Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for setting printing positions on a recording medium in an office, telex or data typewriter, in which a printing unit is arranged on a printer carriage which can be moved in the horizontal direction and in which the recording medium is arranged to be displaceable in the vertical direction. Furthermore, the invention relates to an arrangement for performing the method.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method and an arrangement for carrying out the method with which a desired printing position on a recording medium can be set very quickly.
  • the method according to the present invention has the purpose partly that the record carrier is written very quickly when many non-adjacent print positions are to be set on a record carrier.
  • the method is used in an advantageous manner in particular when a text to be output is stored in the office, telex or data typewriter. Since the printing unit and the platen roller around which the recording medium is placed perform fewer movements, the method also achieves less wear on the corresponding parts of the office 7 teleprinter or data typewriter.
  • the calculation of the new position of the printer carriage and the new line position is carried out after the occurrence of each character which is associated with a movement of the printer carriage or a movement of the recording medium in the vertical direction.
  • An advantageous arrangement for carrying out the method is characterized in that a control unit calculating the new position of the printer carriage and the new line position is provided, to which the printable characters and the control characters are fed from an input unit, which are connected to the printing unit and which are sent to a printer Engine control of the new printing position assigned control signals and that the engine control From the control signals generated signals, using a first motor moves the printer carriage and a second motor rotates a platen around which the record carrier is placed.
  • control unit contains a microcomputer that calculates the new printing position in each case.
  • a record carrier AT is placed in a platen roller SW in a known manner. Characters are printed on the record carrier AT using a printing unit DR which is arranged on a printer carriage DW.
  • the printer carriage DW is moved by a traction device placed around two pulleys.
  • a motor M1 is provided on one of the deflecting rollers and moves the printer carriage DW in the printing direction or in the horizontal direction counter to the printing direction.
  • a further motor M2 is arranged on the platen roller SW and moves the recording medium AT in the vertical direction, perpendicular to the printing direction.
  • the characters to be printed are entered via an input unit EE, which can be designed as a keyboard, as a memory or as a receiver of a teleprinter connected to a long-distance line.
  • the signs will delivered to a control unit ST. which is connected on the one hand to the printing unit DR and on the other hand to a motor control MS.
  • the control unit ST outputs control signals SD to the motor control MS and generates signals S1, with the aid of which the motor M1 brings the printer carriage DW into a desired position.
  • the control unit ST sends control signals SZ to the engine control MS, which the engine control MS converts into signals S2.
  • the motor M2 shifts the record carrier AT in the vertical direction and in this way generates one or more line feeds. Further details are explained below together with the illustration in FIG. 2.
  • the printing unit of a known teleprinter would take the path shown in dashed lines in Fig. 2 after receiving these characters. In a corresponding way, the printing unit would become a known one 'Teletype machine after the last letter B has been printed on line Z2. in order to get to the printing position of the first letter C in line Z5, follow the path also shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2. In contrast to this, the printing unit in the arrangement shown in FIG. 1 performs the movements shown by the solid arrows relative to the record carrier AT.
  • the printing unit DR thus takes the shortest route from the last letter A in line ZO to the first letter B in line Z2 and from the last letter B in line Z2 to the first letter C in line Z5.
  • the print position of the last letter A is first stored in line ZO.
  • the control unit gives the engine control tion MS from the signals SD and SZ, from which the motor control MS generates the signals S1 and S2, which are fed to the motors M1 and M2.
  • the respective new car position is only calculated when the first printable character appears after the tax labels. It is also conceivable to calculate the new carriage position after each control character, which is assigned to a movement of the printer carriage DW or the record carrier AT, but only to control the motor control MS when a printable character occurs.
  • the line feed can take place step-by-step in a known manner, while it is expedient for a plurality of lines for rapid positioning to continuously move the record carrier AT to the new line position.
  • the printer carriage DW can also be moved step by step with a small carriage distance WD and continuously with a large carriage distance according to an optimized movement program.
  • the control unit ST can be designed using memories, adders and counters. However, it proves to be expedient to provide a microcomputer which stores the printing position of the last character printed, calculates the carriage distance WD and the line distance ZD and also determines the new printing position in each case.
