To the left of the paper feed roll 16.16, a cutter 17 having a sharp blade at the tip cuts the paper 14 to a predetermined size. On the left side of the ivy 17, a thermal head 18 consisting of a substrate and a heat generating element is placed and held by a head holder 19. A platen roll 20 is rotatably attached to a fixed part of the device below the thermal head 18, and the thermal head 18 is pressed against the platen roll 20 by the pressing force of a spring 21 attached to a head holder 19. There is. A stepping motor 22 is disposed below the platen roll 20, and the stepping motor 22 drives the platen roll 20. Paper feed rolls 16, 16, etc. are driven. Next, on the left side of the platen roll 20 is a Kawaguchi roll 23.
is rotatably attached to the fixed part of the device, and the printed ticket is discharged to the sondo outlet 25 by this exit roll 23. It is a 26Fi handle. In addition, the above-mentioned guide roll 15, M feed') roll 16, platen roll 20, f
The f1 roller and the stepping motor 22 constitute a paper transport section. A thermal spatula 18, a platen meal 20, and a stepping motor 22 constitute the printing section.Incidentally, a single motor Fi is used to drive the paper conveying section and the printing section.

Next, in the lid body 13, 30 is an operation panel, which includes a numeric keypad 31 for inputting ticket prices, etc., a designation key 32 for inputting destination station names, etc., and a display section 33 for displaying ticket prices, etc.
