发明名称 Thermal printer edge compensation.
摘要 <p>A current-drive circuit is provided to drive each of forty electrodes (41). When selected, the circuit forces line (27) to a level of drive voltage (Vdr) minus a current-level reference voltage. A constant current is produced across resistor (25). Line (27) is connected through resistor (29a) to line (27a), which is the same point in the current-drive circuit of the adjoining electrode (41 a) on one side of electrode (41). Line (27) is similarly connected through resistor (29b) to line (27b), which is the same point in the current-drive circuit of the adjoining electrode (41b) on the opposite side of electrode (41). Selection of the drive circuit also connects line (27) to the associated electrode (41). An unselected drive circuit for an adjoining electrode, such as the one connected to drive electrode (41a), has line (27a) floating to the level dictated by Vdr through its resistor (25a), while its electrode (41) is disconnected. Current from the unselected circuit through resistor (29a) adds to the current in electrode (41), thereby eliminating lightened-edge printing from current spreading.</p>
