. An ink-jet recording apparatus comprises a recording head unit having a discharging port for forming a flying droplet by discharging ink, and an ink tank for storing ink supplied to said recording head unit, wherein means for breaking a low strength portion of a case for said ink tank is provided to fixing means for fixing said ink tank in which a deformable ink bag for storing ink is provided in said case, said low strength portion is formed in a member constituting said case, and a lever for pressing said ink bag is formed by breaking said low strength portion.
摘要:
A recording apparatus is disclosed which is improved in operability by linking a printing head protection device with a switch mechanism. The printing head comprises an ink jet head and the switch mechanism comprises a power source switch, print switch etc.
