Definitions

  • the present invention relates to ink jet printers, and more particularly to an ink jet printer for use in printing digital photographic images.
  • Digital photographic images provide significant advantages over conventional photographic images in that they can be manipulated, stored, retrieved, and transmitted using digital computer and data communication technology.
  • Digital photographic images can be generated either by scanning photographic images captured on conventional photographic film, or directly by digital cameras employing solid state image sensors. Hard copy display prints of digital color photographic images are presently produced using thermal printers, electrographic printers, scanners for exposing conventional silver halide photographic paper, and ink jet printers.
  • thermal printing is limited by printing speed and cost of materials
  • electrography is limited by equipment cost and complexity. It appears therefore that ink jet printing technology may be the best candidate to offer an improvement over scanned silver halide printers for digital consumer photofinishing.
  • An ink jet printer for making photographic prints includes at least one paper supply for holding a supply of print paper and a sheet paper transport belt arranged to receive sheets of print paper from the at least one paper supply and transport the sheets through the printer.
  • a back printer is located between the at least one paper supply and the paper transport belt for applying back prints to the print paper.
  • a full print width color ink jet print head located over a first portion of the transport belt for printing an image on a paper sheet.
  • An image sensor located in front of the ink jet print head detects the edges of the paper sheet being transported under the print head and a controller connected to the image sensor generates a digital mask representing the area of the paper and applies the digital mask to a digital image being printed, thereby preventing overspill printing onto the belt.
  • a paper dryer is located over a second portion of the transport belt, the paper dryer including a source of flowing air for drying the ink image on the paper.
  • the ink jet printer according to the present invention has the following advantages. Shrinkage of the printing paper in the drying section has no influence on the print area. There is no waste at the cutting station.
  • the printer has simplified maintenance compared to a roll paper printer that cuts the paper after printing. Perfect borderless prints can be produced.
  • the printing rate is compatible with the needs of commercial photofinishing operations.
  • an ink jet printer for printing photographic images according to the present invention includes a roll paper supply 12 supported by a holder 13, for supplying a web 14 of photographic ink jet print paper.
  • the photographic ink jet print paper comprises for example, 200 to 300 gram/m 2 weight, 10 cm wide white paper having a special surface treatment for receiving ink from the ink jet printer as is known in the art.
  • the web of paper 14 is supplied to a first pair of driven metering rollers 16.
  • a cut station 20 includes metering rollers 22 and a cutter 24.
  • the cutter 24 includes a circular knife 400 that is moved across the paper path against a fixed blade 402.
  • the paper is held in a fixed position by a paper holder 404.
  • the circular knife 400 is mounted on a knife carriage 406, which is supported for sliding movement on a shaft 408.
  • a cam 410 mounted on the knife carriage 406 engages the paper holder 404 to press the paper against the fixed blade 402 as the knife carriage is moved across the paper 14.
  • the cut station 20 cuts individual sheets 25 of photographic ink jet print paper from the web 14. Prior to cutting, the paper is advanced by metering roller 22 until a sensor 412 detects the leading edge of the paper web 14. The paper web 14 is then accurately advanced a further distance by metering rollers 22 and stopped.
  • a back printer 26 is located between the metering rollers 16 and the metering rollers 22 for printing information onto the back of web 14.
  • the back printer 26 is, for example a low resolution monochrome ink jet print head employing rapid drying ink. Alternatively, the back printer 26 can be an impact printer.
  • the back printer 26 prints information such as order and frame number on the back side of the web 14.
  • a pair of transport rollers 28 are located after the cutter 24 for delivering the cut sheets 25 of photographic ink jet print paper to a vacuum belt transport.
  • the vacuum belt transport includes a first section having a belt 30 and a vacuum plenum 33, and a second section having a belt 31 and two independently controllable vacuum plenums 34 and 35.
  • the first portion of the vacuum belt transport conveys the cut sheets 25 under the print head 36.
  • the second portion of the vacuum belt transport includes a buffer zone controlled by vacuum plenum 34 to isolate the motion of the second vacuum belt transport from the first while a sheet is being printed by turning the vacuum off in plenum 34 until the previous picture is printed.
  • the length of the buffer zone is preferably as long as the longest expected print, e.g. 30 cm for a 10 cm wide panoramic print.
  • the vacuum belt 30 is perforated with holes 30' and is mounted on a pair of vacuum belt support and drive rollers 100, 102.
  • Vacuum belt drive roller 102 is driven by a motor 104 to drive the vacuum belt 30.
  • Roller 100 is mounted in a bracket 106 for rotation about its axis 108.
  • Bracket 106 is mounted for rotation about an axis 110 perpendicular to the rotation of the roller axis 108 for controlling the tracking of belt 30 on the rollers 100 and 102.
  • a bracket drive motor 112 is coupled to bracket 106, for example by a ball and lead screw drive 114 for rotating the bracket 106 slightly about axis 110, thereby causing belt 30 to move to the right or left on roller 100.
  • a vacuum belt edge sensor 116 such as an light emitting diode/photosensor pair, is mounted for sensing the edge 118 of belt 30, to provide feedback to a controller (described below) for accurately controlling the position of belt 30 on the rollers 100 and 102.
  • a full width, high resolution color ink jet print head 36 is located over the first vacuum belt transport 30 for printing a color photographic image onto the cut sheets 25 as they are transported under the print head by vacuum belt transport 30.
  • the minimum distance from the transport roller 28 to the print head 36 is slightly greater than the maximum length of a cut sheet (e.g. 30 cm for a 10 cm wide panoramic print).
  • the full width ink jet print head 36 is, for the example, a print head of the type shown in U.S. Patent No. 5,812,162, issued Sep. 22, 1998 to Silverbrook.
  • the print head is slightly wider than the cut sheets 25 (e.g. 12 cm wide) and has a printing resolution of 1200 dpi.
  • the preferred ink jet print head 36 includes a plurality of print head components 38, 40, 42, 44, each supplied with a different color of ink, for example cyan, magenta, yellow, and black.
  • the ink jet print head is capable of printing at a paper transport speed of 5 cm per second, or about 1000 prints per hour.
  • An image sensor 46 such as a linear CCD image sensor, is located in front of the ink jet print head 36 for sensing all four edges of the cut paper sheets 25 as they are transported by vacuum belt transport 30 under the print head 36.
  • the linear image sensor senses a line that is as wide as the print head 36 (i.e. slightly wider that the sheets of print paper 25) and has a resolution of, for example 2700 pixels.
  • a suitable linear image sensor arrangement is shown.
  • the image sensor 46 includes a housing 500, a lens 502 for focusing an image of the paper and transport belt onto an image sensing module 504, and a light source 506 for illuminating the paper on the transport belt.
  • a suitable image sensing module 504 is the ILX533K CCD color linear image sensor sold by Sony Corporation. An example of such an arrangement is shown in published PCT patent application 96/38370.
  • a paper dryer 48 including a plurality of air knives 50 is located over the second plenum 35 of belt transport 31 for drying the inked images before they reach the end of the belt transport.
  • the air knives 50 include a plenum 52 having an input 51 for heated-compressed air, an exit slot 53, and a baffle 55 for equalizing the pressure of the air along the exit slot 53.
  • a paper transport speed of 5 cm/second and an air flow to the air knives of about 10 meters/sec, heated to not more than 80 C°, prints printed with a water base ink can be dried in approximately 5 seconds.
  • the paper dryer 48 is therefore about 25 cm long.
  • a belt cleaning station 57 for cleaning paper dust and any overspilled ink from the transport belt 30 is provided on the side of the belt transport opposite to the ink jet print head 36.
  • the cleaning station comprises a cleaning head 800 that is as wide as the belt 30.
  • the cleaning head 800 has an external channel 802 for delivering a flow of pressurized air to the surface of the belt 30 and an internal channel 804 for collecting the flow of air, along with any dust or debris dislodged from the belt, and delivering the collected air to a filter (not shown).
  • the cleaning station is described in more detail in Applicants copending German patent application No. 199 14 563.6.
  • Control electronics 54 including a digital processor such as a micro computer, is connected to the various components of the printer for controlling the operation of the printer 10.
  • the operation of the printer 10, under control of control electronics 54, will now be described.
  • the control electronics receives digital image data, back print data, and print order instructions from an input device such as a film scanning station, or a digital image processing station (not shown).
  • the control electronics 54 commands the printer to meter the printing paper web 14 to the cutter 24 and print the back print information on the web 14 prior to the paper being cut.
  • the paper sheet 25, bearing the back print information, is then cut from the web 14 by cutter 24 and advanced to the vacuum belt transport 30.
  • the image sensor 46 detects the cut sheet 25 as it enters the vacuum belt.
  • the image of the cut sheet 25 is processed by the control electronics to detect the edges of the sheet 25, and create a print mask corresponding to the boundaries of the sheet.
  • the print mask is then applied to the digital image data, and the digital image data is supplied to the ink jet print head 36 by control electronics 54 to print the image up to the edges of the print sheet.
  • the sheets of printing paper are transported continuously past the ink jet print head 36. After being printed, the sheets pass through the print dryer 48, where the ink is dried, and the prints are delivered to a finishing station (not shown) where they are assembled into customer order envelopes.
  • the printer of Fig. 2 is provided with a second roll paper supply 12' supported by a holder 13' for supplying a web 14' of paper that is narrower than the web 14 (e.g. 9 cm wide).
  • the different sized paper webs 14 and 14' are selectively fed to cutter 24 under control of control electronics 54 depending upon the desired print size contained in the print order instructions.
  • control electronics 54 provides a means for switching between paper supplies.
  • Paper guides 56 and 56' are provided for guiding the paper metered by metering rollers 16 and 16' respectively into the metering rollers 22 of paper cutter 24.
  • the back printer 26 is located between the metering rollers 22 and the transport rollers 28.
  • the control electronics 54 functions as described above to form a print mask from the signal supplied sensor 46 that is combined with the digital image data so that overspill onto the vacuum transport belt is avoided.
  • FIG. 3 a further alternative embodiment of an ink jet printer according to the present invention will be described.
  • This embodiment like that shown in Fig. 2, has two paper supplies 58 and 58', but in this case the paper supplies are held by supports 61, 61' holding stacks of cut paper 60 and 60' having different sizes respectively.
  • Picking rollers 62 and 62' deliver sheets from the tops of the stacks to paper transport rollers 64 and 64' respectively, and thence to paper metering rollers 16.
  • the ink jet printers according to the invention are arranged to transport the paper in a linear fashion from paper supply, through the printer and the dryer, to the output. This arrangement results in a long, thin printer.
  • a printer layout is shown where the printing and drying components are arranged in parallel, and a print buffer 600 is arranged between the print head 36 and the dryer 48.
  • the print buffer 600 isolates the effects of the dryer 48 on the print head section of the paper transport and changes the direction of paper transport of the paper 360° to deliver the paper from the print head 36 to the dryer 48.
  • the buffer section 600 includes a first vacuum belt section 700 that is narrower than the smallest paper width (e.g.
  • a second section 702 extends in a direction perpendicular to the first section 700 for transporting the cut sheet 25 to a third section 704 that delivers the cut sheet to the vacuum belt 31 under dryer 48.
  • the belt transports are vacuum belt transports.
  • electrostatic belt transports can be used for the portions of the transport under the print head and the dryer. An example of an electrostatic transport useful with the present invention is shown in European Published application 0 887 196 A2.
