  • Patent number: 6764237
    Abstract: A printer with a cutter device is provided with a lid which is open when a paper-feeding magazine is taken out. A receiver for receiving paper dust is disposed next to the lid. The lid and the receiver respectively have an engaging plate and an engaged plate for engaging with each other. If the lid is open when exchanging a recording paper, the engaging plate pushes the engaged plate in association with the operation to open of the lid. Thereby, the receiver is pulled out in a removing direction where the paper-feeding magazine is removed, and then a part of a containing chamber for accumulating the paper dust is exposed. If the containing chamber is full of the paper dust, the paper dust is discarded after the receiver has been completely removed.
