Abstract
In some examples, the disclosure describes a printing device that includes a processor resource, and a non-transitory memory resource storing machine-readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the processor resource to: estimate a drying time of a print medium received at an output roller from a print zone, activate the output roller at a first speed to move the print medium to an output tray in response to receiving the print medium from the print zone, alter a direction of the output roller to move the print medium toward a turn roller at a second speed based on the drying time of the print medium, and stop the output roller to prevent the print medium from reaching the turn roller for a period of time based on the drying time.
