The printer mechanism can be broadly divided into two major components: the ink passage and paper path.
The ink passage consists of the ink tank unit, the carriage unit having a printhead, the purge unit, the maintenance cartridge, and the tube unit which are used to
supply, circulate, and suck ink.
The paper path consists of the feed roller unit to support one type of media feeding, transport, and ejection.
This section provides an overview of these mechanical components.
