Abstract

Abstract A printer is used for printing the output of an electronic balance, for example, having a printing roller as a component of a printing unit. The printing roller is adapted to be driven by a motor and to feed the printing sheet by its own rotation when a printing head presses the printing sheet against the printing roller and impresses a given print on the printing sheet.
