A printhead (15) wiper (50) for ink-jet printers molded from an elastomer and including a wiping beam (82) having a wiping edge (96, 98) formed at one end of the beam. The other end of the beam is integral with a base (84). A hole (100) through the beam near the base decreases beam stiffness. A high...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A printhead (15) wiper (50) for ink-jet printers molded from an elastomer and including a wiping beam (82) having a wiping edge (96, 98) formed at one end of the beam. The other end of the beam is integral with a base (84). A hole (100) through the beam near the base decreases beam stiffness. A higher durometer elastomer may thus be used without applying excessive wiping force to the printhead. In another embodiment the wiper (72) includes a pair of wiping blades (132, 134) each of which have wiping edges (146, 147) for wiping a printhead (15) traveling thereby. The first wipe removes pooled ink and debris and spreads viscous ink while the second wipe further removes the spread ink (186) before it can retract to its former drop or pooled configuration.
