ABSTRACT:
A printing machine comprising a printing head, a drive unit for printing, a mode setting unit, a data supplying unit, and a controller that controls the print drive unit based on data supplied from the data supplying unit is disclosed. The printing machine may use any one of a plurality of printing heads having different type faces. The printing machine compensates for different line type faces and/or a different type-face layouts between heads. The print drive unit selectively moves one type face on the printing head to a predetermined position above a print paper and prints the character on the paper. The mode setting unit serves to set a mode associated with the printing head in use. The data supplying unit holds data about printing, including line data. When the data from the data supplying unit is line data, the controller selects the type face on the printing head for line printing associated with the line data, based on this line data and the mode set by the mode setting unit, then prints the selected character on the paper at a given position.
