Abstract:
A printing apparatus prints an image on a recording medium unwound by an unwinder. The recording medium is wound around a first winding shaft in order from a beginning edge to an ending edge of the recording medium. The wound recording medium is rewound, and the rewound recording medium is wound around a second winding shaft in order from the ending edge to the beginning edge of the recording medium.
Abstract:
A printing device includes an image former performing an image formation on a recording medium in a rolled shape, and including a first roller pair that rotates to convey the recording medium in the rolled shape, and, a supplier including a second roller pair that rotates to convey the wound-off recording medium in the rolled shape to the image former, and a controller that actively rotates the second roller pair. The image former includes a determiner that determines whether or not the first roller pair that conveys the recording medium in the rolled shape conveyed from the second roller pair has held the recording medium in the rolled shape. When the determiner determines that the recording medium in the rolled shape has been held, the controller stops the active rotation of the second roller pair.
Abstract:
A printing device includes a first ejector that ejects a recording medium to an exterior, a second ejector that enhances a rigidity of the recording medium more than by the first ejector, and ejects the recording medium to the exterior, and an ejector selector that selects either the first ejector or the second ejector.
Abstract:
A printing device includes a recording-medium-type reader that reads a type of a recording medium, a fixing-unit attachment that selectively attaches any one of a plurality of fixing units, the plurality of fixing units being different types from one another, and a conformity determiner that determines whether or not the type of the fixing unit attached in the fixing-unit attachment is conformed to the type of the recording medium read by the recording-medium-type reader.
Abstract:
A printing system comprising: a controller that generates image data and controls printing; a first paper supplier that unwinds and supplies a printing medium wound around a winding shaft; a first image-forming unit that forms a first image based on image data, on the printing medium unwound and supplied by the first paper supplier; a winder that winds the printing medium on which the first image-forming unit formed the first image around a winding shaft in order from a beginning edge to a ending edge of the printing medium; a second paper supplier that unwinds and supplies the printing medium the winder wound around the winding shaft, in order from the ending edge to the beginning edge of the printing medium; and a second image-forming unit that forms a second image based on image data in which top and bottom have been reversed and left and right have been reversed in the area where the first image was formed on the printing medium unwound and supplied by the second paper supplier.
