Abstract

A recorder comprises a recorder body including a case, holding means for holding continuous record paper sources such as, an elongated record form stack, and a record paper roll, guide structure for guiding a record paper taken out of the record paper source, and a record head for recording on said record paper fed through the guide structure, and a cover member for converting at least a portion of the holding means, the guide structure and the record head, the cover member being removably attached to the case. A non-continuous paper sheet, which is fed to the record head through a slot in the cover member along a feed path different from the continuous record paper, may be used in the recorder. A detector is also provided for detecting the end of the continuous record paper.
