A paper discharge section for a printer having a printer body includes first and second support portions mounted on the printer body. At least one of the support portions is slidable towards and away from the other support portion. A paper pushing down portion is mounted on the printer body and positioned intermediate the support portions. The first support portion can rotate between at least a first position at which the first support portion supports a first bottom side portion of the sheet of paper and at least a second position in which the first support portion does not support the first bottom side portion of a sheet of paper. A slidable edge guide for guiding a first side edge of a sheet of paper is provided and slidable towards the other edge guide. A linkage mechanism links the slidable edge guide to the first support portion to cause the first edge guide and first support portion to slide together.

A sheet feeder, or a printer incorporating the sheet feeder, has separation pads for separating a sheet to be fed by sheet feed rollers from the next sheet and a roller spring which produce urging force smaller than that produced by a spring of the separation pad. Idle rollers are brought into contact with the separation pads by means of the roller spring, thereby preventing the lowering of the next sheet. A sheet reset lever is pivoted so as to return the next sheet to a hopper. As a result, the sheet sheets stacked on the hopper in an inclined state is fed one by one through use of a separation pad method without increasing force for driving rollers and a back tension.

A method for discharging a sheet from a printer that includes feeding a first sheet from a sheet tray, conveying the sheet by the force applied by the driving roller until a leading edge of the first sheet contacts the trailing edge of a second sheet, thereby urging the second sheet in the feed direction such that the second sheet is no longer supported by supporting portions, and reversing the direction of the first sheet by reversing the rotation of the driving roller.

A printer including an automatic paper feeder having a stacker section capable of setting a plurality of sheets of paper therein, wherein a bottom of said stacker section is formed by a bottom itself of a printer case. In addition, the printer may include a hopper disposed in the stacker section to urge the paper upwardly, a pair of swinging members each having a separation pawl located above a corner of the paper and a pressing-down portion for pressing down the hopper, each of the swinging members being supported swingably about a shaft located between the separation pawl and the pressing-down portion and an operation lever having a pair of actuating portions capable of pressing downward the swinging members and supported rotatably above the stacker section.

An ink jet printer having a pair of supporting portion for supporting from below both side portions of a sheet to be discharged after characters are printed on the surface of a sheet. At least one of the pair of supporting portion includes a roller, which may be either a driving roller, which conveys discharging sheets from the sheet discharge section, or a driven roller, which rotates upon contacting a discharging sheet to convey the sheet from the sheet discharge section. As a consequence, the sheet is discharged smoothly, without reducing sheet feeding accuracy even when stiff sheets are printed upon by the printer.

In a printer, a bottom of an automatic paper feeder is formed by a bottom itself of a printer case; an operation lever is provided for operating a hopper and separation pawls arranged in a stacker section; a spring member is used as a changeover mechanism for a paper feed-in roller; an ink shielding portion is provided over an entire print area; the paper is discharged while forcibly urging the paper in a concave shape in which its printed surface is concaved; and a changeover is effected between a paper feeding operation and a pumping operation by a carriage at both ends of a carriage-moving area.

A liquid ejection head ejects liquid droplets toward a target medium while being moved in a first direction. A temperature detector detects temperature in a peripheral region of the liquid ejection head. A signal generator generates a first signal including first pulses operable to drive the liquid ejection head so as to eject the liquid droplets toward a unit region in the target medium at a first frequency, and a second signal including second pulses operable to drive the liquid ejection head so as to eject the liquid droplets toward the unit region at a second frequency which is lower than the first frequency. A mode switcher establishes a first mode in which the first pulses are applied to the liquid ejection head when the temperature detector detects that the temperature is no higher than a prescribed temperature, and establishes a second mode in which the second pulses are applied to the liquid ejection head when the temperature detector detects that the temperature is higher than the prescribed temperature. A scan controller moves the liquid ejection head at a first velocity when the first mode is established, and moves the liquid ejection head at a second velocity which is lower than the first velocity when the second mode is established.

A supporting part 11 arranged nearer to a head 1 than a pair of carrier rollers 3 and on the same side as a rib 2a based upon paper S for supporting the side Sb of the paper S toward the head 1 is provided. The supporting part 11 is formed so that it is wider than the rib 2a. The driving roller 3a1 of the pair of carrier rollers and the supporting part 11 are overlapped when they are viewed from a direction in which paper is carried. A ringed member 4 may be also provided in place of overlapping the supporting part 11 and the driving roller 3a1.
