Modular printer having narrow print zone

摘要

A modular printer includes: (a) a media feed path defining a media feed direction; (b) a first printer module suspended over the media feed path; and (c) a second printer module suspended over the media feed path and at least partially overlapping the first printer module in the media feed direction. The first and second printer modules have respective first and second printheads and maintenance assemblies. The first and second printheads are relatively proximal to each other with respect to the media feed direction, and the first and second maintenance assemblies are relatively distal from each other with respect to the media feed direction.
