<p>The present invention relates to a printer such as an electronic cash register used for POS, particularly relates to a printer provided with a cutter for cutting recording paper in arbitrary length or cutting recording paper with a part left after cutting and the above printer is provided in that the dispersion of force required for tearing off recording paper is reduced, a torn trace of a left part after cutting of recording paper looks nice and in addition, the position of a left part after cutting of recording paper can be arbitrarily set respectively without increasing the size in the direction of the width of recording paper. The cutter 4 according to the present invention is provided with a fixed blade arranged in the vicinity of one side of a transport path for carrying recording paper, a first movable blade moved from a position where said first movable blade is opposed to said fixed blade with said transport path toward a direction approximately orthogonal to said transport path to slidably cross said fixed blade, a second movable blade arranged adjacent to said first movable blade at a predetermined position in a direction of the width of recording paper, which is moved from a position where said second movable blade is opposed to said fixed blade with said transport path toward a direction approximately orthogonal to said transport path to slidably cross said fixed blade, and a driving mechanism for moving said first movable blade (8) and said second movable blade. <IMAGE></p> |
