The medium holding portion holds the medium and open to allow the medium to be taken out and put in. The opening/closing cover opens and closes an opening in the medium holding portion. The feed path extends from the medium holding portion toward the head and feeding the medium. The sensor is provided in the feed path. The window portion is provided in a position corresponding to between the sensor and the head, in a wall portion of the case, and allows the inside of the case to be seen from outside. The blocking wall is provided between the sensor and the window portion, and blocks a light coming in through the window portion toward the sensor.

A control device using, as a learning target, a transporting apparatus, a rotation control section which controls at least one of a rotation speed of a first roller and a rotation speed of a second roller, and a position detection section which detects a position of the transport target matter, the control device including a state variable acquisition section which acquires a state variable and a detection result of the position detection section, the state variable being based on information of a state of the transport target matter and information of an environment to which the transport target matter is exposed, and a learning section which learns a control expression for calculating a control value of the rotation control section based on a dataset containing the state variable acquired by the state variable acquisition section and the detection result of the position detection section.

Disclosed is a label printer, having a first receiver for a printhead; at least two mutually different printhead units, each configured as a replaceable module and that each have a printhead, wherein one of the two printhead units is selectively received by the first receiver in an assembled state; a second receiver for a guide unit for the carrier tape having a counter-element to the printhead that is configured to hold the carrier tape with the labels in contact with the printhead; and at least two mutually different guide units for the carrier tape, each configured as a replaceable module and that each have a counter-element to the printhead that is configured to hold the carrier tape with the labels in contact with the printhead, wherein one of the two guide units for the carrier tape is selectively received by the second receiver in the assembled state.

A cutter unit includes a first frame, a fixed blade, a movable blade, a movable blade drive mechanism and a pressure mechanism. The fixed blade has a first cutting edge portion. One end portion of the movable blade has one end configured to cut a cut item in cooperation with the first cutting edge portion. The second cutting edge portion and the first cutting edge portion contacting with each other at a first point and a second point. Another end portion of the movable blade has a contacting portion in contact with the first frame at a third point. The first point, the second point and the third point define an imaginary triangle. The pressure member presses the movable blade at a pressure contact position so that the movable blade presses against the fixed blade. The pressure contact position is positioned substantially within the imaginary triangle.

A printer device includes a guide section, a first projecting section, and a second projecting section. The guide section is disposed to be opposed to a side surface of roll-like continuous paper and includes a guide surface for restricting movement of the continuous paper along a width direction of the continuous paper during conveyance of the continuous paper. The first projecting section is provided on the guide surface side of the guide section and rotatably holds a core section of the continuous paper. The second projecting section has an outer diameter larger than an outer diameter of the first projecting section and is movable between a supporting position where the second projecting section contains an outer circumference of the first projecting section and a storing position where the second projecting section is stored further on an inner side than the guide surface. In the supporting position, the second projecting section rotatably holds a core section of another continuous paper having a core diameter larger than a core diameter of the continuous paper.

A printing apparatus includes: a roll sheet container that contains a roll sheet around which a recording sheet is wound; a first sheet guide that makes contact with a first surface of the recording sheet; a second sheet guide that makes contact with a second surface of the recording sheet; and a transport roller that transports the recording sheet. The first and second sheet guides are disposed so as to face each other to form a sheet route along which the recording sheet is to pass. The transport roller transports the recording sheet that passed along the sheet route. The second sheet guide includes: a projection that protrudes toward the roll sheet container; and a pushing section that extends from the projection along an outer circumference of the roll sheet and in a direction away from the first sheet guide.

A roll holder is for a label roll of linerless labels wound in a crosswise manner. The roll holder has: a horizontally arranged spindle, which is held by a stand on at least one side, and a rotatable roll mount, which is oriented in parallel with the spindle, and which is mounted on the spindle. The roll mount is mounted on the spindle in a linearly displaceable manner using at least one linear bearing.

A liquid ejection apparatus is provided that includes a plurality of liquid ejection head units that are configured to eject liquid onto a conveyed object being conveyed; a detection unit that is provided with respect to each liquid ejection head unit of the plurality of liquid ejection head units and is configured to output a detection result indicating at least one of a position, a moving speed, and an amount of movement of the conveyed object with respect to a conveying direction of the conveyed object; and a control unit configured to control each liquid ejection head unit among the plurality of liquid ejection head units to eject liquid at a timing based on a plurality of the detection results of a plurality of the detection units.

A recording device includes a recording head, a transport roller set, and a controller that controls a driving source that drives a transport driving roller. The controller judges whether a rear end that is an upstream end of a medium in a transport direction crosses a kicking region set in a range present downstream of a nipping position of the transport roller set in a transport direction. When the controller judges that the rear end does not cross the kicking region, the controller adjusts a feeding amount for at least one of a plurality of transport operations to be performed until the rear end reaches the kicking region in such a manner that the rear end of the medium crosses the kicking region.

A medium supplying device includes a housing part configured to house a rolled medium obtained by winding a sheet, a pair of rollers disposed at a predetermined interval in the housing part, and a supplying belt with an endless annular shape provided around the pair of rollers and configured to rotate along with rotation of the pair of rollers. An outer peripheral surface of the rolled medium is supported with the supplying belt, and the supplying belt is driven into rotation to rotate the rolled medium to supply the sheet.
