Printhead Tilting Mechanism
To accommodate printhead maintenance, the printhead can be tilted
back away from the drum. (Refer to Figures 1-21 and 1-22.) This
creates room for the cap/wipe/purge assembly to be moved into
position in front of the printhead faceplate. The printhead tilts back
on its X-axis shaft that it travels on. The X-axis shaft is connected to
the head tilt arm. At the lower end of the arm is a cam-follower. The
cam follower (and tilt arm) respond to the movement of the head tilt
cam gear. As the gear rotates, the arm follows the motion and tilts
back the printhead.
