Abstract
A dot printer includes: a platen and a printing head encased in a printer case in the vertical direction; a paper housing portion provided laterally of the platen; a feed roller disposed laterally of the printing head for feeding a paper taken out of a paper housing portion to the printing head; and a discharge roller disposed laterally of the printing head for discharging the paper outside of the case. With this construction, the printer can be made thin and can also be miniaturized.
