Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To provide a printer excellent in both of the setting operability of a slip and that of continuous paper, by revolving a guide plate in connection with the movement of a printing head to guide the continuous paper in a direction winding said paper around a platen in a state protruding from a paper guide. CONSTITUTION:When a printing head 1 is moved from a y-position being a home position to an x-direction, a striker 22 is engaged with an opening and closing link 19 and a connection plate 17 is moved in the direction shown by an arrow B against the energizing force of a spring 20 to bring guide plates 13, 14 to an open state right-angled to a platen shaft. When continuous paper 24 is fed in this state, the leading end of the continuous paper 24 impinges against the guide plates 13, 14 to be guided between paper guides 7, 8 and is guided by a tractor 10. When the printing head 1 is moved from the x-position to the y-position, a printing start possible state is automatically obtained by the operation of (p) and, at the same time, the striker 22 is separated from the link 19 to be revolved in a counterclockwise direction and the guide plates 13, 14 are brought to a closed state to make it possible to apply printing to a slip 25 in such a state that the continuous paper 24 is set to a platen 22.
