As a result of this feeding operation, the continuous paper 9 subjected to the frictional resistance by the paper presser plate 4 causes the paper to be thickened in the path reaching the paper presser plate 4 as shown in FIG.

Next, from this state, the push tractor 5 is further rotated forward, the continuous paper 9 is advanced by an arbitrary set amount within a range of about 5 mm to 30 mm, and then the push tractor 9 is rotated with the platen 1 by the same rotation speed. Reverse it,
The continuous paper 9 is retracted.

The feeding of the fixed amount is performed in a state in which the paper is thickened. However, in the subsequent retraction of the fixed amount, the continuous paper 9 is fed in a direction opposite to the direction of the paper holding plate 4. The paper is pulled back by the push tractor 2 so as to slide on the platen 1 while receiving the strong resistance of the paper holding plate 4. It will be in the state of being put. Therefore, by this series of feeding and pulling back, the leading end of the continuous paper sheet 9 is shifted back by ΔA from the original protruding position A to the feeding side by the paper thickness as shown in FIG.

By this operation, the platen 1 whose peripheral speed is set to be several percent higher than that of the push tractor 2 feeds the continuous paper 9 from the position of ΔA to the recording head 8 in a state where there is no paper thinning. When the printing operation is started at the timing of, the writing of the recording with a slight top margin can be performed, and thereafter, the paper pressing roller 3 is pressed against the peripheral surface of the platen 1 to complete the recording and writing. The continuous paper 9 is sequentially discharged.

(Effects) As described above, according to the present invention, first, the push tractor is rotated forward to feed the continuous paper to a position immediately before the recording head, and then the push tractor is rotated forward and backward by an arbitrary amount to continuously rotate the continuous paper. Is moved forward and backward, so that the fixed amount of forward and backward movement makes it possible to remove paper jam without changing the position of the leading edge of the continuous paper.
Accurate recording and writing can be performed while continuously feeding continuous paper without causing a deviation in the line pitch.
