Abstract
A stencil printer of the present invention perforates, or cuts, a thermosensitive stencil with a thermal head to thereby make a master. The stencil printer includes a stencil distinguishing device for automatically identifying the kind of the stencil or a master setting device for allowing the operator of the printer to set the kind of the stencil. An adjusting device selects, among master making conditions experimentally determined beforehand, a master making condition matching with information output from the stencil distinguishing device or the stencil setting device. The operator can easily change the master making condition in accordance with the kind of a stencil to use.
Claims28
A stencil printer for perforating a thermosensitive stencil implemented as a stencil roll with heating means to thereby make a master, said stencil printer comprising:
- stencil distinguishing means for identifying a kind of the stencil by sensing an identification member provided on the stencil roll;
- and
- adjusting means for selecting, among master making conditions experimentally determined beforehand, a master making condition matching with information output from said stencil distinguishing means.
A stencil printer for perforating a thermosensitive stencil implemented as a stencil roll with a heating device to thereby make a master, said stencil printer comprising:
- a stencil distinguishing device configured to identify a kind of the stencil by sensing an identification member provided on the stencil roll;
- and
- an adjusting device configured to select, among master making conditions experimentally determined beforehand, a master making condition matching with information output from said stencil distinguishing device.
