Functional description
The Drystar 4500 consists of two functional blocks: a controller and a print
engine.
The controller (gray section in the diagram below)
captures the incoming analog or digital data via an input interface and
•
stores the data on a hard disk,
composes the different images, and
•
generates the appropriate print engine control signals.
•
The print engine receives the image data from the controller, drives the film
through the device and makes black & white prints.
The diagram below shows how the film is transported through the printer.
