Abstract

L'invention concerne un mécanisme de transport de papier capable de corriger efficacement une boucle formée dans une partie de papier extraite d'un rouleau de papier. Une imprimante (1) transporte une partie de papier (P) en extrayant la partie de papier (P) à partir d'un rouleau de papier (R) enroulé sous forme de rouleau, l'imprimante (1) étant pourvue d'une section de repassage (S) qui vient en contact avec la surface externe (Po) de la partie de papier (P) passant à travers la section de repassage (S), corrigeant une boucle formée dans la partie de papier (P); une section de retenue amont (F1) disposée en amont de la section de repassage (S) dans la direction de transport et appuyant sur la partie de papier (P) depuis un côté; et une section de retenue aval (F2) disposée en aval de la section de repassage (S) dans la direction de transport et maintenant la partie de papier (P) depuis ledit côté.
