Patent number: 8690314Abstract: A media transport method includes applying a nominal tension to a media extending between and in contact with a media drive roller of a drive roller assembly and a media output roller of an output roller assembly by the media output roller. The media transport method also includes advancing the media toward and away from a media support member disposed between the media drive roller and the media output roller and in contact with the media by the media drive roller. The media transport method also includes determining whether the media drive roller is in a rotating state within a predetermined time period after being in a non-rotating state by a restart period determination module and a kinematic condition exists corresponding to a non-synchronized state between rotation of the media drive roller and the media output roller by a kinetic condition determination module.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2012Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Raimon Castells De Monet, Daniel Gutiérrez Garcia, Xavier Domingo Reguant
