Continuous-medium-box feeding device having a stand-by table capable of feeding a continuous-medium box on a set table

A continuous-medium printing device comprising:

• a printing unit printing on a continuous medium fed from a continuous-medium box containing the continuous medium;
• and
• a continuous-medium-box feeding device feeding the continuous-medium box to said printing unit, the continuous-medium-box feeding device including:
• a set table capable of sliding between a first position and a second position adjacent to said first position, the first position enabling the continuous medium to be fed from the continuous-medium box to said printing unit, and the second position enabling the continuous-medium box to be removed manually;
• and
• a stand-by table capable of sliding between said first position and a third position adjacent to said second position, the second position and the third position enabling a continuous-medium box containing a continuous medium to be printed on next to be placed manually,
• wherein said stand-by table can feed the continuous-medium box on said set table positioned at said first position.

A continuous-medium printing device comprising:

• a printing unit printing on a continuous medium fed from a continuous-medium box containing the continuous medium;
• and
• a continuous-medium-box feeding device feeding the continuous-medium box to said printing unit, the continuous-medium-box feeding device including:
• a first table capable of sliding between a continuous-medium feeding position and a continuous-medium-box loading/unloading position, the continuous-medium feeding position enabling the continuous medium to be fed from the continuous-medium box to said printing unit, and the continuous-medium-box loading/unloading position enabling the continuous-medium box to be unloaded from the table and enabling a continuous-medium box containing a continuous medium to be printed on next to be loaded on the table;
• and
• a second table capable of being loaded with the continuous-medium box containing the continuous medium, the second table sliding together with said first table so that said second table is positioned at said continuous-medium-box loading/unloading position when said first table is positioned at said continuous-medium feeding position, and that said second table is positioned at said continuous-medium feeding position when said first table is positioned at said continuous-medium-box loading/unloading position.
