Patent number: 9751348Abstract: A method for detecting a demountable accessory in an image-forming device is disclosed. The image-forming device comprises a controller, a print platen suitable for receiving a substrate, and a handling mechanism. The print platen has an optical sensor associated therewith adapted to capture an image of an item on the print platen. A first image is captured. The handling mechanism carries out an adjustment action suitable for adjusting the position of the substrate on the print platen. A second image is captured. The first and second images are analyzed to identify any changes and of the captured images is analyzed to detect an accessory identifier.
