Abstract
A printing apparatus is disclosed herein. The apparatus comprises a platen to hold a media thereon, the media moveable along a media path direction; a displacement mechanism to move the media over the platen and along the media path direction; a media advancement sensor; and a controller. The controller to determine a media advancement prediction based on an operational parameter of the displacement mechanism; determine a read media advancement corresponding to the media advancement prediction; determine a sensor reading failure based on the media advancement prediction and the read media advancement; determine that the media advanced a distance corresponding to the media advancement prediction if the sensor reading failure is detected; determine that the media advanced a distance corresponding to the read media advancement if the sensor reading failure is not detected; and to adjust the position of the media by controlling the displacement mechanism to move the media based on the determined media advanced distance.
