Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, apparatuses, and computer program products directed to generating event visualizations based on location data. In one example, a method for providing enhanced event visualizations based on location data is provided which includes receiving, by a visualizations processor, play diagram data from a play model database and receiving location data during a play period for a plurality of participants. The method further includes determining a selected play based on comparing the location data to the play diagram data and determining an actual route for one or more participants of the plurality of participants based on the location data. The method further includes generating, by the visualization processor, an accuracy visualization interface by comparing the actual route for each of the one or more participants to the selected play.

Abstract: A ribbon cartridge for a printer. The ribbon cartridge includes a frame that supports supply and take-up spools and that has one or more locating features to facilitate its insertion and positioning in a frame of a printer. For example, the ribbon cartridge frame may include a pair of detents defined approximately midway between the two spools to facilitate balanced insertion. The detents are slots with rounded ends that are configured to receive similarly shaped reference protrusions of the printer frame. The cartridge frame may also define a pocket for receiving an identification tag associated with the ribbon cartridge that ensures compatibility with the printer and passage of other information to the printer. In other embodiments, the ribbon cartridge may include a cleaning roller.

Abstract: A printer configured to print on substrates that undesirably tend to collect debris before being printed, comprises a print station including a printhead, and a printer body configured to receive a replaceable cartridge that holds a printer consumable (such as a ribbon) and a substrate cleaning structure. The printer body is constructed and arranged so that when a cartridge is received in the body, the cleaning structure is operable to at least assist in removing debris from a substrate. The cleaning structure may comprise a tacky or sticky belt, web or roller. The cleaning structure may be configured to present a sticky surface to a primary cleaning member that engages and cleans the substrates. Alternatively, the cleaning structure may be configured to directly engage and clean the substrates. Preferably, the useful lives of the cleaning structure and the printer consumable are commensurate.
