Abstract

A conversion area in a storage of a printer is determined to accommodate slips of different sizes. Slips are conveyed along a path that is guided on one side and open on the other. A detector detects the length of the slip in the conveyance direction. Dimensions of the conversion area are determined based on the detected length of the slip, and a recording range of a recording head is also determined. Font data is read from memory based on font code that is received from a control device and written in the conversion area per line unit in the order in which the font code is received and in a direction corresponding to toward the open side of the conveyance path and away from the guided side of the conveyance path. The recording head is controlled to record the font data in the conversion area on the slip.
