PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid a decrease in feed accuracy even when a downstream side need means collides against a spur roller when a front end of a paper is sent to the downstream side by a feed means at the upper side of the stream than a printing head. SOLUTION: A paper P is fed by an initial move amount I by an upstream feed means 28 so that a printing start position faces a printing head 36. The paper while printing is sent downstream at a predetermined feed speed. When a front end of the paper P reaches a position p1 in front of a downstream feed means 29, the predetermined feed speed is switched to a lower feed speed, and the front end of the paper is sent at the lower speed to be held between a feed roller 25 and a spur roller 26 at the downstream side. When the paper reaches a position p2 where the holding is completed, the lower speed is changed to the predetermined feed speed and the paper is sent again at the predetermined feed speed. |
