In this condition, the ink cassette can be attached and detached. 
When the paper cassette and the ink cassette are inserted, the paper cassette discriminate switch and the ink discriminate
switch identify the types of the cassettes and determine the presence or absence of the cassettes. If the combination is correct,
the system goes to the next step.

• When the print button is pressed, the press-up lever is pressed up and the recording paper is pressed on the pick-up roller. The

recording paper is sent to the right side of the figure by the rotation power of the pick-up roller, and the force of the paper presses
up the change guide. When the head edge of the paper reaches the paper top sensor, the sensor detects it, and the system goes
to the next mode.

• The thermal head is moved to the ink sheet side.
• The recording paper is caught between the capstan roller and the pinch roller, and is sent to the right side of the figure by the

rotation force of the capstan roller.
When the end edge reaches the paper top sensor, the specified amount is further sent to the right side after there.

• The ink sheet is taken up by the take-up reel, the black belt mark is detected by the sheet top sensor to perform a head search of

the ink sheet, and then the system goes to the next mode.
