[0030] In one embodiment of the present application, limiting members are provided on both sides of the assembly area of the bin body; and the side walls of the paper bin are engaged with the limiting members.
[0031] From the above description, it can be seen that by setting a limiter on the bin assembly area of the rear cover, when the paper bin is set on the bin assembly area, the limiter can clamp the side wall of the paper bin, thereby improving the stability of the paper bin.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present application, the printing device also includes an upper cover; the upper cover is detachably connected to the rear cover; a snap-fit block is provided at one end of the paper bin facing the side of the upper cover, and the snap-fit block is used for detachably snapping the upper cover.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, by providing an upper cover and providing a snap-fitting block on the paper bin that can be detachably snapped to the upper cover, the paper bin can be more stably assembled between the upper cover and the rear cover.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present application, a card slot connected to the upper cover is provided on the inner wall of the back cover.
[0035] It can be seen from the above description that by providing a card slot on the inner wall of the back cover and connecting it to the upper cover through the card slot, the stability of the connection between the back cover and the upper cover is improved.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present application, a paper bin functional component is provided on the bin body assembly area of the rear cover.

[0039] From the above description, it can be seen that by setting a first slide rail and a baffle member, and the baffle member can be slidably set on the first slide rail and the baffle member can be fixed with the rear cover, that is, by adjusting the distance between the baffle member and the side wall of the paper bin, the paper bin can adapt to different sizes of roll paper.
[0040] In one embodiment of the present application, the assembly area of the bin body is provided with equally spaced limit grooves; the distribution length of the limit grooves is the same as the length of the first slide rail; the depth of the limit grooves corresponds to the height of the limit member; the baffle member is fixed to the rear cover by the cooperation of the fixing member and the limit groove.
[0041] From the above description, it can be seen that by setting equally spaced limit grooves in the bin assembly area and setting the distribution length of the limit grooves to be the same as the length of the first slide rail, the fixing parts can be plugged into the limit grooves throughout the entire stroke of the first slide rail, thereby achieving matching adjustment for different paper sizes.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present application, a second slide rail is provided on the side wall of the paper bin; and the baffle member is slidably provided on the first slide rail and the second slide rail.
[0043] As can be seen from the above description, by further arranging a second slide rail on the side wall of the paper bin and slidably arranging the baffle member on the first slide rail and the second slide rail, the baffle member is made more stable during the sliding process.
