PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printer having an automatic power turn-off function in which a power supply input line is turned off automatically when print operation is not performed for a predetermined time or longer and power consumption is eliminated by bringing the waiting power to zero. SOLUTION: When print operation is not performed for a predetermined time or longer, a carrier 10 is moved from a home position to the side opposite to a normal print operation region and a main switch 4 is operated thus turning off a power supply input line. Consequently, a main power supply is turned off and waiting power consumption becomes zero.
