  • Publication number: 20180257402
    Abstract: A printer comprising: a fixed printhead assembly defining a print zone; an input transport assembly for feeding print media along a media path and into the print zone, the input transport assembly being positioned upstream of the print zone; and an exit transport assembly positioned downstream of the print zone for receiving the print media from the print zone. The input transport assembly exerts a higher gripping force on the print media than the exit transport assembly and the exit transport assembly is configured to provide a higher transport speed than the input transport assembly, such that the print media has a degree of slippage relative to the exit transport assembly.
