Provided is an ink-jet printer comprising a carriage, which is rotatably installed on a guide shaft and includes a stacking portion on which an ink cartridge is stacked, and a balancing portion installed on a side opposite to the stacking portion, so as to move in a straight reciprocating motion along the guide shaft; and a head gap adjusting apparatus, which is rotatably installed in the balancing portion and adjusts a head gap by rotating the carriage centering on the guide shaft according to a thickness of a printing medium.

A service station system for an inkjet printer includes head caps to revolve between a capping position and an uncapping position of printer heads, a slider to slide with respect to the head caps and having wipers mounted on a front end portion thereof. The service station system also includes a slider movement unit to slide the slider, and a revolution unit disposed between the head caps and the slider, to revolve the head caps in association with the sliding of the slider with respect to the head caps. Accordingly, services for the printer heads may be systematically carried out in a relatively small space, and in particular, a compact and small-sized service station system is provided so that a volume from front to rear of an inkjet printer may be reduced.

A power transmission, which transmits a driving force from a driving roller to a driven roller by using a friction roller. The power transmission includes a driving roller, a driven roller spaced apart from the driving roller, and a friction roller to transmit a driving force from the driving roller to the driven roller. The friction roller is disposed above a line connecting between centers of the driving roller and the driven roller. With this construction, the friction roller transmits the driving force in a state of being interposed between the driving rollers and the driven rollers by rotation thereof, thereby allowing the power transmission to have a simplified structure, which does not require a separate pressing spring, and at the same time, to generate a minimum amount of power loss.

An ink cartridge assembly and an inkjet image forming apparatus having the same include a first ink cartridge and a second ink cartridge. The first ink cartridge has a shuttle type printhead to eject ink to form an image on a printing medium while reciprocating to the width direction of the printing medium at a printing position, and the second ink cartridge has an array type printhead to eject ink to form the image on the printing medium at the printing position in a stationary state. The first and second ink cartridges share the printing position. When the second ink cartridge is positioned on the printing position, the first ink cartridge is positioned at the first escape position and when the first ink cartridge is positioned on the printing position, the second ink cartridge is positioned at the second escape position away from the printing position and the first escape position.

An array inkjet head includes a body in which a space for accommodating ink is formed. A nozzle unit is formed on the body, and ejects ink from the body. The length of the nozzle unit substantially corresponds to the width of printing paper in a main scanning direction. A plurality of star wheels are rotatably disposed in the body in the main scanning direction proximal an exit end of the nozzle unit. A portion of the plurality of star wheels protrudes from the body.

A pump for an inkjet printer applying a negative pressure to an inkjet head nozzle, includes: a tube connected to the inkjet head nozzle and being U-shaped; a plurality of rollers which contact an inner arch of the tube and having a tapered shape; and a rotor to which the plurality of rollers are rotatably mounted. When the rotor rotates in a direction, at least one of the plurality of rollers rotate and squeeze the tube. When the rotor stops rotating, the plurality of rollers return to a state in which the plurality of rollers do not squeeze the tube due to a recovering force of the tube. The squeezing of the tube generates the negative pressure in the inkjet head nozzle.

A printing head cleaning apparatus usable with an image forming apparatus includes a spraying unit to spray a quantity of cleaning solution using a sprayer and a cleaning shuttle to carry the spraying unit. The spraying unit includes a cleaning solution tank to store the cleaning solution sprayed by the sprayer, a spraying cam to operate the sprayer to selectively spray a quantity of the cleaning solution, and a cam driving member to cause the spraying cam to rotate according to movement of the cleaning shuttle.

An apparatus for and method of preventing paper double feeding in a paper feeding unit of a printer include a stripper which is installed to be inclined at a predetermined angle and attached to at least one front side of a plurality of paper guides, a lever which is installed at a rear side of the stripper and has a contact surface with paper transferred by a pickup roller, and a lever shaking unit which shakes the lever so that the contact surface intermittently contacts a back side of the paper transferred by the pickup roller. The method includes applying a first paper feeding resistance force to a first sheet of paper which is picked-up by the pickup roller and transferred into the printer, and intermittently applying a second paper feeding resistance to a rear side of a second sheet of paper.
