When the slip paper is fed forward, the respective gears rotate in the directions indicated by
arrow a, arrow b, arrow c, arrow d, arrow e, and arrow f. This rotates the slip feed roller and slip
hold roller in the directions indicated by arrows g and h, feeding the slip paper in the direction
indicated by the arrow. When the slip paper is fed in the reverse direction, the operation is
performed in the opposite direction. (See Figure D-37.)
Validation Mechanism
Feeding validation paper
When you use validation paper, the force of the drive of the paper feed motor switches to the
slip paper feed gear using the J/S change mechanism.
The open/close operation (see "Platen open and close operation") moves the platen lever frame
in the direction of arrow a and the slip paper roller and platen are opened. Validation paper can
be inserted from the top of the printer mechanism in this state. When the trailing edge of
validation paper is detected, the detection signal is output. This signal is received, the lever
drive motor is started, and the platen lever moves in the direction of arrow b (in Figure D-8).
This causes the slip feed roller and the slip hold roller to grasp the validation paper. The platen
closes to ensure the appropriate platen gap, and printing is possible. When the printing of one
line of characters is completed, the paper feed motor is driven to rotate the slip feed roller to feed
the validation paper the prescribed amount in the upward direction.
Ribbon Feed Mechanism
The ribbon feed mechanism is comprised of the following parts. (See Figure D-38.)
❏
Transmission gear
❏
Ribbon reduction gear
❏
Ribbon drive gear
❏
Ribbon intermediate gear
❏
Ribbon take-up gear
❏
Ribbon take-up shaft
The rotation of the carriage transmission pulley driven via the carriage transmission belt is used
to feed the ribbon.
