Print test apparatus comprising:
- a reusable cleanable surface, which, in use of the print test apparatus, is to be provided around at least a portion of a surface of an impression cylinder of a print apparatus;
- and
- cleaning apparatus, to clean the reusable cleanable surface.
Print apparatus comprising:
- an electrostatic imaging plate;
- an intermediate transfer member;
- an impression cylinder;
- an endless cleanable medium;
- and
- a cleaning station to clean the endless cleanable medium;
- wherein, in a first mode of operation, the intermediate transfer member is to transfer an image from the electrostatic imaging plate to a printable substrate via the intermediate transfer member wherein the printable substrate is provided between the impression cylinder and the intermediate transfer member;
- and, in a second mode of operation, the intermediate transfer member is to transfer an image from the electrostatic imaging plate to the endless cleanable medium via the intermediate transfer member.
