A printing apparatus that includes a holding unit configured to hold a roll sheet performs supplying the sheet by rotating the roll sheet held by the holding unit; nipping and conveying the supplied sheet; performing printing on the conveyed sheet; detecting occurrence of a print medium jam of the sheet; and, if the printing apparatus has detected a print medium jam of the sheet, performing a control process of supplying the sheet in a state in which the conveying is stopped.

Printing apparatus and printing method

A printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to be able to convey a roll sheet that is wound in a rolled shape and a cut sheet that is not wound in a rolled shape to a printing unit configured to print an image; a receiving unit detachably attached to the apparatus, the receiving unit being configured to receive the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit; a detection unit configured to detect whether the receiving unit is attached to the apparatus; and a holding unit configured to, in a case where the detection unit detects that the receiving unit is not attached to the apparatus, nip to hold the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit.

Printing apparatus for printing on cut sheets and roll sheets

A sheet storage apparatus and a printing apparatus include simplified mechanisms for supporting a sheet and for guiding the sheet. A sheet storage device that can store a sheet discharged from a discharge port of a printing apparatus includes multiple flappers provided below the discharge port and arranged in a width direction of the sheet, each flapper being rotatable between a first posture in which the sheet discharged from the discharge port is guided downward in a gravitational direction by using a first surface, and a second posture in which the sheet is supported by using a second surface being different from the first surface; and a connecting unit which connects the plurality of flappers to one another.

Sheet storage device and printing apparatus

There is provided a printing apparatus. A printing unit prints an image on a printing medium and is able to move. A cutter unit is able to connect with or separate from the printing unit, and, by following a movement of the printing unit, cuts the printing medium. A setting unit sets, in accordance with a size of the printing medium, a standby position of the cutter unit.

Printing apparatus and control method with cutter unit configured to connect with or separate from printing unit

A recording apparatus includes a recording portion configured to record an image on a recording medium; a housing having an ejection opening on the side of the housing, the recording medium recorded with the image being ejected from the ejection opening in the ejection direction; and a receiver that receives the recording medium ejected from the ejection opening. The recording apparatus further includes a guide provided inside the ejection opening of the housing, and the receiver has an end on an upstream side of the receiver with respect to the ejection direction such that the end is held at a position overlapping with the guide.

Recording apparatus having flexible recording medium receiving member

A recording apparatus includes a recording portion configured to record an image on a recording medium; a discharge port configured to discharge the recording medium, on which the image is recorded, in a discharge direction; and a receiving member located below the discharge port in a direction of gravity and configured to receive the recording medium discharged from the discharge port. The recording apparatus further includes a housing portion configured to be movable between a receiving position which is on a side spaced apart from the discharge port in the discharge direction and in which the housing portion holds one end of the receiving member to receive the recording medium, and a housing position which is on a side further toward the discharge port than the receiving position. The housing portion is configured to house at least a part of the receiving member.

Sheet accommodating device and recording apparatus with storable sheet receiving member

A printing apparatus includes a plurality of set units to set rolled print media, a conveyance unit to convey the print media, a printing unit, a detection unit, and display units. The printing unit prints an image on the print media conveyed by the conveyance unit. The detection unit detects whether any one of the print media is fed to a predetermined printable position at which printing is performable by the printing unit. Each display unit is provided on a different one of the plurality of set units and configured to indicate whether a print medium set in a corresponding set unit is being fed. When the printing unit performs printing on the print medium, each display unit indicates whether the print medium set in the corresponding set unit is being fed in accordance with a result of detection performed by the detection unit.

Printing apparatus

A printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to be able to convey a roll sheet that is wound in a rolled shape and a cut sheet that is not wound in a rolled shape to a printing unit configured to print an image, a receiving unit detachably attached to the apparatus, the receiving unit being configured to receive the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit; a detection unit configured to detect whether the receiving unit is attached to the apparatus; and a holding unit configured to, in a case where the detection unit detects that the receiving unit is not attached to the apparatus, nip to hold the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit.

Printing apparatus with detachable placement unit

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to convey a sheet in a conveyance direction, a print head configured to perform printing on the sheet conveyed in the conveyance direction by the conveyance unit, a discharge port from which the sheet printed by the print head is discharged, a stacking portion located below the discharge port and configured to stack the sheet discharged from the discharge port in a state where a leading end of the sheet is directed to an upstream side in the conveyance direction, and a holding unit disposed in a sheet discharge path below the discharge port and configured to move between a holding position in which the holding unit holds the sheet and a releasing position in which the holding unit releases the sheet.

A printing apparatus includes a feeding roller configured to feed a printing sheet stacked on a stacking unit, a conveyance roller configured to convey the printing sheet fed by the feeding roller, a printing unit configured to print the printing sheet conveyed by the conveyance roller, a conveyance control unit configured to control conveyance of printing sheets so that the trailing edge of a preceding sheet as a printing sheet precedingly fed from the stacking unit and the leading edge of a succeeding sheet as a printing sheet succeedingly fed from the stacking unit overlap each other, and a determination unit configured to determine whether to convey the succeeding sheet to a position facing the printing unit while keeping an overlap state between the preceding sheet and the succeeding sheet.

Printing apparatus, control method therefor and storage medium

Recording apparatus

A printing apparatus, comprising a conveyance unit for conveying a sheet, a carriage mounted with a printhead and configured to scan the printhead in a sheet widthwise direction, a platen arranged so as to face the printhead, a detection unit mounted on the carriage and configured to detect a distance to a sheet, a support portion, for supporting a sheet from below, arranged on a downstream side of the carriage in a conveyance direction, movable between a first position at which the support portion forms a conveyance surface for a sheet and a second position at which the support portion protrudes above the conveyance surface, and a determination unit configured to determine, based on a detection result of the detection unit, whether the support portion is at the first position or the second position.

There is provided with printing apparatus. A printing unit prints an image on a printing medium and is able to move. A cutter unit is able to connect with or separate from the printing unit, and, by following a movement of the printing unit, cuts the printing medium. A control unit, in a case where a predetermined condition is satisfied after the printing medium is cut by the cutter unit, causes the printing unit to perform printing on a succeeding printing medium, while moving the printing unit in a state in which the cutter unit is connected with the printing unit.
