Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide for improved print position compensation, for example to improve accuracy of print job(s) performed by a printer. The print position compensation enables an offset of the time until printing occurs on a print media to account for changes and/or erroneous movement in a print media, such as due to slippage and/or other results of a force applied to the print media. Particular embodiments determine data values derived both for an output phase and a retraction phase of the printer's operation. Various embodiments generate a print position compensation based on sensor-based edge position distances determined during each of a media output phase and a media retraction phase. Alternatively or additionally various embodiments generate a print position compensation based on sensor-based media movement phase timestamp differentials determined during each of a media output phase and a media retraction phase.

Abstract: Printer circuits and components for detecting a media low condition on a printer are provided. The printer circuit comprises a motor coupled to a platen roller, a current sense resistor coupled in series with the motor, a current measuring circuit comprising an operational amplifier circuit configured to receive input voltage and output voltage of the current sense resistor, generate a differential voltage based at least in part on the input voltage and the output voltage, and convert the differential voltage to a current, and an analog-to-digital converter and control mechanism configured to receive the current from the current measuring circuit and control operation of the motor based at least in part on the current.

Abstract: Various methods and systems for a printer having verifiers are disclosed herein. Such methods provide for voiding a printed media in a batch printing run. The methods further correspond to identifying the printed media that is printed as part of the batch printing run as a failed media in an instance an assigned grade fails to satisfy a predetermined threshold, marking the printed media as a failed printed media, determining whether the batch print run is in sequential mode or non-sequential mode, marking the one or more subsequently printed media as additional failed printed media, and reprinting the failed media in sequence after one or more subsequently printed media before continuing the batch printing run if the batch print run is in sequential mode.

Abstract: Printers capable of determining a media type of a media and associated methods are provided. An example method includes scanning a media with a verifier associated with the printer to generate at least two consecutive windows of the media. The example method further includes determining a vertical length of a captured image based on a comparison of image characteristic values captured in the at least two consecutive windows. The example method further includes determining a media characteristic associated with the media based at least on the captured image and the vertical length and one or more stored media profiles. The example method further includes calibrating the printer based on the media characteristic.
