PRINTER COMPRISING A GUIDE DEVICE FOR A RECORD CARRIER

摘要

In a printer, for example, an ink jet printer comprising a guide device for a record carrier, the record carrier is fed by means of a transport roller to an adjoining supporting surface along which a printing head is displaceable. The supporting surface extends in a plane which segmentally intersects the path of the record carrier around the transport roller. At the area of the supporting surface, a ruler presses against the record carrier without bringing it directly into contact with the supporting surface, so that the record carrier becomes S-shaped upon passage from its path around the transport roller to the supporting surface.
