Abstract

The data transmitted from the host computer is temporarily stored in a input buffer provided in the printing apparatus and the printing is carried out while fetching the data stored therein. When a clear switch is depressed to halt the printing operation, the printing operation is halted and the residual ensuing data remained in the host computer is not fed into the input buffer for storage but led to a data receiving means, whereby the residual ensuing data of the last block of data and another block of forthcoming data are not mixing with each other in the line buffer and thus the subsequent printing for another block can be started from the beginning.
