    摘要: A cartridge identification system for identifying a characteristic of a cartridge inserted in a printer. The cartridge identification system comprises an identification circuit which is triggered by an electrical connection between a printed circuit board coupled to the cartridge and a plurality of spring contacts in a cartridge receptacle in the printer. An electrical logic signal is read by an internal processing unit, which determines a characteristic of the cartridge based on the logic signal.

    摘要: A printer, suitable for use in a hand held printer, having a dual direction drive mechanism for driving ink ribbon in a forward feed direction and a reverse feed direction. The drive mechanism is mounted in a printer body, and includes a stationary gear drive assembly engageable with a pivotal drive gear assembly having a forward feed position and a reverse feed direction.

    摘要: A printer cartridge suitable for use in a cartridge-based printer houses and dispenses a roll of label media. The cartridge includes a housing having a top wall and a bottom wall. A yoke pivotally mounted between the top and bottom walls for pivotable movement about a pivot axis includes a label media supply shaft for holding a roll of label media. The label media supply shaft has a longitudinal axis spaced from, and parallel, to the pivot axis. A label media drive roller is rotatably mounted between the top and bottom walls, and a biasing means biases the yoke toward the label media drive roller to maintain the roll of label media in contact with the label media drive roller and defines a beginning of a media path. In one embodiment, the yoke is adjustable to accommodate different label media widths.

    摘要: A cutter mechanism for use in a printer. The cutter mechanism includes a base and a cutter blade slidably fixed relative to the base. The cutter blade is movable along a cutting path in a first direction between a retracted position and a forward position through a cutting position. A breaker bar is fixed relative to the cutter blade, and is spaced from the cutter blade when the cutter blade is in the retracted position to define a web path between the breaker bar and the base. A first biasing member urges the blade in a second direction away from the breaker bar to completely disengage the blade from the breaker bar. The second direction is not parallel to the first direction.

    摘要: A printer mechanism having a receptacle for receiving a printer cartridge therein. A print head is disposed in the receptacle, and a platen roller is rotatable about a roller axis. The platen roller is movable between a printing position in close proximity to the print head for urging labeling media and ink ribbon toward the print head and a nonprinting position in which the roller platen is spaced a distance from said print head to allow the labeling media and ink ribbon to be slipped therebetween. A platen roller gear is coaxial with said platen roller, and is engaged with a drive gear when the platen roller is in the printing position and disengaged from the platen roller gear when the platen roller is in the nonprinting position. A lever is linked to the platen roller, and is movable between a lock position and an unlock position. Movement of the lever from the unlock position to the lock position moves the platen roller from the nonprinting position to the printing position and extends the lever over the receptacle to lock a printer cartridge received therein.

    摘要: A label media for use in a label media printer forms dynamically sized label markers. The label media includes a continuous tube affixed to a length of a carrier web. Indicia is printed on the tube which is then cut to a desired length that accommodates the indicia printed thereon to dynamically form the wire marker.
