Introduction
This chapter explains the mechanical and electrical theory of operation
of the ENCAD NovaJet 800 Series Color Inkjet printers.
The NovaJet 800 Series V-8 print engine has eight ink cartridges,
eight 500-milliliter ink reservoirs and 12 independent ink lines. The
cartridges are housed in a torque-free floating carriage assembly that
eliminates micro banding by providing vibration-free printing. To ensure
that prints are dry for unattended printing, the printer has a dynamic
thermal drying system. The printer includes an optically controlled take
up and feed system as standard equipment. Printer hardware features
also include an easy-to-read LCD display. An integrated 100BaseT
network connection provides seamless network and workstation
communication. The printer power switch is located at the right rear
of the printer.
The NovaJet 800 Series is a PowerPC 48MHz microprocessor-
based digital printer that receives plotting instructions from a host
computer through the Centronics parallel interface.
