ABSTRACT:
A wiper assembly for an ink-jet printer includes a sled subassembly movable between retracted and activated positions. A wiper is mounted on the sled subassembly to clean a nozzle section of the ink-jet print head when the sled subassembly is in an activated position. A movable rack supports and moves the sled subassembly between the retracted and activated positions. An adjustable position reference lever is operably mounted adjacent to the rack to establish a reference travel position for the sled subassembly between the retracted and activated positions. The position reference lever is capable upon adjustment of changing the reference travel position. In its preferred form, the position reference lever consists of a primary lever and a secondary lever movably connected to the primary lever. The secondary lever defines the reference travel position for the wiper assembly between the retracted and activated positions and is movable relative to the primary lever to change the reference travel position.
