摘要： A plurality of spaced-apart deflector guides are positioned over the input platen of a printer. They are suspended from an elongated media shield which extends laterally across an input media path such that a leading edge of media can easily fit under both the media shield and deflector guides. Each deflector guide has a plurality of downward facing surfaces such as ribs for directing the media toward an input slot defined by a top surface of the input platen, a terminal edge of the deflector guides, and a terminal edge of the media shield. The spaces between the deflector guides are wide enough to allow both hands to be placed directly on the media adjacent to or between two deflector guides for easy manual manipulation of a leading edge of the media into general alignment with the input slot where it can be gripped between the main pick roller and opposing pinch wheels for feeding into a print zone on the printer. The invention is applicable to both sheet feed and rollfeed printer devices.

摘要： A rollfeed braking system for maintaining substantially constant tension in rollfeed media includes a rotary brake drum on a rollfeed mounting spindle assembly and a pivotally mounted spring biased brake arm having a braking area urged toward the brake drum. A friction ring is mounted on the exterior surface of the brake drum so that frictional braking force is applied to the drum by the friction ring rather than by brake shoes as is conventional. Substantially constant tensioning of the media results since roll replacement does not require the operator to contact the exterior surface of the brake drum which leaves contamination thereon in the form of fingerprint oil, grease or other contaminants.

摘要： A hybrid printer adapted to print onto roll-based print media and rigid print media is presented. The printer comprises a print head that is movable along at least one substantially horizontal scan axis; and drive means adapted to drive lifting means. The lifting means are arranged to cause the scan axis to undergo movement in a substantially vertical direction when driven by the drive means, thereby enabling a distance between the print head and the print media to be adjusted.

摘要： A pen carriage for use in an inkjet printer of the type which includes a moveable scanning carriage, the carriage having at least one stall for reception of an inkjet pen having an upwardly directed fluid inlet which can be slidably connected to establish fluid communication of an inkjet pen on the carriage with an offboard fluid supply remote from the pen and a fluid delivery tube for connecting the supply to the pen. The carriage includes a base and a pen cover pivotally attached to the base, the tube having a length extending between pivotal connections of the cover to said base generally parallel to and radially spaced from the axis of pivotal connection of the cover to the base to permit and confine all twisting of the tube to the length between the connections. The cover also includes a fluid delivery passageway having a downwardly directed fluid delivery outlet opening toward and connected in fluid delivery relationship with the upwardly directed pen inlet when the cover is latched in closed position.

摘要： A printer or other hardcopy apparatus comprises a pinch system (20) comprising a pinch wheel (21) and a drive roller (23) in which the pinch wheel is arranged to contact a print media at locations which move continuously transversely of the direction of media advance. The surface of the pinch wheel may have raised portions (25, 26) extending around the circumference of the roller element and forming continuous bands inclined to the direction of media advance. In a modification, the bands form a helix (45, 46) at each end of the pinch wheel. In a further modification a pinch member (51) comprises two parallel rows of freely-rotatable ball bearings (52) in a holder (53), in which they may be capable of a certain amount of lateral movement.
