ABSTRACT:
In printing apparatus in which a line of characters is printed on a record medium, by means of differentially timed operation of a line of print hammers, as the characters pass predetermined columnar positions of the record medium, the character font size can be changed. On each change of front size, a control circuit adjusts the timing of the actuation of the hammers so that the number of printing cycles necessary to print a line of characters is varied according to the font size used.
