Printing apparatus with cutter mechanism

摘要

A movable BF guide (30) is provided in a movable-blade receiving area into which a movable blade (13) slides along a fixed blade (12) white being pressed against the fixed blade in a process of cutting recording paper. The movable-blade receiving area is blocked by the BF guide (30) when the cutting process is not performed, thus preventing the entry of the end portion of the downstream connected recording paper into the movable-blade receiving area.
