Abstract: According to one embodiment, a printing apparatus includes a conveying unit configured to convey a printing medium in a conveying direction. The apparatus further includes a printing unit configured to print at least one side of the printing medium with information. The printing unit may extend in a direction perpendicular to a conveying direction of the printing medium and may be arranged relative to the conveying unit so as to position at least one end portion of the printing medium into a printable region of the printing unit.

Abstract: A printer including a containing unit, first and second heads, a separation member, a cutting member, and a collecting unit. The containing unit is configured to contain a printing medium separable into front and rear surfaces. The first head is configured to print first data on the front surface of the printing medium. The second head is configured to print second data on the rear surface of the printing medium. The separation member is configured to separate the front surface from the printing medium passing through the first and second heads. The cutting member is configured to cut a printed portion of the front surface separated by the separation member. The collecting unit is configured to collect the printing medium of the rear surface remaining after the front surface is separated in order to preserve the rear surface.

Abstract: A printing device includes a printer body, a print unit, a detecting unit, and a control unit. The printer body includes a discharge port from which the printed medium is discharged. The print unit is provided within the printer body and configured to perform a printing operation on a medium. The detecting unit is configured to detect an installation position of the printer body. The control unit is configured to selectively control a print direction of the medium discharged from the discharge port based on the installation position of the printer body detected by the detecting unit.

Abstract: A printer according to an embodiment of the present invention is a printer which transports a recording medium, provided with a plurality of laminated sheets, along a predetermined transport path including a curved portion. The printer is provided with a dot head for printing the recording medium, a platen roller which faces the dot head with the recording medium therebetween, and a feed guide which is located on the downstream side of the dot head and the platen roller with respect to the direction of transport and guides the recording medium in a manner such that the recording medium is bent in a direction opposite to that in which the curved portion is bent.

Abstract: In a case where temperature of a print head mounted on a head carrier becomes a specified temperature or higher during use, a head carrier is retracted to a retracting section in a housing of a printer, so that it is hardly touched by a user's hand. The retracting to the retracting section can also be linked to opening of a printer cover.
