Abstract:
1. A printing device with a manual paper feeding function, comprising: a manual paper feeding unit; a first paper size inputting means for inputting an input paper size of the manual paper feeding unit by an operation; a second paper size inputting means for detecting a detected paper size of fed paper and inputting the detected paper size; means for determining, when the input paper size is input by the first paper size inputting means, whether the detected paper size input by the second paper size inputting means corresponds with the input paper size; means for inquiring on a display whether to fix the paper size to the detected paper size when the means for determining determines that the detected paper size does not correspond with the input paper size; means for fixing the paper size when the means for determining determines that the detected paper size does not correspond with the input paper size, in accordance with a response to the inquiry on the display; means for fixing the paper size when the means for determining determines that the detected paper size corresponds with the input paper size; and a sensing means, wherein, when the input paper size has not been input by the first paper size inputting means and the detected paper size is a nonstandard paper size, the sensing means senses whether the manual paper feeding unit has been opened and the printing device carries out a printing process on each fed paper so long as the detected paper size is within a predetermined range.
