A print device includes a head unit holding a heat sink, a head holding member holding the head unit, a platen roller, a support shaft supporting the head holding member to pivot between a close position and a separated position, an urging member, and an adjustment mechanism including an adjustment shaft and an eccentric cam. The separated position is a position where the print head is separated from the platen roller than the close position. The urging member urges the head unit and applies a pressing load pressing the print head against the platen roller. The eccentric cam rotates around the adjustment shaft and coming into contact with the head holding member in a state of being offset with respect to the adjustment shaft. The adjustment mechanism adjusts a position of heating elements of the heat sink with respect to the platen roller by rotating of the eccentric cam.

Disclosed is a label printer having a driven carrier tape drawing roller; and a guide unit for the carrier tape, said guide unit being pivotably supported about a pivot axle between an operating position and an insertion position for the carrier tape, wherein the guide unit includes a counter-element to the printhead, configured to hold the carrier tape with the labels in contact with the printhead in the operating position; wherein, in the operating position, the carrier tape is led between the printhead and the counter-element and between the carrier tape drawing roller and the respective carrier tape pressure roller and can in particular be transported along a predefined carrier tape transport path; and wherein, in the insertion position of the guide unit, the counter-element is pivoted away from the printhead and the respective carrier tape pressure roller is pivoted away from the carrier tape drawing roller.

Provided is a printing device that can accurately perform printing on a recording medium. The printing device includes: a frame member disposed to surround a nail tip; a printing unit configured to perform printing on the nail tip surrounded by the frame member; a communication part configured to acquire print information which is generated based on an image obtained by capturing the frame member and the nail tip and indicates a layout of printing to be applied to the nail tip in a printable region defined by the frame member; and a print control part configured to control the printing unit based on the acquired print information.

The techniques described herein relate generally to reconfigurable support pads for fabric image transfers. Specifically, according to one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, reconfigurable support pads are provided for fabric image transfers (e.g., silk screening, heat transfer, direct-to-garment printing, etc.). In particular, the techniques herein provide for various adjustable configurations of portions of the fabric substrate support, which may be changed for different thicknesses of garments, and more particularly, that allow for varied thicknesses found on the same garment. For example, by configuring the support in a first “flat” configuration, a plain tee shirt may lay flat, and then configuring the support in a second “two-tiered” configuration, with one portion lower (or higher) than the other, allows for a hoodie with a thicker pocket portion at the “belly” of the garment to also lay flat. Other configurations are also available, whether manually adjusted or else dynamically controlled (e.g., using actuators) based on the type of garment selected on an associated control system.

A liquid discharge apparatus includes an apparatus body, a liquid discharge device configured to discharge a liquid, a carriage in the apparatus body, the carriage configured to movably mount the liquid discharge device, a first storage container detachably attached to the carriage, the first storage container configured to store a first liquid, and a second storage container detachably attached to the apparatus body, the second storage container configured to store a second liquid different from the first liquid.

For printing to a recording medium in the form of a web that is moved in a horizontal direction to the printing position by a web carriage. There, the recording medium is raised up to the print heads. To clean the print heads, a maintenance carriage is used that is moved horizontally into a maintenance position below the print bars. There, a cleaning unit with covering caps is then driven upward to the print heads in order to either place a covering cap onto the print heads or clean the print heads. The web carriage and the maintenance unit are moved only in a horizontal direction while the printing unit remains stationary.

Provided is a printing device in which a height position of an object can be accurately adjusted with a simple configuration. The printing device includes: a base part having an opening on a side and multiple first slits and second slits disposed side by side in an up-down direction; a support member for supporting the object, slidably engaged with any first and second slit among the first and second slits in a lateral direction from the opening side and being slidable through the opening between a pull-out position pulled out from the base part and a storage position stored in the base part; and a head part disposed above the support member at the storage position and ejecting ink toward the object supported by the support member.

A platen conveyance device includes a first conveyance path, a platen supporter, a second conveyance path, and a positioner. The first conveyance path is configured to convey a platen to a pretreatment device. The platen supporter is configured to support the platen conveyed by the first conveyance path. The second conveyance path is provided with the platen supporter. The second conveyance path is configured to convey the platen supporter to a printer. The positioner is configured to position the platen supported by the platen supporter at a prescribed printing position in a horizontal direction.
