A printer enabling smooth loading of roll paper and cut-sheet forms with a simple operation is disclosed. A print head (6) is disposed in a transportation path for transporting a cut-sheet form. A guide frame (17) with a guide member (17a) projecting into the transportation path from the print head (6) is disposed on the cut-sheet form insertion opening side of the print head (6). A platen unit (16) with a platen (33) is mounted to rotate freely, and a frame member (30) is disposed on the platen unit (16). When the platen unit (16) is closed, the guide member (17a) of the guide frame (17) and a guide member (30b) of the frame member (30) touch each other, thus forming an ejection path guiding the roll paper (S) away from the junction with the cut-sheet transportation path. When the platen unit (16) is opened, the guide member (17a) of guide frame (17) and the guide member (30b) of frame member (30) separate, thereby enabling cut-sheet form insertion. <IMAGE> |
