Abstract:
An apparatus includes a reverse unit configured to wind a sheet printed at a print unit around the reverse unit and to reverse the sides of the sheet, and the reverse unit includes a winding rotary member having a cylindrical shape, and a skew correcting unit configured to correct skewing of sheets to be led into the winding rotary member.
Abstract:
A device includes a winding rotary member having a cylindrical shape; a holder having a rotating member, which is provided in the vicinity of a cylindrical surface of the winding rotary member, capable of nipping and conveying the sheet; a first driving mechanism configured to rotate the winding rotary member; and a second driving mechanism configured to rotate the rotating member. The winding rotary member rotates with the sheet is nipped with the rotatable holder, whereby the sheet is wound around the winding rotary member.
Abstract:
In the event that occurrence of a jam has been detected during conveyance of a sheet, the sheet is cut at a cutter unit, and a user is prompted to perform manual jam restoration processing according to the location where the jam has occurred. If the jam has occurred upstream from the cutter unit, the cut sheets left downstream from the cutter unit are discharged as completed articles.

Abstract:
An apparatus for performing duplex printing having a sheet feeding unit, a printing unit, a cutter unit, a drying unit, and a reverse unit. In the duplex printing, the printing unit prints a plurality of images on a first surface of a sheet fed from the sheet feeding unit. The sheet is a continuous sheet. The sheet printed on the first surface passes through the drying unit and is led to the reverse unit. The reverse unit feeds the reversed sheet to the printing unit and the printing unit prints a plurality of images on a second surface that is a back of the first surface of the sheet fed from the reverse unit. The cutter unit cuts the sheet printed on the second surface into a plurality of cut sheets each having the image printed thereon. The cut sheets pass through the drying unit and are ejected.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an ink jet printing apparatus of a low-cost and simple construction which can detect with high reliability a gap between a print medium and a print head mounted on a carriage. The ink jet printing apparatus, which reciprocally moves in a predetermined scan direction the carriage holding the print head for ejecting ink onto the print medium, includes a gap changing mechanism for changing the gap between the print head held in the carriage and the print medium and a control unit for controlling a driving of the gap changing mechanism and a reciprocal movement of the carriage, wherein the control unit drives the gap changing mechanism and reciprocally moves the carriage to check the operation state of the gap changing mechanism.
Abstract:
To provide a recording apparatus for recording on a sheet by a recording head, including: a carriage for carrying the recording head and moving in a direction crossing a sheet transporting direction; a guide shaft for guiding a movement of the carriage; and a guide shaft lifting mechanism for changing a position in height of the guide shaft at three or more stages without changing a position of the guide shaft in the sheet transporting direction.
Abstract:
A recording apparatus includes a recording section, a convey section, and a discharge section. The invention further includes an urging device for urging a pinch roller against a recording sheet, an urging force controller for controlling an urging force of the urging device, and a detector for detecting that a trail end of the recording sheet is conveyed to a predetermined position disposed upstream of a position where the trail end of the recording sheet leaves the pinch roller. The urging force controller reduces or releases the urging force of the urging device on the basis of a detection result from the detector, thereby eliminating the force of the pinch roller acting on the trail end of the recording sheet. The apparatus prevents the conveying accuracy of the recording sheet from being adversely affected.
