    摘要: A method of cleaning a heated drum within a continuous web printer includes operating an actuator to rotate a drum that is heated to a first temperature. The drum rotates in a process direction of a media web contacting the drum and heats the media web as the media web moves over a portion of the drum. The method also includes stopping movement of the media web, heating the drum to a second temperature that is greater than the first temperature, and operating the actuator to rotate the drum against a portion of the stopped media web to transfer ink from the drum to the portion of the stopped media web.

    摘要: A method enables an operator to detect misalignment of printheads that eject clear ink in an inkjet printer. The method prints a first test pattern with a first color of ink and then prints a second test pattern of clear ink on top of the first test pattern. The ink of the first and the second test patterns is then spread to enable the clear ink to be dispersed in interstitial spaces in the ink of the first color. An operator is then able to detect the spatial relationship of predetermined marks in the second test pattern to predetermined marks in the first test pattern. The predetermined marks of the first and the second test patterns are arranged to enable an operator to detect a misalignment distance and the inkjet printer uses the misalignment distance entered by the operator to adjust the alignment of the printheads that eject clear ink.

    摘要: Fixing devices for fixing marking material to a substrate, printing apparatuses and methods of fixing marking material to a substrate are provided. An exemplary embodiment of the fixing devices includes a first roll including an outer surface; a second roll forming a fixing nip with the outer surface of the first roll at which is received a pre-heated substrate on which marking material is disposed; a release agent applicator system including a supply of a release agent having a viscosity of from about 10 cST to about 300 cST, and a release agent applicator for applying the release agent to the outer surface of the first roll; and a thermal energy source for heating the outer surface of the first roll to a temperature of less than a boiling point of the release agent. The first roll and second roll are operable to apply heat and a pressure of at least about 500 psi to the pre-heated substrate and marking material at the fixing nip to fix the marking material to the substrate.
