Abstract
A printer detects black marks BM formed at a constant interval along the length of recording paper by a detector disposed to the recording paper conveyance path at a position upstream from a printing position, positions the recording paper to a printing start position for printing on the recording paper based on the detection results from the detector, and positions the recording paper to a cutting position downstream from the printing position in order to cut the recording paper based on detection of a black mark BM after printing ends. When a power-off command is input, the printer starts conveying the recording paper forward, stops conveying the recording paper when a black mark BM is detected by the detector after conveyance starts, and then turns the power off.
