Abstract
Various embodiments illustrated herein disclose a printing apparatus comprising a media supply spool configured to supply print media along a media path. The printing apparatus further comprises a first media sensor positioned in a first plane in the printing apparatus. Further, the printing apparatus comprises a second media sensor positioned in a second plane in the printing apparatus. Additionally, the printing apparatus comprises a first media guide defining a section of the media path, wherein extremities of the first media guide are positioned to be at a negative offset from the second plane.

A media guide assembly for a printing apparatus, the media guide assembly comprising:
- a back spine;
- a first media guide configured to define a first section of a media path, wherein the first media guide comprises an arch profile, wherein the first media guide comprises a first planar section and a second planar section;
- and
- a first media sensor configured to generate signals indicative of a location of a print media, wherein the first planar section and the second planar section are positioned above the first media sensor along a vertical axis of the printing apparatus, causing the print media to be in a contact with the first media sensor as the print media traverses along the media path.
