Abstract
In a thermal printer control device, gate circuits are provided between elements of a thermal head and a print controller. After the print controller has supplied a print start signal to the thermal head, a print signal control circuit detects if a print stop signal has been supplied from the controller within a predetermined time and, if not, closes the gate circuits to prevent supply of the print signals to the thermal head elements.
