PURPOSE:To inhibit a paper feed action when a paper feed is not required by mounting a carriage travel control means for retracting a carriage from a position for engaging with a paper feed trigger means during the carry action by a carry means. CONSTITUTION:When a carriage 6 travels beyond a recording area and a pressing member 36 moves to reach a position for abutting against a locking claw 28, the locking claw 28 rotates to separate a claw part 28A from a locking ring 27 and turn ON a spring clutch 26. In this manner, a cam 24, a separation roller 22, and a pressing roller 23, which rotate integrally with a separation roller shaft 21, are rotated by a drive force transmitted through a separation roller gear 25. One rotation of the separation roller shaft 21 makes the clutch again in ON states. In this construction, when a paper feed is not required, e,g., during an initial action at the time of turning ON a power, a paper feed action can be inhibited. |
