PCT No. PCT/JP95/02277 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 1, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 1, 1996 PCT Filed Nov. 8, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/14213 PCT Pub. Date May 17, 1996A printer comprises a frame having a pair of side walls spaced apart a given distance according to a given width size of a recording medium. A platen is supported between the pair of side walls and has a surface for supporting the recording medium. A printhead, operable in a printing position thereof to perform a printing operation on the recording medium, is supported between the side walls for tilting movement and displacement in forward/backward and rightward/leftward directions. A pressing body is supported by the frame for pressing the printhead into contact with the surface of the platen. When the printhead is in the printing position, the printhead is freely pivotable to permit automatic angular adjustment thereof following the surface of the platen so that the printhead can contact the surface of the platen with a uniform surface pressure.
