    摘要: Method and apparatus for digital printing of textiles with application of immobilization compound on the textile prior to printing. The method comprises, finding failed printing nozzles; carrying out immobilization of the textile without using at least some of the nozzles neighboring a failed printing nozzle; and printing the textile. The immobilization generally prevents the printing ink from running, so leaving out immobilization around the failed nozzle allows ink to seep into the unprinted gap. The immobilization however also stabilizes the ink, so one embodiment keeps some of the neighboring nozzles on during the immobilization.

    摘要: A modular textile printing apparatus is made up of multiple modules which are combined together. Each module has one rail for bearing a printing functional unit such as a print head. A second rail perpendicular to the first rail faces the first rail, and carries a printing tray or platen holding items to be printed. The tray moves along the rail. A third rail parallel to said second rail and facing away from the printing functional unit, is also for carrying the tray. The modules are connected together and the apparatus provides a starting point for loading and unloading the trays. The second rails are aligned with each other to form a continuous printing feed along the modules and the third rails are aligned to provide a return path after printing to the starting point for reloading.
