    摘要: A sheet profile input area is displayed on a user interface. The user interface can be in communication with a processor and a decurler device. The decurler device receives sheets output by any form of sheet output device that may add curl to the sheets. User input that corresponds to the curl of the sheets is received into the sheet profile input area. The decurler device is controlled to remove the curl of the sheets based on the user input by causing the decurler device to contact the sheets after the sheets are output from the sheet output device.

    摘要: A shuttling nip set sheet inverter is for use with a digital printing system. A shuttle nip selectively rotates in a forward or reverse direction. The shuttle nip rollers are mounted for mutual revolving orbit about an orbital axis. The shuttle nip rollers are also mounted for mutual translation in the process direction. An inversion nip is disposed adjacent a main nip and downstream from the shuttle nip. A diverter gate has a first end adjacent the shuttle nip and a second end adjacent the inversion nip. In duplex operation, the media sheet lead edge will pass through the shuttle nip. The shuttle nip will revolve orbitally and translate downstream. The trail edge will become the lead edge, inverting the media sheet, which enters the main nip. The diverter gate moves from an inversion position to a storage position away from the process path.

    摘要: An apparatus is disclosed. For example, the apparatus includes a paper feed to feed print media a single sheet at a time, a plurality of rotating discs, wherein each one of the plurality of rotating discs comprises an elastomer ring to secure a leading edge of the single sheet against a registration wall and initiate a flipping process, a curved baffle positioned above the plurality of rotating discs and the single sheet, an air duct located above the plurality of rotating discs and the single sheet to force an air flow towards the curved baffle, wherein the air flow follows a shape of the curved baffle to create a low pressure zone above the single sheet to keep a trailing edge of the single sheet levitated during completion of the flipping process, and a movable platform to hold a stack of the print media.

    摘要: Printing apparatuses include (among other components) a photoreceptor (that is adapted to contact and transfer marking material to a printing side of sheets of media), a transport belt adjacent the photoreceptor, a baffle, and an air outlet. The sheets of media are moved by the photoreceptor across a gap to the transport belt in a “processing direction.” The baffle is adjacent the back side of the sheets of media (the side that is opposite to the printing side of the sheets of media). The air outlet is also positioned adjacent the back side of the sheets of media, and the air outlet is adapted to direct a stream of air along the baffle and between the baffle and the back side of the sheets of media to lift the sheets of media off the photoreceptor without damaging the sheets of media or disturbing the unfused marking material thereon.
