Claims

A printing device capable of communicating with an external device and accommodating roll paper,
A printing unit for printing on the roll paper;
An opening through which the roll paper can be inserted;
A cover for opening and closing the opening of the housing portion;
A paper guide that regulates the position of the roll paper in the storage unit according to the presence or absence of attachment according to the paper width of the roll paper, or the attachment position;
A paper guide sensor for detecting a state of attachment of the paper guide;
A cover sensor for detecting the cover;
A storage unit for storing a setting value indicating a paper width of the roll paper;
A communication unit that communicates with the external device;
Causing the printing unit to print based on the setting value stored in the storage unit, and
When the cover sensor detects that the cover has transitioned from an open state to a closed state, the state of attachment of the paper guide detected by the paper guide sensor corresponds to the roll paper having the first paper width. If the setting value is a value indicating a paper width other than the first paper width, the process of changing the setting value to a value indicating the first paper width; and A control unit that executes a process of notifying the external device of the setting value;
A printing apparatus comprising:

The controller is
When the attachment state of the paper guide is an attachment state corresponding to the roll paper having the first paper width, and the setting value is a value indicating a paper width other than the first paper width, the setting value is 2. The process according to claim 1, wherein after performing the process of changing to a value indicating the first paper width, a reset is executed, and a process of notifying the external device of the set value after the change is performed. Printing device.

The controller is
With the reset, the fact that the reset is performed and notifies the external device, in response to an inquiry from said external device, said setting value to claim 2, characterized in that notifies the external device The printing apparatus as described.

The controller is
When the paper guide is attached in a state corresponding to the roll paper having the first paper width, and the set value is a value indicating a second paper width larger than the first paper width. 4. The process of changing the set value to a value indicating the first paper width and the process of notifying the external device of the set value after the change are performed. 5. The printing apparatus according to claim 1.

When the paper guide is locked to a locking portion provided in the housing portion, the paper guide sensor detects,
When the cover is shifted from the open state to the closed state when the paper guide is not locked to the locking portion and is provided in the storage portion, the paper guide is pushed by the cover The printing device according to claim 1, wherein the printing device is locked to the locking portion.

A transport unit that transports the roll paper by sandwiching the roll paper by a thermal head and a platen roller;
The controller is
6. The printing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a motor that drives the platen roller has a higher torque as the paper width indicated by the set value is smaller.

A printing apparatus capable of communicating with an external device and capable of accommodating roll paper, wherein the printing section prints on the roll paper, and has an opening through which the roll paper can be inserted and accommodates the roll paper. A cover that opens and closes the opening of the storage unit, a presence or absence of attachment according to the paper width of the roll paper, or a paper guide that regulates the position of the roll paper in the storage unit according to the attachment position; A paper guide sensor that detects a state of attachment of the paper guide, a cover sensor that detects the cover, a storage unit that stores a setting value indicating a paper width of the roll paper, a communication unit that communicates with the external device, A control unit that causes the printing unit to print based on the setting value stored in a storage unit,
When the control unit detects that the cover has shifted from an open state to a closed state by the cover sensor, the attachment state of the paper guide detected by the paper guide sensor is the first paper width. A process of changing the setting value to a value indicating the first paper width when the setting value is a value indicating a paper width other than the first paper width, in the case of an attachment state corresponding to roll paper; And the control method of the printing apparatus characterized by performing the process which notifies the said setting value after a change to the said external device.
