Abstract
The disclosure discloses a printer comprising a take-up portion, a first memory, a consumed amount calculating portion, a first correcting portion, an operation signal input portion, and a second correcting portion. The take-up portion takes up a recording medium on which printing was performed by the printing head. The first memory stores a value related to a remaining amount or a consumed amount of the recording medium. The consumed amount calculating portion calculates a first consumed amount based on a fed amount by the feeder. The first correcting portion corrects the value stored in the first memory by the first consumed amount. The second correcting portion corrects the value r stored in the first memory by using a predetermined second consumed amount, triggered by input of the operation signal to the operation signal input portion.
