Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a position of FOT to be easily regulated only by pushing a switch down without requiring manual rotation of a platen knob or the like by a method wherein two switches such as the switch to be regulated to control a present line by performing line feed and the switch to be regulated not to control the present line by performing the one feed are established as a switch with which an operator performs line feed of paper under a power source making state. CONSTITUTION:In the case where a line control line feed switch 1 is used, a control part 3 always controls a present line by a number of line fed lines. Then, in the case where a position of FOT is regulated, by pushing a non-line control line feed switch 2 down, the control part 3 drives a mechanism part 4 and a platen 4 in the same way, and line feed of paper 6 is performed. However, in that case the present line controlled with the control part 3 even after line feed is that as it is before line feed. Therefore, in closing the power source of a printer or after execution of home feed, the position of the FOT is regulated with the non-line control line feed switch 2.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】〔産業上の利用分野〕本発明はプリンタに関し、特に操作盤上の改行スイッチ
の制御に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a printer, and particularly to control of a line feed switch on an operation panel.

[Conventional technology]

従来、この種のプリンタは操作盤上に改行することによ
る現在行管理を行うよう制御される改行スイッチしか備
えられていなかった。Conventionally, this type of printer has only been equipped with a line feed switch on the operation panel that is controlled to manage the current line by changing the line.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

上述した従来のプリンタは、操作盤上に改行することに

備えていなかったため、用紙のＴＯＦ位置を調整するの
に操作盤上の改行スイッチで用紙を改行して行を調整す

ことができなかった。従って重いプラテンノブを手でま
わして合わせるより他に方法がなく、また微調整もしす
らいという欠点があった。The conventional printers mentioned above were only equipped with a line feed switch on the operation panel that was controlled to manage the current line by starting a new line, so in order to adjust the TOF position of the paper, it was necessary to change the paper using the line feed switch on the operation panel. If I adjusted the line by breaking the line, the line in line management 7 would also be broken, so I couldn't adjust it. Therefore, there was no other way than to turn the heavy platen knob by hand, and there was also the drawback that it was difficult to make fine adjustments.

[Means to solve the problem]

本発明のプリンタは、電源投入状態でオペレータが用紙
を改行するためのスイッチとして、改行することによる
現在行管理を行合うよう制御されるスイッチと、改行す

ッチとの２個を有している。The printer of the present invention has a switch that allows an operator to feed a paper line feed when the power is turned on, and a switch that is controlled to manage the current line by line feed, and a switch that controls the current line management not to be performed by line feed. It has two switches.

〔Example〕

次に、本発明について図面を参照して説明する。 Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

御部３は常に管埋している。FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention. First, when the operator normally performs a paper line feed using the line feed switch on the operation panel 7, by pressing the line management line feed switch 1 that manages the current line, the control section 3 drives the line feed mechanism section 4 and the platen. , performs a line feed for paper 6. When this line management line feed switch 1 is used, the control unit 3 always fills the current line with the number of line feeds.

る。Next, when adjusting the TOF position, by pressing the delinquent management line feed switch 2 that does not manage the current line, the control unit 3 similarly drives the line feed mechanism unit 4 and the platen 5,
Add a line break to paper 6. However, in this case, even after the line break, the current line managed by the control unit 3 remains as it was before the line break. Therefore, when the power of the printer is turned on or after form feeding is executed, the 'FOF position is adjusted by the delinquency management line feed switch 2.
