User interface for aligning a plurality of print heads in a printing apparatus

摘要

A user interface for a printing apparatus, the printing apparatus including a plurality of print heads and an apparatus control system, each of the plurality of print heads being movable in a first direction, includes a display including a window. The display is configured to be connected to the apparatus control system and arranged to visualize an aligning of the plurality of print heads in the window. The window includes, for each pair of neighboring print heads in the first direction of the plurality of print heads, a user operable digital object. A color of the user operable digital object is changeable by means of a color function on the window for selecting a color for the user operable digital object. Upon a change of the color of the user operable digital object by means of the color function, a change in a distance in the first direction between the corresponding pair of neighboring print heads is determined, the change in distance being proportional to the change of the color of the user operable digital object.
