A device for processing media may include a system and method for loading and unloading consumable supplies of a media processing device, and more particularly, a system and method for providing a compact form factor media processing device which provides convenient access to the replaceable components of the media processing device. A media processing device may include a base and a lid hingedly attached to the base, moveable between a closed position in which the lid is secured to the base, and an open position. A cavity may be defined between the lid and the base, where the cavity is inaccessible when the lid is in the closed position and the cavity is accessible when the lid is in the open position. The media processing device may include a ribbon positioning assembly disposed within the cavity.

A near-infrared laser focusing lens and a laser printing device are provided. The lens comprises a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens and a fifth lens (L1, L2, L3, L4, L5) which are coaxially arranged along a transmission direction of incident light rays, wherein the first lens (L1) is a negative plane-concave lens; the second lens and the third lens (L2, L3) are positive biconvex lenses; and the fourth lens and the fifth lens (L4, L5) are positive meniscus lenses; and a concave surface (S2) of the first lens (L1) is opposite to the second lens (L2), and the middle parts of the fourth lens and the fifth lens (L4, L5) both reversely protrude towards the transmission direction of light beams. After the shapes and the relative locations of the lenses are designed, the near infrared light can be clearly imaged, and the geometrical aberration of the lens can be effectively corrected, so as to obtain a clear flat field. In addition, because of having a large relative aperture and visual field and a long working distance, the lens is a microscope objective simultaneously having a large visual field, a large relative aperture, a long working distance and a flat field, and is capable of improving printing precision and clarity, so that the color rendition is truer and the operation is more convenient.
