For asking spirit of the present invention and embodiment are described more specifically, please refer to Fig. 3, the explanation by a preferred embodiment among Fig. 3 is applied in technical characterstic in the printing to present the present invention.Fig. 3 one has the schematic diagrames of the printer 100 of many group light detection modules 170,172,174.Printer 100 includes a printhead 110, a colour band feed end 130, receiving end 140, a colour band 120, a mechanism of paper holding 150, a first detection module 170, one second detection module 172 and one the 3rd detection module 174 taken back of the same colour.Wherein first detection module 170 comprises a light emitting diode 180 and a photodetector 190, second detection module 172 comprises a light emitting diode 182 and a photodetector 192, the three detection modules 174 comprise a light emitting diode 184 and a photodetector 194.
Printer 100 repeats the monogenetic dye on the colour band 120 (being generally yellow, carmetta, dark green) to overlap and is imprinted on the paper 160 to present colored effect, is coated with a protective clear layer (overcoating) at last again and finishes whole print routine.When first kind of color of chromatography (being first color for example) with yellow, when being driven, paper 160 advances and after its leading edge 162 enters between roller 150 and the printhead 110, when first detection module 170 touched the back edge 164 of paper 160, the light that the light emitting diode 180 in the first detection module 170 penetrates was no longer stopped by paper 160 and is received by the photodetector in the first detection module 170 190.Receive the light of light emitting diode 180 ejaculations when photodetector 190 after, promptly send the control module (not being depicted on the figure) that a signal is given printer 100,100 time starting points of printing to start with according to this signal of printer.This moment paper 160 be printed 110 position contacting be to should start time one print the position starting point, and printhead 110 beginnings this print position starting point print data on paper 160, so first detection module 170 is as the usefulness that plays point location of paper 160 printings.
Please refer to Fig. 4.Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram that second detection module 172 touches the back edge 164 of paper 160.When paper 160 continues to be driven to advance, touch the back edge 164 of paper 160 up to second detection module 172 in printing is carried out.The light of light emitting diode 182 ejaculations in second detection module 172 is no longer stopped by paper 160 and is received by the photodetector in second detection module 172 192 at this moment.Receive the light of light emitting diode 182 ejaculations when photodetector 192 after, promptly send a signal and give the control module of printer 100,100 of printers when receiving the signal that this second detection module 172 sends, the Data Position of the data that record printhead 110 is printed.
Fig. 5 then is the schematic diagram that the 3rd detection module 174 touches the back edge 164 of paper 160.Identical with the principle of second detection module 172 of Fig. 4, the 3rd detection module 174 also sends the control module that a signal is given printer 100 when touching the back edge 164 of paper 160,100 of printers when receiving the signal that the 3rd detection module 174 sends, the Data Position of the data that record printhead 110 is printed.
Please refer to Fig. 6.Fig. 6 is that first detection module 170, second detection module 172 and the 3rd detection module 174 send signal respectively when the back edge 164 of contact paper 160, write down when receiving signal by the control module of printer 100 again and should be printed on L1 on the paper 160, the schematic diagram of L2 and the locational corresponding print data of L3.Wherein L1 is aforementioned print position starting point, that is the L1 position of printhead 110 on paper 160 begins to print.L2 is when second detection module 172 touches the back edge 164 of paper 160, will be printed on the position on the paper 160 corresponding to the corresponding print data on the L2.L3 is when the 3rd detection module 174 touches the back edge 164 of paper 160, will be printed on the position on the paper 160 corresponding to the corresponding print data on the L3.
Extremely shown in Figure 5 as Fig. 3, when three detection modules 170,172 and 174 print for the first time and (for example to print first color: when yellow) touching the back edge 164 of paper 160, printer 100 is promptly by receiving detection module 170,172,174 signals that sent should be printed on L1 on the paper 160 to obtain respectively, the information of the corresponding print data of L2 and L3 position.Carrying out printing for the second time (for example to print second color: in program carmetta), when first detection module 170 touches the back edge 164 (this moment, printhead 110 was positioned at the position of L1 on the paper 160) of paper 160 once more, first detection module 170 also sends signal once more and gives printer 100, printer 100 is when receiving the signal that first detection module 170 sends, promptly the L1 position begins to print the data of second color on paper 160, guarantees that so paper prints the uniformity of starting point.
In the process that paper 160 continues to be driven, because the frictional force that the tension force that colour band 120 drives paper 160 can vary with temperature and mechanism of paper holding 150 drives paper 160 all has error to produce, though even so that printhead 110 can the carmetta data be printed on the paper 160 according to the speed of printing for the first time for the second time beginning to print the back, the error that takes place in the time of can be driven along with paper 160 make the carmetta data printed for the second time can't be on paper 160 each position all with the yellow data of printing for the first time weigh just (problem of this prior art).Therefore working as paper 160 is moving in printing for the second time, when second detection module 172 touches the back edge 164 of paper 160 (this moment, printhead 110 was positioned at the position of L2 on the paper), this moment, the method for print data of the present invention can compare whether the data of printing this moment are the data that should be printed on L2 position on the paper 160, then adjusting print data if not is that the data that correspond to L2 position on the paper 160 (also can be without contrast, directly adjusting print data is the data that correspond to L2 position on the paper 160), so can revise from printing the printing position error that starting point L1 begins to accumulate, with the output print quality better than prior art.
As previously mentioned, Method of printing of the present invention can be provided with the 3rd detection module 174 even the 4th, the 5th ... detection module is to do the action of finer printing correction, and its operation principle is identical with second detection module 172, does not repeat them here.
