Description
The present invention relates to a kind of printer capable of repeat printing and its method, refer to that especially a kind of leading edge of paper that can accurately detect is to improve the printer capable of repeat printing and its method of print quality when the duplicate printing paper.
Generally speaking, the duplicate printing method of printer is used for printing color figure or literal.When printing color figure or literal, printer can heavily cover paper back and forth several times to stamp different colors, for example red, blue, green three looks.When duplicate printing, printer is wanted and can be controlled print position exactly, different colors can be imprinted on the identical position, so that the color of figure or literal can accurately reappear.
See also the part-structure figure of existing printer 10 shown in Figure 1.Printer 10 includes two clamp rollers 12, a stepper motor 14, a detector 16, a printhead 18, a transmission device 20 and a paper storage device 22.Two clamp rollers 12 are in contact with one another in rotatable mode, are used for clamp and drive a paper 24 of being sent out by paper storage device 22.Stepper motor 14 is used for driving two clamp rollers 12.Transmission device 20 is located between stepper motor 14 and the two clamp rollers 12, is used for making stepper motor 14 to be driven two clamp rollers 12 forward or backward.Detector 16 is located at the front side of two clamp rollers 12, is used for detecting the leading edge 26 of paper 24.Printhead 18 is located at the rear side of two clamp rollers 12, is used for after detector 16 detects the leading edge 26 of paper 24 beginning print paper 24.
See also the calcspar of printer 10 shown in Figure 2.Printer 10 includes a control circuit 30, is provided with a memory 32 in it.Control circuit 30 is electrically connected on stepper motor 14, detector 16 and printhead 18, is used for controlling the printing of printer 10.Memory 32 is used for writing down the step number that stepper motor 14 advances or retreats, with the print position of control paper 24.When detector 16 detected the leading edge 26 of paper 24, control circuit 30 can be judged the position and replacement (reset) memory 32 of the leading edge 26 of paper 24 according to this and at once.Thereafter, control circuit 30 can control printhead 18 and stepper motor 14 beginning print papers 24.After finishing a printing, control circuit 30 can be according to the step number of advancing of the stepper motor 14 that is write down in the memory 32, and control step motor 14 drives two clamp rollers 12 backward, makes paper 24 retreat identical step number.Thereafter, control circuit 30 can be proceeded duplicate printing again, finishes up to the work of colour print.
In sum, the duplicate printing method of existing printer 10 has the following step:
(1) utilize the paper 24 that two clamp rollers 12 will be to be printed to drive forward, so that detector 16 is detected the leading edge 26 of paper 24;
(2) when detector 16 records the leading edge 26 of paper 24, the memory in the control circuit 30 32 can be reset (reset);
(3) utilize stepper motor 14 paper 24 to be driven and utilizes printhead 18 begin paper 24 is printed forward, the step number that stepper motor 14 is advanced can be recorded in the memory 32 simultaneously;
(4) after printing one time, utilize stepper motor 14 that paper 24 is driven backward, its step number of stepping back is same as the step number that it advances;
(5) repeat aforesaid the 3rd, 4 steps, till the printing of finishing paper 24.
Existing printer 10 is when utilizing two clamp rollers, 12 drive paper to advance or retreating, because the influence that frictional force caused between paper 24 and the printer 10, make and understand the slip that produces slightly between paper 24 and the roller 12, these slip meetings are accumulated via the program of duplicate printing, make printer 10 in that heavily cover can be with colour printing on inaccurate position when printing, this makes the effect of colour print have a greatly reduced quality.Because printer 10 decides the original position of printing fully according to the step number that is write down in the memory 32, therefore can't change this influence of sliding and causing because of paper.
