Printer with touch panel for receiving contact trajectory pattern for producing a print

摘要

The disclosure discloses a printer including a feeder, a printing head configured to form desired print and producing a print, a discharge port disposed on one side of a housing, a display portion configured to display a print image, an operation portion disposed above the display portion, a detecting device configured to detect the operation input through contact to the operation portion, a first trajectory determining portion configured to determine whether or not a contact trajectory with a first predetermined pattern along a first direction has been input in a state where the print image is displayed on the display portion, and a printing control portion configured to control the feeder and the printing head when it is determined that the contact trajectory has been input so as to produce the print corresponding to the print image displayed and to discharge the print.

主权项

1. A printer, comprising:
a feeder configured to feed a medium to be printed; a print head configured to form desired print on said medium to be printed fed by said feeder and producing a print; a housing that constitutes an outer shell of the printer and incorporates said feeder and said print head; a discharge port disposed on one side of said housing and configured to discharge said print produced by said print head to the outside of said housing; a display portion disposed on said housing and configured to display a print image expressing print contents of said print to be produced; an operation portion disposed above said display portion and capable of receiving an operation input in a state where a display on the display portion can be seen through the operation portion; a detecting device configured to detect said operation input through contact to said operation portion; a first trajectory determining portion configured to determine whether or not a contact trajectory with a first predetermined pattern along a first direction toward said discharge port side has been input in a state where said print image is displayed on said display portion on the basis of a detection result of said detecting device; and a printing control portion configured to control said feeder and said print head when it is determined by said first trajectory determining portion that the contact trajectory with said first predetermined pattern has been input so as to produce said print corresponding to said print image displayed on said display portion and to discharge the print from said discharge port.
