Abstract
La présente invention concerne un mécanisme de recouvrement pour une tête d'impression (51) comportant une pluralité de buses agencées pour distribuer de l'encre sur un support d'impression transporté devant la tête d'impression. Le mécanisme de recouvrement comprend des moyens d'actionnement (84, 85) agencés pour éloigner la tête d'impression (51) dans une direction arquée, d'un plan de transport du support d'impression, pour la faire passer d'une première position, dite d'impression, à une seconde position, dite de recouvrement, et un élément de recouvrement (82) qui est agencé pour venir en prise (57) avec la tête d'impression de façon à recouvrir les buses lorsque la tête d'impression est dans la seconde position.
