    摘要: A modular printer having a media take-up assembly, a support block assembly, a printhead assembly, a stepper motor assembly and a display assembly is provided. A support housing having a plurality of recesses formed on an internal wall of the modular printer is also provided. Each of the recesses is configured to receive and align one of the modular printer assemblies with the other modular printer assemblies. Each of the assemblies is configured as a module which can be easily accessed and quickly secured to or detached from the support housing. The support housing is adapted to receive assembly modules for both thermal ink printers and ribbon ink printers such that the modular printer can be easily converted from one to the other.

    摘要: A media supply for a thermal ink printer, includes a central shaft defining a longitudinal axis, a media hub for supporting a supply of media in a coiled configuration coaxially mounted about the central shaft and adapted for rotational movement thereabout, a hub clamp mounted to the media hub and adapted for axial movement therealong to accommodate media supplies of various lengths and a torsion spring mounted about the central shaft and operatively engageable with the media hub to rotatably bias the media hub to an initial position corresponding to an unstressed condition of the torsion spring in response to movement of the media hub through a predetermined angular sector of rotation in one rotational direction, to thereby maintain a predetermined level of tension on the media. A locking member may be associated with the hub clamp to selectively secure the hub clamp at a predetermined axial position.

    摘要: An apparatus and method of securing and maintaining the integrity of desired information on a ribbon and media subsequent to a printing operation is provided. The apparatus and method includes a thermal transfer printer having a print station and a printhead operable for performing a printing operation. The printhead is capable of performing an initial print operation and then being raised from the media, thereby allowing the used ribbon to be rewound a predetermined distance about a supply spindle. Thereafter, a second print operation is performed on the space previously printed upon using characters, designs or block-out patterns and the used ribbon is then wound onto a take-up spindle. In exemplary embodiments, the used ribbon can also be reprinted with a waste media several times thus further obscuring the image on the used ribbon.
