DRYSTAR AXYS
Functional Description
The Drystar AXYS consists of two functional blocks: a controller and a print
engine.
Q The controller
The controller captures the incoming data and stores the image.
The controller composes the different images and generates the appropriate
print engine control signals.
Q The print engine
The print engine receives the image data from the controller, drives the film
through the device and produces black & white hardcopy prints.
The figure below illustrates how the film is transported through the printer
