Abstract
When printing in different medias edge holders are used to prevent that the edges of the substrate lift up
creating media‐crashes with the carriage and causing damages to the print‐heads. Till now, our printers
have one design of edge holders when printing on the normal platen, and another design of edge holders
to be used when printing with the ink collector. The ink collector is a kit used when printing on porous
materials.
This disclosure presents a versatile design of edge holder that can be used in both situations, platen and
ink collector. The customer does not need any more two different sets of edge holders, same design can
be used with normal platen and with ink collector. The installation procedure and customer’ experience
is also the same for normal platen and ink collector.
