Abstract
According to an example, a method comprises unwinding a print media from an input roller toward a printing station. The printed print media is wound onto an output roller. The printed print media is unwound from the output roller toward the printing station.
Claims14
A method comprising:
- unwinding a print media from an input roller immediately toward an input of a printing station, wherein the printing station comprises the input and an output;
- winding printed print media from an output of the printing station immediately onto an output roller;
- unwinding the printed print media from the output roller immediately toward the input of the printing station;
- and
- winding the printed print media around the input roller.
2 more elements
A printing system comprising:
- a first roller to receive a print media;
- a first loader to load a first edge of the print media from the first roller into a print path to advance the print media along the print path immediately toward an input of a print engine;
- a second roller to receive print media immediately from an output of the print engine;
- and
- a second loader to load a second edge of the print media from the second roller into the print path to advance the print media along the print path immediately toward the input of the print engine and, subsequently, toward the first roller for winding the printed print media around the input roller.
2 more elements
A media handling device comprising:
- first and second rollers provided on the same side of the media handing device;
- each of the first and second rollers to receive a substrate, wherein the second roller is to receive a substrate from the first roller;
- and
- a threading module to load an edge of the substrate disposed on the first and second rollers immediately toward an input of a print engine, wherein the threading module is to load a first edge of the substrate from the first roller toward the print engine, and a second, opposite, edge of the substrate from the second roller immediately toward the input of the print engine and, subsequently, toward the first roller for winding the substrate, starting with the first edge, around the first roller.
