    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a print head maintenance cartridge, a printing device and a method of controlling a wiping subsystem of a print head maintenance cartridge. The print head maintenance cartridge comprises a wiping subsystem with a wiping material to wipe a print head; a clean material roll, wherein a clean part of the wiping material is rolled up on the clean material roll at least in part; a brake to generate a first brake force applied to the wiping material; and a friction element to generate a second brake force applied to the wiping material, wherein the friction element compensates at least in part a change in the first brake force to control a total brake force, wherein the total brake force is the sum of the first and second brake forces.

    Abstract: A media stacker (100) comprises a stacking platform (102), a feed mechanism (104), a media arresting mechanism (106) and a controller (108). The feed mechanism conveys media sheets for dispensing onto the stacking platform, wherein the media sheets are dispensed onto the stacking platform with a momentum imparted by the feed mechanism. The media arresting mechanism reduces the momentum of media sheets. The controller determines that a trailing edge of a media sheet is to be dispensed onto the stacking platform, and further control the media arresting apparatus to reduce the momentum of the media sheet in response to the determination.
