Publication number: 20230302825Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mounting system for mounting a print medium supporting structure in a printing device, a printing device and a method of operating a printing device. The mounting system comprises a carrier assembly that is to carry the supporting structure. The carrier assembly comprises a bushing element to movably mount the carrier assembly on a guiding rod in the printing device. The bushing element comprises a first bushing that is to slidably receive the guiding rod and to allow for a tilting motion of the carrier assembly relative to the guiding rod around a first axis perpendicular to the guiding rod. The carrier assembly further comprises a flexible element to couple the supporting structure to the carrier assembly. The flexible element is to allow for a tilting motion of the supporting structure relative to the carrier assembly around a second axis different from the first axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2020Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Isidoro MAYA AGUDO, Ricardo SANCHIS ESTRUCH, Jordi ALBERT GINE

Publication number: 20230256754Abstract: A printing system comprises an air-transmissive platen, a vacuum source, a cap and a controller. The vacuum source is configured to draw air through the platen to bias print media towards the platen. The cap is provided on a surface of the platen, between the vacuum source and the platen. The cap is configured to limit air flow through the platen, and comprises a plurality of closable openings provided in a plurality of zones along a length of the cap in a print media advance direction. The controller is configured to selectively open or close the openings of each of the plurality of zones to permit airflow through a portion of the platen overlain by print media and limit airflow through a portion of the platen not overlain by print media.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2020Publication date: August 17, 2023Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Marcel LLORACH TO, Isidoro MAYA AGUDO, Ricardo SANCHIS ESTRUCH

Publication number: 20230158813Abstract: Examples relate to adjusting systems to adjust a distance between a print medium support and a printhead. The adjusting system comprises a support structure and a print medium input beam and a print medium output movably coupled to the support structure to support the print medium support. The adjusting system further comprises an input and an output beam driving assembly to respectively move the print medium input and output relative to the support structure between an upper and a lower end including a home position. In addition, the adjusting system comprises an input beam sensor assembly and an output beam sensor assembly comprising a reference sensor and a relative sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2020Publication date: May 25, 2023Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Isidoro MAYA AGUDO, Ricardo SANCHIS ESTRUCH, Jordi ALBERT GINE

Publication number: 20220288951Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed comprising a print engine in a print zone. A platen opposes the print engine to support print media. The platen includes a plurality of openings in communication with at least one vacuum source. The platen includes a non-vacuum region, comprising a surface devoid of openings in communication with the at least one vacuum source. The non-vacuum region underlies at least a portion of the print zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2019Publication date: September 15, 2022Applicant: HEWLETT-PACKARD DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, L.P.Inventors: Isidoro Maya Agudo, Marcel Llorach To, Eduardo Martin Orue

Patent number: 11220117Abstract: A print target support assembly comprising a print platen structure providing an upper surface to support a print target as the print target passes under a print zone. The print zone is arranged across the surface perpendicular to a direction of print target advance. The surface comprises an inner belt area in the direction of print target advance, the inner belt area bounded on each side by an outer non-belt area. A belt advance mechanism, to advance a belt running across the inner belt area of the surface in the direction of print target advance, to advance the print target under the print zone. A flattening arrangement to flatten the print target onto the surface, under the print zone, across the inner belt area and the outer non-belt areas of the surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2017Date of Patent: January 11, 2022Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Eduardo Martin Orue, Pablo Arteaga Del Arco, Isidoro Maya Agudo
