Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a printhead carrier having a first bay and a second bay. A first type of printhead cartridge is installed in the first bay. One of a second type of printhead cartridge and a third type of printhead cartridge is installed in the second bay. A drive mechanism is coupled to a wiper carrier to individually drive each of a first printhead wiper and a second printhead wiper between a non-wiping elevation and a wiping elevation. A controller is communicatively coupled to the drive mechanism, and selects one of the non-wiping elevation and the wiping elevation for the second printhead wiper depending on which of the second type of printhead cartridge and the third type of printhead cartridge is installed in the second bay.

Abstract: A carrier assembly includes a carrier housing defined in part by a wall having an interior surface, an exterior surface and a distal end. A slot extends between the interior surface of the wall and the exterior surface of the wall, the slot being spaced apart from the distal end. At least one first projecting member is positioned adjacent the slot. A circuit card is mounted to the exterior surface of the wall. A printhead cable in the form of a flexible printed circuit is provided having a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion is secured to the circuit card. The flexible printed circuit is laced through the slot, the flexible printed circuit including at least one hole to correspondingly receive the at least one first projecting member. The second end portion passes over a portion of the interior surface and around the distal end of the wall. An attachment mechanism secures the second end portion to the exterior surface of the wall.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes an image capturing system. A controller is communicatively coupled to the image capturing system. A scanner body has a scanner opening. The image capturing system is located adjacent the scanner opening. A document planar member is positioned across the scanner opening. The document planar member is communicatively coupled to the controller. The document planar member has a transparent state wherein the document planar member is clear and having a translucent state wherein the document planar member is translucent. The controller executes program instructions to control the document planar member to display scan operation related indicia formed by controlling a first portion of the document planar member to be in the transparent state and controlling a second portion of the document planar member to be in the translucent state.

Abstract: A method for automatically providing vertical misalignment correction in a hand held printer fixedly mounting a printhead having a plurality of ink jetting nozzles arranged in a column includes defining a fixed quantity subset of the plurality of ink jetting nozzles for printing a print swath; defining a reference line corresponding to a desired printing path; assigning print data to the feed quantity subset of the plurality of ink jetting nozzles for printing the print swath along the desired printing path; determining an amount of vertical deviation of the hand held printer from the reference line as the hand held printer is hand-scanned along the desired printing path; and dynamically shifting a location of the fixed quantity subset within the plurality of ink jetting nozzles to compensate for the amount of vertical deviation as the hand held printer is hand-scanned along the desired printing path.
