ABSTRACT:
A printer and a print start method for a printer allows printing to be started at a desired position reliably even if the sheet to be printed upon is shorter than a standard length. The print start method includes determining the relative size of the sheet to be printed upon and then starting a print operation on a sheet by a print head after a sheet feed roller has released the sheet to be printed upon if the sheet being printed upon has a relatively long or standard length, and starting a print operation on a sheet by a print head before the sheet feed roller has released the sheet to be printed upon if the sheet being printed upon has a relatively short length.
