Abstract: Provided is a printing apparatus including a communication section configured to communicate with an external apparatus and receive print data and a cut command, a connector configured to be coupled to any one of a first peripheral apparatus and a second peripheral apparatus, a head, a cutter, and a control section configured to control the head and the cutter, in which the control section is configured to, when receiving, by the communication section, reception information including a plurality of pieces of the print data and a plurality of the cut commands after no reception for a predetermined period of time, transmit a drive command to the first peripheral apparatus via the connector based on at least one cut command among the cut commands included in the reception information to drive the first peripheral apparatus, and not transmit the drive command to the first peripheral apparatus based on another cut command.

Abstract: A printing device includes a communication section configured to communicate with an external device, a connector configured to be coupled to one of a first peripheral device and a second peripheral device, a printing section that prints on a recording paper, and a control section that controls the printing section, and the control section transmits, when the communication section receives a first command, a drive instruction to the first peripheral device via the connector to drive the first peripheral device even while the printing section is printing, and transmits, when the communication section receives a second command, a drive signal to the second peripheral device via the connector to drive the second peripheral device while the printing section is not printing.

Abstract: A medium processing apparatus includes a medium processing mechanism that processes a medium, a first board configured to communicate with an external apparatus by a first communication method and control the medium processing mechanism, a second board configured to communicate with the first board by the first communication method, a third board configured to communicate with the second board by the first communication method and communicate with the external apparatus by a second communication method different from the first communication method, a switcher that switches a communication destination of the first board to the second board or the external apparatus, and a notification section that makes, when the communication destination of the first board is switched to the second board by the switcher, a notification of communication information based on the second communication method.

Abstract: An update system includes a printing device configured to be coupled to a wireless communication device performing first communication, and a processing device configured to be connected to the printing device via second communication. The processing device transmits a transmission request for identification information identifying the wireless communication device, to the printing device. The printing device, when receiving the transmission request for the identification information from the processing device, transmits the identification information to the processing device. The processing device, when receiving the identification information from the printing device, transmits firmware corresponding to the received identification information as firmware for update to the printing device. The printing device, when receiving the firmware for update from the processing device, updates firmware stored in a storage unit to the firmware for update.

Abstract: A recording apparatus is provided. A recording head performs recording on a recording medium. A conveyance roller conveys the recording medium in a conveyance direction. A conveyance path includes a curved portion which guides the recording medium and curves the recording medium in a downstream of a nip portion between the recording head and the conveyance roller in the conveyance direction. A discharge portion discharges the recording medium. A detecting unit is located apart from the conveyance path. The detecting unit detects the recording medium which deviates from the conveyance path as the recording medium is drawn into and along the conveyance roller near the curved portion of the conveyance path. A controller rotates the conveyance roller backwards by a predetermined amount to convey the recording medium backwards when the recording medium is detected by the detecting unit, and then rotates the conveyance roller forwards by at least the predetermined amount.
