  • Patent number: 10286704
    Abstract: In a method for forming braille text on a recording medium, the braille text includes a plurality of cells with one or more dots included in each cell, and at least one of the cells includes a plurality of dots. The method includes discharging a photocurable ink onto the recording medium and curing with light the discharged photocurable ink, to form a print layer on the recording medium, and discharging a photocurable ink onto the print layer and curing with light the discharged photocurable ink, to form at least one additional print layer on the print layer. Resultant braille text is formed by the print layer and the at least one additional print layer, and the resultant braille text has an intra-cell dot-to-dot spacing of about 0.38 mm or more and about 1.32 mm or less.

  • Patent number: 10214034
    Abstract: An inkjet recording device allows a recording medium to be set easily, and prevents the recording medium from being warped so that printing quality is not lowered. An inkjet printer includes a bed including a surface that supports a recording medium, and a pivoting device that pivots the bed around a horizontal axis to locate the bed horizontally or vertically or pivots the bed around the horizontal axis to incline the bed with respect to a horizontal plane. The inkjet printer also includes a pair of guide rails provided on the bed and extending in an X direction and a movable member extending in a Y direction, engaged with the pair of guide rails and slidable on the pair of guide rails to move in the X direction.

  • Publication number: 20180326769
    Abstract: A method for forming braille text on a recording medium, the braille text including cells with one or more dots in each cell, and at least one of the cells includes a plurality of dots therein, includes discharging a photocurable ink onto the recording medium and curing the discharged photocurable ink with light, thus forming a print layer on the recording medium, and discharging a photocurable ink onto the print layer and curing the discharged photocurable ink with light, thus forming one or more additional print layers on the print layer. The braille text has an intra-cell dot-to-dot spacing of about 0.38 mm or more and about 1.32 mm or less.
