Abstract

See full text

A system for printing with a plurality of removable print/cartridges includes a carriage constructed to traverse a linear print zone and removably support such print/cartridges. A plurality of referencing surfaces are located respectively on each of the carriages, parallel to the direction of the carriages traverse. The carriage includes fastening mechanisms for moving supported print/cartridges into a precise detent relation with respective referencing surfaces of the carriages. The referencing surface portions of the system are adjustable to allow selective physical indexing of print/cartridges, either in registered or interlaced printing positions. A transverse location detection system detects and stores the relative transverse locations of the print/cartridges in either position so that print control electronics can coordinate the output of the print/cartridges transversely.
