A printer comprises a cutter; a non-volatile storage module; a command receiving module configured to receive a command for instructing a cutting method of a continuous paper from an information processing apparatus connected to the printer; a first cutting control module configured to control an operation of the cutter to cut the continuous paper in the cutting method instructed by the command; a recording module configured to record information indicating the cutting method in the storage module at the time of paper cutting based on the command; and a second cutting control module configured to cut the continuous paper in a cutting method indicated by the information stored in the storage module at the time of paper cutting without the command.

Printer and method for cutting continuous paper by the same

A receipt printer according to an embodiment includes a sheet roller that transports a sheet from a sheet roll to a receipt issuing port. A printing device prints receipt data on the sheet. A cutter configured performs full cutting so that the sheet is separated from the sheet roll and partial cutting so that the sheet remains partially connected to the sheet roll. A processor controls the cutter to perform the partial cutting after the printing device prints the receipt data on the sheet, and also controls the cutter to perform the full cutting when a predetermined condition is satisfied after the partial cutting is performed.

Receipt printer, receipt printer system, and control method

The laser beam output from each of the semiconductor lasers is applied to the same print dot, such as each of the print dots on a thermosensitive recording medium, in such a manner that the laser beams are superimposed on one another sequentially at the same time that each of the semiconductor lasers is moved in the main scanning direction.

Recording apparatus with a record head and recording method using the record head

A single mode laser beam output from a single mode semiconductor laser and a multimode laser beam output from a multimode semiconductor laser are combined with each other by a polarization beam splitter, the combined laser beam is used by a deflection scanning mechanism to perform main scanning, and an image of the combined laser beam is formed on a surface of a thermal recording medium by a scanning lens.
