    摘要: A printhead cartridge and carriage assembly (10) for use with ink-jet printers is disclosed. The assembly is provided with means (56) for ensuring that an ink-jet cartridge (20) is securely locked in place in a cartridge carrier (12), means (78, 78a, 80, 80a, 82, 82a) for ensuring that cartridge is registered in a given, fixed, repeatable position each time, means (128) for ensuring that the cartridge is spaced from the printing medium (40) a minimum, fixed distance, means (100) on the carriage for maintaining this fixed distance, and interconnect means (84) for connecting a printhead assembly (34) on the cartridge with a microprocessor for controlling the pattern of ink drop ejection. The assembly further includes a preloader assembly (106) for preventing backward rotational pivoting of the carriage about a slider rod (44) associated with a platen (46) of the printer and for urging the carriage toward the medium on the platen. Finally, a dust barrier (132) protects the interconnect means at the contact to the printhead assembly.

    摘要: A color ink-jet printer having a heating and air evacuation system for evaporating ink carriers from the print medium after ink-jet printing. A medium advancement system advances the print medium from an input tray to the print zone. At the print zone, a print heater whose position is fixed in relation to the printer body heats the medium to cause accelerated drying of the ink deposited on the medium. An exhaust fan and duct system exhausts air and ink carrier vapor away from the print zone and out of the printer housing. The duct system includes an elongated inlet opening fixed in position relative to the printer body and disposed along the extent of the printer housing. The air and ink carrier vapors are drawn into the inlet opening and away from the print zone.

    摘要: A color ink-jet printer having a heating blower system for evaporating ink carriers from the print medium after ink-jet printing. A preheat drive roller engages the medium and draws it to a print zone. The drive roller is heated and preheats the medium before it reaches the print zone. At the print zone, a print heater heats the underside of the medium via radiant and convective heat transfer through an opening pattern formed in a print zone heater screen. The amount of heat energy is variable, depending on the type of the print medium. A crossflow fan at the exit side of the print zone direct an airflow at the print zone in order to cause turbulence at the medium surface being printed and further accelerate evaporation of the ink carriers from the medium. An exhaust fan and duct system exhausts air and ink carrier vapor away from the print zone and out of the printer housing.
