    摘要: A powder container includes a container body to store powder. The container body includes an inner peripheral surface of a spiral shape and rotates around a longitudinal axis to convey the powder by the spiral shape in one direction. The inner peripheral surface has a substantially polygonal shape having rounded corners or a shape in which sides of the substantially polygonal shape are recessed, in cross section orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the longitudinal axis at a predetermined position. The inner peripheral surface has a region in which the cross-sectional shape at a position shifted from the predetermined position by a predetermined amount within one pitch of the spiral shape in the longitudinal direction is a shape obtained by rotating the substantially polygonal shape having the rounded corners or the shape in which the sides of the substantially polygonal shape are recessed, around the longitudinal axis.

    摘要: An ink ribbon cassette is inserted into and removed from a thermal transfer printer in the longitudinal direction of the thermal head. The thermal head is provided with a lifting member, while the ink ribbon cassette is provided with a contact element. The lifting member and the contact element of the ink ribbon cassette are configured to be in contact with each other during insertion and removal of the ink ribbon cassette, and thereby lift the thermal head to widen the space for the ink sheet to pass through.

    摘要: A printer includes a supply member that separates and supplies a recording sheet from a sheet storage means, and a recording-sheet turning member that can turn the recording sheet. A recording sheet supplied from the sheet storage means by the supply member is turned approximately 90 degrees by the recording-sheet turning member, and is then subjected to image formation in an image forming means.

    摘要: A printer and a method of controlling the printer. The printer includes a color ink ribbon and a thermal head for forming images on recording sheets and an accommodating portion accommodating the ink ribbon and the thermal head therein. The printer includes several paths for conveying the recording sheet including a circular path around the accommodating portion. Depending on the length of the recording sheet, the printer conveys the recording sheet along one of the several paths during a printing operation.

    摘要: A cartridge, detachably attached to a recording apparatus, includes a recording sheet container. The recording apparatus includes a sheet turning device. When a recording sheet is conveyed from the cartridge to an image forming section, the sheet turning device turns the recording sheet around an axis parallel to a normal line to the recording surface of the recording sheet. The longitudinal direction of the recording sheets contained in the recording sheet container is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the recording sheet being subjected to recording in the image forming section.
