ABSTRACT:
A printing apparatus and method for printing on a recording medium at locations being determined by encoder pulses of an encoder signal generated by an encoder including an encoder pending circuit. The encoder pending circuit outputs an encoder pending signal indicating the generation of one of the encoder pulses during a current printing operation. A controller coupled to the encoder pending circuit, receives the encoder pending signal and generates an enable signal after the completion of the current printing operation. The method of printing includes receiving one of the encoder pulses; determining whether the received one of the encoder pulse is generated during a current printing operation and completing the current printing operation before responding to the received one of the encoder pulses.
