ABSTRACT:
An ink jet printer mechanism is disclosed in which a print receiving medium is supported in a clamp in a printing station and a print head is traversed through the printing station. A service station for the print head is provided adjacent the printing station and the print head is traversed to the service station between printing operations. The service station includes a carriage which is movable by a drive motor to bring capping and wiping elements into engagement with the print head. A mechanical linkage from the carriage opens the clamp when the capping element is aligned for engagement with the print head.
