Disclosed herein is a printer with a sheet feeding apparatus having a printer body incorporating a printing mechanism for printing onto continuous forms. A cutter (7) is provided close to a continuous forms discharging port on the printer case (1). Following the cutter downstream, there is provided a sheet feeding belt (30) that rotates at a rate higher than the feed rate of the continuous forms. Along the belt, there are provided a sheet traversing section (39), a sheet direction changing section (43), a sheet pushing section (45) and a sheet stacker (47), in that order from upstream to downstream. The sheet traversing section seizes and feeds horizontally each sheet cut by the cutter. The sheet direction changing section perpendicularly changes the feed direction of each cut sheet. The sheet pushing section pushes each sheet onto the sheet stacker where an orderly stack of sheets is formed. |
