Abstract
A paper guide mechanism for use with a printer of the type, in which a rolled paper inserted into an inlet opening and introduced by a guide into a printing portion and in which the paper is guided by a guide, after it has been printed, until it is discharged from a discharge opening. A printing device has its printing mechanism assembled into a unit which is accommodated in such a movable block as is rotatable with respect to the body of the printer. Moreover, one of guide plates forming a running path for guiding the paper is fixed to the lower end of the movable block. Thus, the rolled paper being guided through the running path can be easily exposed and accessed by turning or retracting the movable block.
