Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for printing image material in an ink jet printer. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for performing the method.
- Ink-jet printers are also known which are equipped with an ink-jet print head which contains the image material to be printed in its entirety
- a particular advantage of the present invention is that the use of commercially available ink jet print heads can save a considerable amount of money, since no special one is required Production of print heads is necessary, as is the case with so-called “page-wide-array print heads”, which cover the entire width of the image material.
- a suction device is preferably provided for placing or removing the image material, since such a suction device treats the image material in an extremely gentle manner.
- transport rollers would also be conceivable.
- the position data of the image material is recorded from the control data for the mutual positioning of image material and ink-jet print head.
- the image material is preferably aligned in front of the sheet carrier via a mechanical centering device.
- the width of the sheet carrier in particular also when processing smaller formats, can be fully utilized, it is provided according to a preferred embodiment that several rows of image material can be printed side by side.
- a web distributor which can generate several rows of image material, is preferably arranged in front of the sheet carrier.
- the dryer can preferably be activated at any printing position for drying the already printed image material.
- This solution creates a cost-effective device in a simple manner, in which the movement of the ink-jet print head or the sheet carrier is possible without great effort in the smallest space.
- the device can be designed such that either the ink jet print head or the sheet carrier in the x and y directions back and forth is movable or the sheet carrier is movable in one direction and the ink jet print head in the other direction.
- this movement of the ink jet print head is advantageously realized in such a way that the ink jet print head can be moved back and forth in the y direction on an in X-direction sliding guide rail is mounted.
- This configuration enables a cost-effective and space-saving implementation of the idea according to the invention.
- the ink jet print head is preferably designed such that the ink jet print head consists of a plurality of print heads located one behind the other in the x direction. According to a further development according to the invention, these print heads can be arranged in two parallel rows. It is advantageous if the print heads of the first row are offset from the print heads of the second row. This configuration has the advantage that the width of the print carriage can be kept relatively small, so that the ratio of scan path to usable print width is increased. This results in a significant increase in productivity of the entire device. Since the image material to be printed continues to be transported after each scan of the print carriage, there is a significantly longer period of time between printing on a paper spot with different colors. This gives the ink an opportunity to dry and significantly reduces the risk of color bleeding.
- the sheet carrier preferably consists of a hydrophobic suction tape. This has the advantage that, on the one hand, ink splatters that get onto the sheet support during borderless printing can be removed again with ease, and, on the other hand, both suction of the image material and suction of the ink splashes are made possible by the suction tape.
- a web distributor can be arranged in front of the sheet carrier so that several rows of image material can be applied to the sheet carrier at the same time.
- a drying area advantageously adjoins the printing area, the sheet carrier passing through both the printing area and the drying area. This avoids that the image material must first be removed from the sheet carrier and then placed on a new conveyor which conveys the image material through the dryer.
- a sensor system for detecting the position data of the image material, which is preferably permanently connected to the print heads. In this way, optimal printing can be guaranteed even with inclined image material.
- a sheet carrier 1 can be seen, which in the present case is designed as a hydrophobic suction belt, which rotates over two rollers (not shown). Several rows of image material 2 lie on the sheet carrier 1.
- a sorter 8 can be provided behind the sheet carrier 1, which sorts the printed image material 2 in a corresponding manner.
- the sorter 8 can be operated via a conveyor 9.
- the revolving sheet carrier 1 can also be seen here, on which two rows of image material 2 are arranged. Is above the sheet carrier 1 the ink jet print head 6 is arranged, which is mounted on a guide rail 7 so that it can move back and forth in the y direction.
- the guide rail 7, which here consists of two rods, can be moved back and forth in the x direction by means of a device (not shown).
- the ink jet print head 6 consists of several individual print heads 10, which are arranged in two rows one behind the other in the x direction.
- the print heads 10 of one row are arranged offset from the print heads 10 of the other row.
- a sensor 12 can also be provided on the sheet carrier 1, which can detect its exact position via corresponding markings on the sheet carrier 1.
