Abstract: A device for processing media may include a system and method for loading and unloading consumable supplies of a media processing device, and more particularly, a system and method for providing a compact form factor media processing device which provides convenient access to the replaceable components of the media processing device. A media processing device may include a base and a lid hingedly attached to the base, moveable between a closed position in which the lid is secured to the base, and an open position. A cavity may be defined between the lid and the base, where the cavity is inaccessible when the lid is in the closed position and the cavity is accessible when the lid is in the open position. The media processing device may include a ribbon positioning assembly disposed within the cavity.

Abstract: Media cutting assemblies are disclosed. An example media cutting assembly includes a stationary surface extending along a plane; a circular blade to traverse the stationary surface along the plane, a portion of the circular blade being in contact with the stationary surface; and a guide to direct media along a path that interests the plane, wherein the guide extends toward the plane at a non-perpendicular angle relative to the plane.
