A printer with a cutter is provided that can discharge cut-offs in a stable condition. A printer includes a transportation path, a transportation mechanism that conveys a recording medium along the transportation path, a fixed knife having a cutting edge, a movable knife having a cutting edge and moving between a standby position and a cutting-completed position, and an exit disposed along the transportation path. The exit includes a narrow opening defined by a first elongated side offset from the transportation path beyond the movable-knife cutting edge in the cutting-completed position, and a second elongated side opposite the first elongated side and offset from the transportation path opposite to the first elongated side. The second elongated side can be located immediately adjacent to the transportation path, for example, by less than or equal to 2 mm. |
