Patent number: 8839718Abstract: A method of error correction in a printing system includes engaging a sheet of print media with a perfector arm and detecting a relative position of the perfecter arm with respect to the sheet of print media when the perfecter arm has engaged the sheet of print media, the detecting being performed using a homing sensor that is configured to sense the perfecter arm while the perfecter arm is engaged with the sheet of print media. The relative position of the perfecter arm with respect to the sheet of print media is compared with an expected relative position and any difference between the relative position and expected relative position is compensated for when feeding the sheet of print media with the perfector arm to a print engine.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2009Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Ittai Wiener, Dima Vais, Maxim Bramnik, Israel Lasker, Ayal Galili, Alex Feygelman
