摘要 |
The invention relates to a dot matrix printer (10) which comprises a printing unit (12) for printing a printing material and a feed area (20) for feeding the printing material to the printing unit (12). In the feed area (20) a gap (26) is formed through which the printing material is transported. In a print mode, the printing unit (12) prints the printing material, whereas in a feed mode the printing material can be fed from the feed area (20) to the printing unit (12) and the printing material is not printed. Further, the dot matrix printer (10) comprises a closing unit (32) which at least partially closes the gap (26) in the print mode. |
