Abstract
Various embodiments are directed to printing apparatuses and methods of operating the same. In various embodiments, a method of operating a printing apparatus to generate to generate an alert signal corresponding to a detected operating condition associated with the printing apparatus comprises selectively operating a drive component to generate an alert signal corresponding to a detected operating condition defined by the printing apparatus, the alert signal being defined by a vibration of the printing apparatus, wherein the drive component is configured to be operably engaged with a print media disposed within the printing apparatus such that the operation of the drive component causes a corresponding movement of the print media along a printing path defined by the printing apparatus; and wherein an operation of the drive component is defined at least in part by a rotation of the drive component in one or more rotational directions about a central axis.
