Image forming apparatus and methods are disclosed which include an intermediate transfer member to transfer images to media, an impression roller including a gripping device to receive the media, and a determination module to determine the length of the media held by the at least one gripper unit based on respective detections by first and second set of sensors.

Image forming apparatuses and methods thereof

A method of error correction in a printing system includes engaging a sheet of print media with a perfector arm and detecting a relative position of the perfecter arm with respect to the sheet of print media when the perfecter arm has engaged the sheet of print media, the detecting being performed using a homing sensor that is configured to sense the perfecter arm while the perfecter arm is engaged with the sheet of print media. The relative position of the perfecter arm with respect to the sheet of print media is compared with an expected relative position and any difference between the relative position and expected relative position is compensated for when feeding the sheet of print media with the perfector arm to a print engine.

Error correction in printing systems

In one embodiment, a measuring tool includes a transparent sheet; a first pattern of markings on the transparent sheet for measuring characteristics of a test sheet; and a second pattern of markings on the transparent sheet for measuring characteristics of a target image printed on the test sheet. In another embodiment, a measuring tool includes a transparent substrate and a reference image on the transparent substrate. The reference image includes an alignment pattern for aligning the reference image, a first scale for measuring distances in a first direction, a second scale for measuring distances in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and a skew pattern for measuring perpendicularity.
