Abstract
A media transfer system comprising a media drive component and a vent. The media drive component supports and transfers a media in a drive direction. The vent directs air flow towards the leading edge of the media in the drive direction to exert a separating force on the leading edge of the media, the separating force acting on the media away from the media drive component.
Claims15
A media transfer system comprising:
- a media drive component to support and transfer a media in a drive direction;
- and
- a vent to direct air flow from above towards the leading edge of the media in the drive direction to exert a separating force on the leading edge of the media, the separating force acting on the media away from the media drive component.
A printing system comprising:
- a print head to transfer printing liquid onto a media;
- a media drive component to support and transfer the media in a drive direction;
- and
- a vent to direct air flow from above towards the leading edge of the media in the drive direction to exert a separating force on the leading edge of the media, the separating force acting on the media away from the media drive component at a downstream end of the media drive component.
A method for transferring media comprising:
- supporting and transferring a media in a drive direction on a media drive component;
- and
- directing air flow from above towards the leading edge of the media to exert a separating force on the leading edge of the media, the separating force acting on the media away from the media drive component.
