According to one embodiment, a paper conveyance device includes a conveyance unit configured to convey long cut paper in a longitudinal direction, a measuring unit configured to measure a length of the cut paper in the longitudinal direction, which is conveyed by the conveyance unit, a reversal mechanism that reverses a front surface and a back surface to each other with conveying the cut paper, and a reversal unit configured to convey the cut paper in the reversal mechanism. The reversal unit conveys the cut paper at a first speed when the measuring unit measures that the length of the cut paper is less than a predetermined length, and conveys the cut paper at a second speed slower than the first speed when the measuring unit measures that the length of the cut paper is equal to or more than the predetermined length.

Systems and methods for laser assisted deposition of a material includes a printing unit configured to print individual dot-like portions of a material from a donor substrate onto a receiving substrate, and a vacuum shuttle configured to be positionable in two or three dimensions between the printing unit and the donor substrate and to engage the donor substrate upon application of a vacuum to the vacuum shuttle. The printing unit may include a coating system and a laser. The vacuum shuttle includes a vacuum channel about its periphery and an open window through which the laser irradiates the donor substrate. The vacuum channel is fluidly coupled to a vacuum inlet for receiving a vacuum suction, thereby to engage the donor substrate and hold it taught against the bottom of the vacuum shuttle in operation. The vacuum shuttle may also include one or more distance measuring sensors and fiducial markers.

In a large format printer, a print head which includes a plurality of drive elements is provided with a head drive circuit which applies a voltage which is based on a first drive signal, a second drive signal, and a reference voltage signal which are input from a control circuit via a cable to the drive element. In a first flat cable and a second flat cable which configure the cable and which are in an overlapping state, a first wire which propagates a first drive signal is adjacent to a third wire which propagates a reference voltage signal, a second wire which propagates a second drive signal is adjacent to a third wire, and, in an overlapping direction, the first wire faces the third wire and the second wire faces the third wire.
