摘要： An improved, large-format digital inkjet print engine that includes a group of co-operating print engine subassemblies that embody various novel elements that both discreetly and cumulatively advance the current art. The group of subassemblies and sensors cooperate to produce high quality graphic images using a plurality of different colors of ink and different types of print media at speeds several times faster than similar conventional inkjet printers. In addition, the use of cooperating elements permit the manufacture of complex, large-format digital color inkjet print engines that are less expensive to fabricated, operated, and serviced. The present invention finds use in large-format digital color printing and imaging, where successful repeatable printing requires precise placement of droplets of ink, toner or other marking material on a print medium such as paper, vinyl, film, or similar substrate.

摘要： A fluid delivery system of the invention comprises one or more intercoupled cartridge assembles. Each cartridge assembly comprises a plurality of interconnected cartridges, each comprising a reservoir for holding jetting fluid and an ink jet print head operatively connected to the reservoir. Each cartridge assembly is interconnected by a first interconnection assembly and a second interconnection assembly. The first interconnection assembly maintains the plurality of interconnected cartridges at a negative pressure. The second interconnection assembly maintains at least an essentially equal level of jetting fluid within each of the reservoirs of the plurality of cartridges. Jetting fluid is replenished in the plurality of interconnected cartridges by replenishing jetting fluid in a selected cartridge and using the second interconnection assembly to distribute the jetting fluid among the reservoirs of the interconnected cartridges. A sensor is coupled to the selected reservoir to monitor the level of jetting fluid in the cartridge assembly.

摘要： A mounting slider bracket for a card printer thermal printhead is supported between a spring and the printhead, and can be adjusted laterally relative to the printhead to shift the center of force that loads the printhead against the ribbon and a card that is being printed. The ability to change the location of the application of force on the printhead permits centering the force when a card of different width is fed from a supply through the printhead. Uniform printing will occur on cards regardless of the width, when properly adjusted by the operator.

摘要： A laminator for laminating sheets of lamina onto substrates such as cards uses a web of lamina material that preferably has a bondable and printable layer on the reverse side and can then be printed with information and laminated onto a blank card. The web also preferably has a series of spaced transverse lines of reduced strength so the web can be separated into individual sheets of lamina by creating a tension in the web across the transverse line of reduced strength.

摘要： A printer for printing onto a substrate includes a substrate feed mechanism configured to secure the substrate during printing and a print mechanism configured to print on the substrate. A transceiver is configured to transfer power through a non-physical link to a radio frequency (RF) circuit carried on a printer supply to thereby power the RF circuit. The transceiver also responsively receives printer supply data through a non-physical link from the RF circuit.
