Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'impression à jet d'encre pourvu d'une partie de transport et d'une tête à jet d'encre. La partie de transport transporte en continu un support d'impression rectangulaire allongé dans une direction de transport dans un état étiré. La partie de transport est pourvue d'un premier rouleau de transport, d'un premier moteur, d'un second rouleau de transport, d'un second moteur et d'un premier mécanisme d'application de tension. Le premier rouleau de transport est prévu sur le côté en amont de la tête à jet d'encre dans la direction de transport, et le second rouleau de transport est prévu sur le côté en aval. Le support d'impression est étiré entre le premier rouleau de transport et le second rouleau de transport. Le premier moteur met en rotation le premier rouleau de transport dans une direction correspondant à la direction de transport, et le second moteur met en rotation le second rouleau de transport dans une direction correspondant à la direction de transport. Le premier mécanisme d'application de tension applique la tension sur le support d'impression pendant le transport à un emplacement dans la direction de transport qui est entre le premier rouleau de transport et le second rouleau de transport et qui ne fait pas face à la surface d'évacuation où les buses sont formées dans la tête à jet d'encre.
