The printer includes at least a receipt paper feeding and printing mechanism and a journal paper feeding and printing mechanism each operated in synchronism by a control circuit. A mechanical switching means is provided in either one of the receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanism adapted to be operated for rendering it to be inoperative and a switch is provided connecting the one of the receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanism to the control circuit. The switch is operatively coupled with the switching means so that, when the one of the receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanisms is rendered to be inoperative by the switching means, the switch is opened so as to electrically disconnect the one of the receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanism from the control circuit.
Printer having at least a receipt paper feeding and printing mechanism and a journal paper feeding and printing mechanism each adapted to be operated in synchronism by a control circuit, wherein the improvement comprises mechanical switching means adapted to be operated for rendering either one of said receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanisms to be inoperative and a switch connecting said one of said receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanisms to said control circuit, said switch being operatively coupled with said mechanical switching means so as to be opened when said switching means is operated to render said one of said receipt and journal paper feeding and printing mechanisms to be inoperative.
