Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0202345A1] A pump assembly for a print engine, where the print engine has a printhead (590) employing a fluid cleaning arrangement such as filtered air, includes a housing defining a fluid inlet (526) and a fluid outlet (528). An impeller (522) is arranged within the housing for drawing fluid through the inlet and ejecting it through the outlet. A drive motor (530) rotatably drives the impeller. The drive motor is also the drive motor of the print engine, which controls feeding of print media (504) to the printhead for printing of an image on the print media.
