Abstract
A printer uses at least two centrally positioned single nip de-skew, lateral registration, and process direction registration devices to remove skew, laterally register, and register in the process direction substrates moving along a media transport path. The single nip de-skew, lateral registration, and process direction registration devices include a fixed roller having a low coefficient of friction and a length longer than a rotating wheel that forms a nip with the fixed roller having a high coefficient of friction to enable an actuator to move the rotating wheel along the fixed roller to laterally register and de-skew substrates.
