AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing printing devices lack the ability to automatically cut the recording medium before the first print job, resulting in excess material downstream that needs manual trimming, especially when using a winding device for multiple printouts of uniform size.

Method used

Incorporating a supply device, print head, and perforation forming head that allows for perforation formation before or after printing, with a selection display unit to choose the perforation option for each print job, enabling easy cutting of downstream margins.

Benefits of technology

Facilitates easy cutting of downstream margins on the recording medium after printing by forming perforations at appropriate positions, ensuring uniform print sizes without manual trimming.

Abstract

To provide a printer which can easily cut a margin on the downstream side of a recording medium after printing.SOLUTION: A printer comprises: a supply device which supplies a recording medium; a print head which performs printing on the recording medium supplied from the supply device; a perforation formation head which forms perforations on the recording medium supplied from the supply device; and an option display unit which displays an option on whether or not to form the perforations by the perforation formation head before the print head executes printing on a screen for each printing job.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
