ABSTRACT:
A printer capable of selective printing of a relatively narrow uncut sheet or a relatively wide cut sheet has a paper feeding apparatus for such selective printing. The paper feeding apparatus includes an uncut sheet feeding mechanism for feeding the uncut sheet from a roll of the uncut sheet to a gap formed between a printing head and a platen, and a cut sheet feeding mechanism for feeding the cut sheet to a gap between the printing head and the uncut sheet on the platen. The uncut sheet feeding mechanism and the cut sheet feeding mechanism are selectively driven to feed either the uncut sheet or the cut sheet.
