Problems solved by technology

As a result, a considerable amount of printable receipts is wasted daily due to the lack of proper auto-alignment mechanisms in such printers
[0004] Also, in some scenarios, the amount of rotation provided by the motor may vary depending on the type of printable receipt and transaction history used in the printer
In this case, an undesired sliding of the printable receipt may occur due to an internal error of the motor
In addition, excessive forward delivery may also occur due to wear of the printer components used for deployment
Therefore, unused printable receipts may be ejected out of the printer's cutter position, resulting in this waste of printable receipts

Abstract

A method and a printer for aligning leading edge of a printable receipt to print position are described. The printer includes a sensor placed proximal to a cutter position. The sensor generates a first signal in response to a printable receipt blocking the sensor. Upon detection of first signal from the sensor, a backward feed signal is provided to a first motor until the first signal is stopped to roll the printable receipt into a print receipt roller. Further, a forward feed signal is provided to the first motor to unroll printable receipt from the print receipt roller until a second signal is received from the sensor on blocking by the printable receipt. Upon detection of the second signal, an automatic fixed backward feed signal is provided to the first motor to align the leading edge of the printable receipt in the print position, thereby avoiding wastage of printable receipt.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to the Indian application with filing date of March 18, 2020 and application number 202041011757, and cites the content of the above application, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0002] The present invention relates generally to printers, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to methods and printers for aligning the leading edge of a printable receipt with the printing position of the printer. Background technique [0003] In the printer, a printable receipt is unrolled from the print receipt roller by a motor to print details of any transaction. This printing process is performed by a print head provided in the printer over a desired print area where a printable receipt can be printed. Upon completion of the printing process, the printable receipt is aligned with the cutter for cutting at a position upstream of the print area of ​​the printable receipt. A problem ass...
