Abstract

A printer which prints information on articles such as filter cartridge assemblies, minimizes ink splattering and increases speed by shielding the lower portion of ink pickup rollers with an ink shielding plate. By utilizing the ink shielding plate, the speed at which the printer operates is doubled and cleanup of splattered ink is minimized.
