ABSTRACT:
A printer system includes a carriage for accomodating a printer head therein. The carriage is driven to travel in the lateral direction along the surface of a recording paper while the actual printing operation is conducted. A paper edge detection system is incorporated in the carriage for detecting a left edge of the recording paper when the carriage is driven to travel rightward. The print control system develops a print enabling signal when a preselected period of time has passed after the paper edge detection system detects the left edge of the recording paper.
