  • Patent number: 11299363
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to print media stacks. In some examples, a device may include a sheet channel to guide a sheet of print media within the sheet channel above and separated in a vertical direction from a stack of printed media when the sheet of print media exits a print path of a printer. The device may include a plurality of clamps to control alignment of the sheet of print media on the stack of printed media when the sheet channel moves outboard from the sheet of print media to allow the sheet of print media to fall onto the stack of printed media, wherein the plurality of clamps sequentially pin the sheet of print media to the stack of printed media from a middle portion of the sheet of print media outward.

  • Patent number: 11176432
    Abstract: A finisher apparatus includes an accumulator to register a print medium of a print job in preparation for a finishing operation, memory to store an attribute of the print job, and a processor coupled to the accumulator and the memory. The processor is to execute instructions. The instructions are to control the accumulator based on the attribute of the print job.

  • Patent number: 10981740
    Abstract: A media registration system including a track to transport media in a transport direction from an intake end to a registration end, and a pivot shaft. A translator to register media in a lateral direction to the transport direction includes a translation element operatively coupled to the track and moveable along a translation axis in the lateral direction, and a driver to drive the translation element a translation distance along the translation axis to rotate the track about the pivot shaft to move the registration end a selected registration distance in the lateral direction, the translation distance proportional to the selected registration distance.

  • Patent number: 10678487
    Abstract: An example of apparatus to adjust an offset is provided. The apparatus also includes a printing device to generate a plurality of print jobs. The apparatus also includes an output bin to catch the plurality of print jobs. The apparatus includes a motor to move the output bin, wherein the output bin alternates between a first position and a second position between each print job of the plurality of print jobs. The apparatus also includes a controller to control the motor, wherein the controller is to update the position data based on the sensor data to provide uninterrupted operation of the printing device after the sensor detects the obstacle.

  • Patent number: 10500848
    Abstract: A printer includes a printhead assembly, a service station assembly, and a controller. The printhead assembly includes nozzles to eject fluid drops. The nozzles are divided into a least two groups with each group assigned a burst drop count, a post-burst delay, and a burst order. The service station assembly is to receive fluid ejected from the nozzles during spits. The controller is to control a spit of the printhead assembly by ejecting fluid from the nozzles of each group based on the burst drop count, the post-burst delay, and the burst order of each group until a target drop count for the spit is reached.
