Description

本発明は、上記課題に鑑みなされたものであり、シート巻取りの際のユーザー負荷が軽減された、シート巻取り機能を有するプリント装置を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a printing apparatus having a sheet winding function in which a user load during sheet winding is reduced.

上記課題を解決するための本発明のプリント装置は、続シートがロール状に巻かれたロールシートを載置する載置部と、前記載置部に載置された前記ロールシートを回転させる駆動部と、前記載置部に載置された前記ロールシートの表面を押圧する押圧部材と、前記載置部から供給された前記ロールシートにプリントを行うプリント部と、を備えたプリント装置であって、前記ロールシートが前記載置部から前記プリント部に向けて供給するときは前記押圧部材を第１の押圧力で前記ロールシートの表面を押圧し、前記プリント部により前記ロールシートにプリントを行うときは前記押圧部材を前記第１の押圧力よりも小さい第２の押圧力で前記ロールシートの表面を押圧する制御手段を備えることを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above problems, a printing apparatus according to the present invention includes a placement unit that places a roll sheet on which a continuous sheet is wound in a roll shape, and a drive that rotates the roll sheet placed on the placement unit. And a printing member that prints on the roll sheet supplied from the placement unit, and a pressing member that presses the surface of the roll sheet placed on the placement unit. When the roll sheet is supplied from the placement unit toward the print unit, the pressing member is pressed against the surface of the roll sheet with a first pressing force, and the print unit prints the roll sheet. When performing, it comprises control means for pressing the surface of the roll sheet with a second pressing force that is smaller than the first pressing force.

Claims

A placement unit for placing a roll sheet in which a continuous sheet is wound into a roll; and
A drive unit that rotates the roll sheet placed on the placement unit;
A pressing member that presses the surface of the roll sheet placed on the placement unit;
A printing unit that prints on the roll sheet supplied from the placement unit;
A printing apparatus comprising:
When the roll sheet is supplied from the placement unit toward the printing unit, the pressing member is pressed against the surface of the roll sheet with a first pressing force, and the printing unit performs printing on the roll sheet. Comprises a control means for pressing the pressing member against the surface of the roll sheet with a second pressing force smaller than the first pressing force.

The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit separates the pressing member from the surface of the roll sheet when printing is performed on the roll sheet by the printing unit.

The printing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the control unit causes the pressing member to contact the surface of the roll sheet before stopping the driving of the driving unit.

The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit operates in an operation mode in which the roll sheet is rewound from the printing unit to the placement unit.

When the roll sheet is rewound from the print unit to the placement unit, the control member presses the surface of the roll sheet with a third pressing force equal to or greater than the second pressing force. The printing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the pressing force of the pressing member is controlled.

The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the pressing member is configured to apply a pressing force in a vertical direction from a lower side of the roll sheet.

The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the pressing member is configured to be separated from the surface of the roll sheet when the pressing force of the pressing member is zero.

The printing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising a basket unit that receives a sheet discharged from the printing unit.

Further comprising cutter means for cutting the roll sheet printed by the printing unit,
The controller controls the pressing force of the second pressing member so that the second pressing member presses the surface of the continuous sheet when the continuous sheet is cut by the cutter means. The printing apparatus according to claim 1.

A winding unit for winding the continuous sheet on the winding unit into a roll; and
A second drive unit for rotating the winding unit;
A second pressing member that presses the surface of the continuous sheet wound around the winding unit, and
The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the control unit controls a pressing force of the second pressing member.

The control unit includes at least one of a sheet type of the continuous sheet and whether or not the continuous sheet fed out from the print unit is wound so that a print surface of the continuous sheet is wound outward. The printing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein a pressing force of the second pressing member is controlled accordingly.

The printing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the winding unit and the placement unit are arranged above and below the printing unit.

The winding unit is further configured so that the continuous sheet wound up by the winding unit can be fed out to the printing unit for printing,
The control unit includes: (a) an operation mode in which the roll sheet is sent from the placement unit to the printing unit for printing; and (b) the continuous sheet from the winding unit for printing. The printing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the printing apparatus is operated in an operation mode sent to the printing unit.

A basket unit configured to receive a sheet discharged from the print unit,
The control unit includes: (a) an operation mode in which a print sheet discharged from the print unit is stored in the basket unit; and (b) a print sheet discharged from the print unit is wound on the winding unit. The printing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the printing apparatus is operated in a selected operation mode.
