A printer uses independent carriage speeds to boost productivity, with a sub-carriage compensating for movement inaccuracies to prevent stitching errors.
A carriage beam compensation mechanism uses elastomer actuators to exert variable forces on the printer carriage structure.
A printing head controls ink ejection order to optimize droplet spreading on less permeable media.
Opposite head orientation reduces color differences by dividing the print medium into single-head and shared areas with distinct discharge sequences.
Phase shifted timing signals drive ink droplet discharge to increase recording density without requiring costly encoder upgrades.
A droplet discharging method adjusts the second head use ratio across regions to manage nozzle influence and maintain consistent image quality.
A thermal printer integrates a nested planetary gear mechanism to transmit drive power while maintaining structural integrity within compact axial limits.
A printer controller determines carriage moving direction for subsequent copies based on the first copy's movement result.
Dual velocity thresholds distinguish actual rubbing from encoder scale defects, preventing false halts.
A scanning carriage adjusts speed based on position to detect recording medium edges.
Coil on carriage induces electromotive force through magnet array interaction, replacing inefficient mechanical gears to reduce power consumption.
Alternating print directions ensures consistent UV lamp exposure across all swaths, eliminating gloss banding defects.
A regulating member switches drive force transmission states without expanding carriage movement, reducing apparatus size while maintaining reliable engagement.
An adaptive determination unit adjusts measurement intervals based on detected ejection speeds, maintaining consistent ink droplet landing positions.
A counterweight balances the Y bar weight to reduce vibration and maintain print accuracy.
A motor control system adjusts holding current to stabilize a carriage at a target stop position.
A printing device divides a nozzle array into blocks to adjust ejection density and maintain target print resolution.
Limiting the movement range of a preheating target component allows simultaneous maintenance and calibration, reducing total dry run time loss.
Segmented ink-jet head nozzles jet droplets to prevent drying while recording dark straight lines at high speed.
