Abstract

A driving circuit for printing devices in an electric cash register comprising a pair of first diodes which are connected in series in the normal direction respectively with a journal printing magnet and receipt printing magnet paired with each other and are connected with each other, a first switching transistor connected between the connecting point of the pair of first diodes and a negative (-) terminal of a current source, a second diode connected in the reverse direction between said connecting point and a positive (+) terminal of the current source, a second switching transistor connected between a common feeding line to the journal printing magnets and the positive (+) terminal of the current source and a third switching transistor connected between a common feeding line to the receipt printing magnets and the positive (+) terminal of the current source, to simplify the circuit formation and reduce the manufacturing cost.
