〔実施例〕
次に本発明について図面を参照して説明する。The above-mentioned conventional printing mechanism requires two print heads, which increases the cost, and if it is forced to use only one print head, the structure becomes complicated. [Means for Solving the Problem] The printer of the present invention arranges two ink ribbons having holes at regular intervals in front of a print head, and winds up one ink ribbon to feed from right to left. Hold the roller on one side, and hold the take-up roller on the other side in order to feed the other ink ribbon from left to right. When the carrier moves, the ink ribbon that is not being printed is placed in its hole in the print head. Printing is performed by facing the ink ribbon and feeding the other ink ribbon. [Example] Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

A ribbon feed section (not shown), conventional reflective sensors 8 and 9, and a head 3 constitute a carrier section of the printer. The ink ribbon 4.5 has holes 11 to 13 at regular intervals as shown in FIG. For example, in the F (forward) direction of the arrow, the conventional reflective sensor 9 detects the sixth section 13 of the ink ribbon 5, and then feeds the ink ribbon 5 a certain amount to stop the sixth section 13 at the position of the print head 3, and the ink ribbon 4 Printing is performed while feeding by driving the take-up roller 6. In the R (reverse) direction, after the six parts 11 of the ink ribbon 4 are detected by the reflective sensor 8, the ink ribbon 4 is fed a certain amount, the six parts 11 are stopped at the position of the print head 3, and the ink ribbon 5 is moved to the take-up roller. Printing is performed while driving and feeding 7. If the sensor detects a hole in the ribbon on the printing side, that part will be skipped and printing will continue.

字速度を大きくできる効果がある。As explained above, the present invention has an ink ribbon for printing while the carrier moves from left to right, and an ink ribbon for printing while the carrier moves from right to left, and the ink ribbon for printing while the carrier moves from right to left. By arranging the holes in the ribbon to face the print head and feeding the ink ribbon on the printing side, bidirectional printing can be performed, which has the effect of increasing printing speed with one print head.
