Printing device for generating display signals

摘要

A printing device for implementing printing on a medium includes a detection unit and a control unit. The detection unit is configured to detect loading of the medium into the printing device and withdrawal of the medium from the printing device. The control unit is configured to indicate contents displayed on a display screen. The control unit is further configured to generate a first signal of displaying a first screen on the display screen when the detection unit detects that the medium has been withdrawn from the printing device, and generate a second signal of displaying a second screen different from the first screen on the display screen when the detection unit detects that the medium has been loaded into the printing device.

1. A printing device comprising:
a printing unit configured to print on a medium based on a print job that specifies an attribute of the medium; a detection unit configured to detect loading of the medium into the printing device and withdrawal of the medium from the printing device; and a control unit configured to generate a first signal of a first screen on a display screen in response to determining that the detection unit detects that the medium is withdrawn from the printing device, and generate a second signal of a second screen different from the first screen on the display screen in response to the detection unit detecting that the medium is loaded into the printing device, in response to determining that the detection unit detects that the medium is withdrawn from the printing device, the control unit generating a signal of the first screen that provides a method of loading a plurality of types of media and generating a signal of the second screen for setting an attribute of the medium loaded into the printing device, and in response to determining that the detection unit detects that the medium is withdrawn from the printing device when the medium corresponding to the print job is run out in the middle of printing, the control unit generating, by using the attribute specified by the print job, a signal of the first screen that provides a method of loading the medium corresponding to the print job.
