The mechanical components of the printer can be broadly divided into an ink passage and a paper pass.
The ink passage consists mainly of ink tank assembly [1] and a printhead mounted on carriage unit [2], purge assembly [3] and maintenance cartridge [4]. Its func-
tions are to supply, circulate and suck inks and more.
The paper pass comprises an feed assembly [5], upper roll media pick-up assembly [6], a lower roll media pick-up assembly [7] and more to feed paper in three
different ways, and transport and eject the paper.
(lower roll unit is iPF820 only.)
A summary description of each mechanical component is given below.
