Abstract
A printer apparatus having two-sided printing capability is taught. Two printing mechanisms are provided that can simultaneously print both sides of roll paper. The printing mechanisms are physically oriented with respect to each other and to a simple paper handling/routing mechanism comprised of rollers so that when only one printing mechanism is installed to provide only one-sided printing, the paper handling mechanism need not be modified but the roll paper is merley routed differently around the rollers. Retroactively, a second printing mechanism may simply be installed in the printer for two-sided printing and the roll paper is routed around the rollers differently to route the roll paper to and from the second printing mechanism.
