Abstract
A paper magazine includes a shaft portion for rotatably supporting a paper roll inside a box-like frame, a paper transporting system configured for pinching a paper drawn out of the paper roll supported on the shaft portion by transport rollers and delivering this paper through an opening formed in the frame, and a transmission mechanism for effecting the delivery and rewinding of the paper through the opening by transmitting a forward drive force and a reverse drive force to the transport rollers. A guide member is provided on an inner wall face of the frame disposed at a lower portion inside the paper magazine. The guide member is configured for coming into contact with a terminal end of the paper delivered from the paper magazine which end assumes a hanging-down posture as a result of a paper rewinding operation effected after detachment of the terminal end from said shaft portion as a result of a paper delivering operation effected with the paper magazine being set under a predetermined posture.
