Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a transport roller that transports the recording paper from a paper roll in a transport direction, a print head that ejects ink onto the recording paper, an ink supply portion that supplies the ink to the print head, a cutting mechanism that is provided downstream of the print head in the transport direction of the recording paper and that cuts the recording paper, and a control portion that controls the transport of the recording paper in a direction opposite to the transport direction in such a manner that, after the recording paper is cut, a leading end portion of the recording paper reaches a position of the print head from a position of the cutting mechanism, wherein the ink supply portion extends from a region downstream of the print head in the transport direction of the recording paper and is coupled to the print head.

Abstract: A label processing apparatus including a head configured to cause a wire pin to move toward and away from a label medium for performing processing on the label medium, a first wall member located at a position in a first direction from the transport path surface including a first communication hole communicating with outside, and a fan configured to blow air onto a ventilation region including a region located at the head side of the first surface in the transport direction, and to then cause the air to be discharged to the outside through the first communication hole.

Abstract: A label die cutting device enables easily changing the shape of the die cut made in label paper. A printer 1 has a print unit 7 and a die cutting process unit 8 (label die cutting device). The die cutting process unit 8 has a conveyance path 9 for conveying the label paper 5, a die cutting unit including wire pins 41 and a wire pin drive mechanism 42 for advancing and retracting the wire pins 41, and a die cutting controller 68 for driving the wire pin drive mechanism 42 to strike the wire pins 41 against the label paper 5 on the conveyance path 9 and die cut the label paper 5 based on print data. The die cutting unit is a wire dot head 27.

Abstract: The moving mechanism of a sheet feeding device has a first moving member and a second moving member. The first moving member is held in a position corresponding to the number of sheets supported by a sheet support member, and when moving in a specific direction can move the sheet support member in the separation direction away from a paper feed roller. The second moving member moves out and back through a specific range of movement in each revolution of the paper feed roller, engages the first moving member and moves the first moving member in the specific direction when moving out, and releases said engagement when moving back.

Abstract: A mechanism for installing a media separation roller 16 includes a roller holder unit 90 and a unit installation part 70 on the conveyance path side. The roller holder unit 90 includes a first holder 100 that supports the retard roller 16, a second holder 110 connected to the first holder 100 pivotably on an axis of holder rotation, and an urging member 130 that urges the first holder 100 to the second holder 110 around the axis of holder rotation. The retard roller 16 and tension spring 130 are removably installable to the unit installation part 70 as a unit. Replacing the retard roller 16 is therefore simple.

Abstract: To easily replace a retard roller (that is a media separation roller) while minimizing the required installation space, a printer 1 has a first media conveyance path 12 that conveys sheet media; a second media conveyance path 29 that conveys media and can open and close; a media conveyance roller 17 and a retard roller 16 disposed opposite each other with the first media conveyance path 12 therebetween; and a roller installation unit 70 to which the retard roller 16 is installed removably from the second media conveyance path 29 side. The retard roller 16 can be easily replaced from the open second media conveyance path 29. Compared with a configuration having a dedicated opening, a smaller opening and space for replacing the media separation roller are required.

Abstract: An electronic control device includes plural cylindrical coils and a set of a primary yoke and a secondary yoke. The primary yoke is provided at each one side of the plural coils and the secondary yoke is provided at each the other side of the plural coils in axial direction. A case member houses the plural coils, the primary yoke, and the secondary yoke. The primary yoke is connected to the secondary yoke and has lateral portions extending in the axial direction of the plural coils.

Abstract: An electronic control device includes a board on which electronic parts are provided and a case member accommodating the board and plural cylindrical coils. The plural cylindrical coils have terminals electrically connected to the board by soldering. In the device, an intermediate wall dividing the board from the plural cylindrical coils is formed on the case member, and a stress absorbing means for preventing generation of a solder break on each connection part between the terminals and the board by thermal load is provided between the board and the intermediate wall.
