10-2 Functional Overview
HP DesignJet 430, 450C and 455CA Printers
Introduction
The HP DesignJets 430, 450C and 455CA follow on from and replace the
DesignJet 330 and 350C. The HP DesignJets 430, 450C and 455CA (like the
DesignJets 230, 330, 250C and 350C) have inherited much of the system
architecture and features of the DesignJet 220. Their writing system,
however, is based on that of the DesignJet 650C.
This chapter describes some of the main features of the HP DesignJets 430,
450C and 455CA. Before reading it, read the functional overview of the
DesignJet 220 ' HP DesignJet 220 and HP DesignJet 200 Printers - Service
Manual," part number C3187Ć90000.

Service Manual," part number C2858Ć90000 Rev B).
Roll Media
When a rollĆfeed assembly is installed on the Printer, roll media can be used.
The rollĆfeed assembly consists of:
D Two rollĆfeed components.
D A spindle.
D Two media stops.
The rollĆfeed assembly is installed below the sheet media entry path, to allow
the ease of loading for sheet media. When roll media is loaded into the
Printer, it is passed around a diverter roll, which optimizes the infeed path to
the Printer. Once a plot/print is completed, a builtĆin cutter automatically
slides across the paper to cut the plot/print from the roll.
Removing Static Charge from the Media
An antiĆstatic brush located under the entry platen prevents static charge
from building up on the media. A charge can cause the media to stick to itself
and jam the Printer.
