TL;DR: In this article, the expansion/contraction of a paper width is taken into account when the result of marginless printing of a size smaller than the set paper width was to be obtained.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To take the expansion/contraction of a paper width into account when the result of marginless printing of a size smaller than the set paper width is to be obtained SOLUTION: A printer is provided with a first cutter for cutting in a right-angle direction to a recording paper transfer direction, and a second cutter for cutting a cut recording paper sheet by right angles to the cutting line The printer capable of obtaining the marginless printing result on the paper cut by the second cutter when receiving printing data which includes combined image data for printing variably subjected to doubling processing to realize the marginless printing, and a cutting instruction command generated correspondingly to the data for instructing a cut by the second cutter has a paper width sensor for measuring the set recording paper width A size of the expansion/contraction of the recording paper sheet is determined from a difference between a recording paper size estimated from the printing data upon receipt of an output of the sensor and the calculated paper width Data of the cutting instruction command is corrected accordingly, and a control for the second cutter is executed with the use of the corrected data COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
