A facsimile apparatus equipped with first paper-forwarding means (2) for forwarding a roll of recording paper (1); a cutter (3) for cutting the recording paper (1) forwarded by the first paper-forwarding means (2), along its width; second and third paper-forwarding means (4, 6) which are located between a printer (7) for printing an image and the cutter (3), and capable of being individually driven; guarding means (5) for guarding a bended portion of the recording paper (1); preventing means (9) for preventing portions of the recording paper (1) other than the bending-allowable portion from bending; and controlling means for causing the recording paper (1) to bend between the cutter (3) and the printer (7) using the first, second and third paper-forwarding means (4, 6) prior to printing, suspending the forwarding of the paper to the cutter (3) at the moment the length of the recording paper (1) which has passed the cutter (3) is found to have reached the length equal to the number of lines necessary for printing a single full page of an image, and cutting the recording paper (1) with the cutter (3) for a shorter time than that required for printing on the bended portion of the recording paper (1). <IMAGE> |
