Abstract
A medium discharge device includes a loading stand configured to be loaded with a medium onto which a liquid was ejected by a printing device, a regulation unit that is movable between a regulation position at which a position of the medium discharged to the loading stand is regulated and a retraction position retracted from the regulation position, and a second control unit that controls the movement of the regulation unit. The second control unit determines the retraction position, based on an amount of the liquid ejected onto the medium by the printing device.
Claims13
A medium discharge device comprising:
- a loading stand configured to be loaded with a medium onto which a liquid was ejected by a liquid ejection device;
- a plate-like regulation unit configured to move between a regulation position at which a position of the medium discharged to the loading stand is regulated and a retraction position retracted from the regulation position;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the movement of the regulation unit, wherein
- the control unit determines the retraction position, based on an amount of the liquid ejected onto the medium by the liquid ejection device.
A control method for a medium discharge device including a loading stand configured to be loaded with a medium onto which a liquid was ejected by a liquid ejection device, and a plate-like regulation unit configured to move between a regulation position at which a position of the medium discharged to the loading stand is regulated and a retraction position retracted from the regulation position, the control method comprising:
- determining the retraction position, based on an amount of the liquid ejected onto the medium by the liquid ejection device.
A control method for a medium discharge device including a loading stand configured to be loaded with a medium, and a plate-like regulation unit configured to move between a regulation position at which a position of the medium discharged to the loading stand is regulated and a retraction position retracted from the regulation position, the control method comprising:
- determining the retraction position, based on a discharge speed of the medium discharged to the loading stand, and
- determining a regulation frequency at which the regulation unit is moved from the retraction position to the regulation position, based on the discharge speed of the medium.
