Zusammenfassung: | A printing system comprises: a print zone (14); a drive roller (16) positioned upstream of the print zone; a fixed vacuum platen (26) positioned under the print zone; a printhead assembly (42, 44, 46, 48, 50) overlaying and spanning the print zone; and a vacuum belt assembly (20) positioned downstream of the print zone, the vacuum belt assembly being configured to receive media from the print zone. The vacuum belt assembly comprises a plurality of individual moving belts and the moving belts are configured to transport the media at a faster speed than the drive roller. During use, the media simultaneously engages both the drive roller and the moving belts, such that the media slips relative to the moving belts. |
