In a printing device such as a laser beam printer utilizing a continuous-form recording sheet, a forming member is provided for forming an image on a continuous-form recording sheet. A feeding mechanism feeds the continuous-form recording sheet along a predetermined feeding path, and a fixing mechanism fixes the image onto the continuous-form recording sheet. A detecting device, located at the upstream side of the fixing member along the predetermined feeding path, detects a leading edge of the continuous-form recording sheet, and a controlling device controls the feeding member so as not to feed the continuous-form recording sheet when the leading edge of the continuous-form recording sheet is detected by the detecting member. Thus, it becomes possible to prevent more than one page of recording sheet from being wasted.
A printing device operable in one of a sheet setting mode and an image forming mode, said printing device employing a continuous-form recording sheet on which an image is to be formed, said printing device comprising:
A printing device for printing images which is capable of feeding a continuous-form recording sheet and forming images on the continuous-form recording sheet, the continuous-form recording sheet having a leading edge, said printing device comprising:
A printing device for printing images which is capable of feeding a continuous-form recording sheet which has a leading edge, said printing device comprising:
A printing device for printing images which is capable of feeding a continuous-form recording sheet and forming images on the continuous-form recording sheet, the continuous-form recording sheet having a leading edge, said printing device comprising:
A printing device for printing images which is capable of feeding a continuous-form recording sheet and forming images on the continuous-form recording sheet, the continuous-form recording sheet having a leading edge and a plurality of printing pages on which an image is to be formed, each of said pages being designated by a plurality of transverse perforations provided on said continuous-form recording sheet at predetermined spatial intervals along a longitudinal direction of the sheet, said printing device comprising:
