Abstract

The print substrate support (3) and longitudinal guides (4) for a print-head slider (7) are disposed in parallel at the invention printer. A controllable paper-guide drive motor (10) is furnished for the paper guide (9; 9a) and a drive motor (11) is furnished for the print-head slider (7). In order to be able to economically produce printers for different paper widths, and in order to eliminate problems of interfering radiation, a separated space (14) is furnished at the end of the paper guide (9; 9a) or respectively, of the longitudinal guide (4). At least one control-logic printed circuit board (15), an interface printed circuit board (16), the paper-guide drive motor (10) as well as the print-head-slider drive motor (11) are disposed in the separated enclosed space (14).
