Abstract
PURPOSE: To make it possible to report the time for maintenance adequately, by providing a means for reporting when the number of actual printing becomes equal to or larger than a preset value required for the maintenance.
CONSTITUTION: The number of printing at which the maintenance for ink ribbon is required is obtained by the tests beforehand, and the value is memorized in a printing number memory part 2a for maintenance requirement in a memory 2. A primary control circuit 6 converts the printing data supplied to a buffer circuit 4 by the control of a microprocessor 1, and the printing is performed by a printing head 9 through a printing head driving circuit 8. At this time, counting is performed by a counter 7 for every printing, and the contents are added in an actual printing number memory part 5 and memorized. When the contents of the memory becomes equal to or larger than the contents of the memory in the memory part 2a, the microprocessor 1 drives a light emitting element 16 or a speaker 17 through a driving circuit 15.
