Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF INVENTION The present invention relates to a printer of a type comprising means for transferring an image onto a recording sheet that is transported from an input path to a printing station and from said printing station to an output path, wherein said output path comprising a discharge mechanism for receiving said recording sheet in said processing flow direction and moving means for moving said recording sheet in a direction substantially orthogonal to said processing flow direction. PRIOR ART A printer of the aforementioned type is known from GB-A-2 219 281. DE-A-36 16 240 discloses a device for changing the direction in which a sheet is conveyed, for example in a paper folding machine. Therein, the two directions to and from the device both lie in the plane of the sheet. From US-A-4 679 953 it is known to provide in a paper feeding and ejecting device for a printing apparatus a cover over a discharge mechanism. Fig. 1 of the drawings is a perspective view illustrating the construction of the conventional printer, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the construction of the paper discharging mechanism. In these Figures, 301 represents a paper cassette for Storing the recording paper, 302 indicates the recording paper stored in the inside of this paper cassette, 303 denotes the platen roller around which the recording paper 302 is wound at the time of transferring the images, 304 shows a clamper set for its free movement in the direction R of the radius of the platen roller 303 mentioned above, and 305 marks the thermal printing head which performs the transfer of images onto the recording paper 302. 306 indicates the motor, and the revolutions of this motor are transmitted from the output gear 307, which is installed on the output shaft of the motor, to the gear 308 and then from the gear 310, which is mounted coaxially with this gear 308, to the gear 310, which is mounted on the rotating shaft 311 of the platen roller 303 mentioned above. Thus, the revolutions of the motor so transmitted drive the said platen roller 303 for its rotating motion. 312 shows the paper feeding roller which feeds the recording paper 302 mentioned above towards the platen roller 303, and 313 indicates the paper discharging roller which discharges the recording paper 302 on which the transfer of images has been completed. 314 represents an ink sheet, which is stored inside the ink cassette not shown in the Figures but stored inside the ink cassette, and this ink sheet 314 is made of transparent film coated with ink. 315 indicates the paper detecting sensor. 316 shows the upper cover for the paper discharging mechanism, and 318 shows a slider which pushes the recording paper 302 to the front face of the printer. 319 represents the optical sensor which detects the recording paper 302 upon its arrival at the prescribed position in the paper discharging mechanism. Next, the operations are explained with reference to Fig. 3 through Fig. 9. Fig. 3 shows the state of paper feeding. With the paper feeding roller 312 rotating in the direction shown by the arrow mark a, the recording paper 302 is transported forward and passes through the position of the paper detecting sensor 315. Then, the paper detecting sensor 315 detects the passage of the recording paper 302 and generates a signal as shown in Fig. 6. After approximately A seconds after this paper detecting sensor 315 generates the signal, the recording paper 302 is inserted between the clamper 304 and the platen roller 303. The clamper 304 moves in the direction R 1 towards the center of the platen roller 303, after the above-mentioned A seconds after the paper detecting sensor 315 generates the signal, and holds the recording paper 302 on the platen roller 303 by applying pressure to the said paper. Subsequently, the motor 306 revolves, and its motion is transmitted to the platen roller 303 via the gear 307, the gear 308, the gear 309, and the gear 310, and, with the rotation of the said platen roller 303 in the direction shown by the arrow mark b, the recording paper 302 is wound around the outer circumference of the platen roller 303. Fig. 4 illustrates the state of the transfer of images. The ink sheet 314 is pressed against the recording paper 302 by the thermal printing head 305, and, at the same time as the platen roller 303 rotates in the direction shown by the arrow mark b1 in the Figure, the thermal printing head 305 generates heat, by which the ink on the ink sheet 314 is sublimated and stuck on the recording paper 302. The printer executes the printing of images in color on the recording paper 302 by performing the fixing of the ink in this manner for each of the three colors, yellow, magenta, and cyan. The transfer of images in each of these colors is started at the moment when the photoelectric switch 316 has detected the clamper 304. Moreover, when the clamper 304 rotates, passing through the position of the thermal printing head 305, the said thermal printing head temporarily evacuates upwards lest it should interfere with the said movement of the clamper 304. Fig. 5 shows the state of the discharge of the recording paper. After the completion of the transfer of the images in three colors, the platen roller 303 moves in reverse in the direction shown by the arrow mark c in the Figure, and the recording paper 302 is then guided by the paper discharging guides are not shown in the Figure and is transported to the paper discharging mechanism by the paper discharging roller 313. While this operation is being performed, the slider 318 is in its home position as shown in Fig. 7. When the recording paper 302 comes to the prescribed position in the paper discharging mechanism as shown in Fig. 8, the optical sensor 319 detects the recording paper 302. Receiving a signal on the detection of the paper thus generated by the optical sensor 319, the slider 318 shifts its position in the direction A by means of the driving mechanism not shown in the Figure, pushing the paper in the direction A. The recording paper 302 pops out of the front panel not illustrated in the Figure, when the slider 318 has moved to the second position as shown in Fig. 9, and the paper discharging operation is finished thereupon. When the discharging of the paper is thus finished, the slider 318 moves in the direction B, returning to its home position. The conventional printer is constructed as described above. Yet, as static electricity is generated on the recording paper after the transfer of images onto it, the recording paper 302 may sometimes be stuck to the upper cover of the paper discharging mechanism, in which case it is highly probable that a jam of the paper happens. Also, the conventional printer is liable to the problem that its construction causes considerable difficulty in removing the jammed paper in case a jam of paper has occurred inside its paper discharging mechanism. Fig. 10 is a perspective view illustrating the construction and operations of a paper discharging mechanism of a conventional printer. In this Figure, 401 represents the recording paper, 402 marks the guide, which has a slope 402a as illustrated in the said Figure. 403a and 403b are transporting rollers forming a pair and provided in the upper and lower positions respectively, and these rollers are supported in a manner permitting their free rotating motion in the positions shown in the Figure. The transporting roller 403a mentioned above is given its force to work on the transporting roller 403b mentioned above by a force providing means not shown in the Figure. 404 indicates a motor, which works as the driving means for the transporting roller 403b mentioned above, and the pulley 406, which is fixed on the shaft of the motor 404 mentioned above, and 406 is a pulley fixed on the shaft of the above-mentioned transporting roller 403b. 407 is a wire, which is the means of transmitting the revolving force of the motor 404 from the pulley 405 mentioned above to the pulley 406 mentioned above. 408 is the upper cover for the above-mentioned guide 402. Next, a description is made of the paper discharging mechanism in the conventional printer constructed as mentioned above. The revolving power of the motor 404 is transmitted to the transporting roller 403b by way of the pulley 405, the wire 407, and the pulley 406, and, as the result of this transmission of the power, the transporting rollers 403a and 403b rotate respectively in the direction shown by the arrow mark a and the direction shown by the arrow mark b. In this state, the forward end of the recording paper 401 is put between the transporting rollers 403a and 403b, and the recording paper 401 is transported forward in the direction shown by the arrow mark c, being thereby pushed out onto the slope 402a. When the recording paper 401 is thus pushed out to the full extent by the transporting rollers 403a and 403b, the recording paper 401 is released from the capture by the above-mentioned transporting rollers 403a and 403b, so that the paper glides down the slope 402a mentioned above to be delivered out of the lower area of the guide 402. As described so far, the conventional paper discharging mechanism occasionally fails to discharge the paper with certainty since the recording paper sometimes does not slide well over the slope because of a difference in the coefficient of friction between the recording paper and the surface of the slope or since the recording paper sometimes stick to the slope in consequence of static electricity generated thereon. Therefore, a discharging mechanism, which operates with a separately provided discharging block, is employed to apply the driving force to discharge the recording paper as pushed out onto the guide by the transporting rollers. However, even if the discharging block is put into operation only after a certain duration of time has passed after the recording paper is fed into the transporting rollers, without ascertaining whether or not the recording paper has been fully released from the grip by the transporting rollers, the mechanism is liable to make an error in its operation in that the paper discharging block may set into its operation although the recording paper is not yet fully released, on account of various factors, from its engagement in the transporting rollers. Also, a jam of paper may occur as the result of the capture of the fringe of the paper in the guide or the upper cover in consequence of the skew of the recording paper at the time when the paper discharging block is put into its operation Figs. 11 to Fig. 17 illustrate an example of the paper transporting method incorporated in a conventional ordinary color thermal printer. In these Figures, 501 indicates the recording paper on which information is to be transferred in the form of printed images, 501 marks the clamper which grips and transports the recording paper 501, and 503 represents the platen roller for winding the recording paper 501 around it and for transporting the recording paper 501 and the ink sheet. 504 indicates an ink sheet, which places color on the recording paper 501, and 505 shows the roller for transporting the ink sheet. 506 marks the thermal printing head, which performs the transfer of images to the recording paper 501 by putting the ink sheet 504 against the said paper and applying heat to the said ink sheet. 507a and 507b show the paper feeding rollers, which transport the recording paper 501 from an outside area into the printer mechanism. 508a and 508b indicate the paper discharging rollers, which transport the recording paper 501 to the outside area. Moreover, Fig. 17 illustrates the color pattern for one image screen area, and, in this pattern, 510 shows the area for Y (yellow), 511 shows the area for M (magenta), and 513 shows the area for C (cyan). 515a and 515b represent the detecting part of the sensor. Next, a description is made of the operations of the equipment. First, Fig. 11 shows the state of paper feeding. The recording paper 501 is transported by the paper feeding rollers 507a and 507b to move forward to the clamper 502. At this point, the clamper, which has been open to the outside, closes toward the inner area, clamping the fore end of the recording paper 501. Now, the platen roller 503 begins its rotation in the counterclockwise direction, winding the recording paper 501 around the platen roller 503. When the said roller has rotated by approximately three fourths of one rotation, the thermal printing head 506 comes down by rotation and put the ink sheet 504 into close contact with the recording paper 501 wound around the platen roller 503. Also, heat is applied to the heater line of the thermal printing head, and the ink from the Y (yellow) sheet is first transferred to the recording paper 501 with the rotation of the platen roller 503. When the transfer of images in Y (yellow) is finished, the thermal printing head 506 temporarily shifts its position upward in order that it will not interfere with the passage of the clamper 502, and, when the clamper 502 finishes its passage, the thermal printing head 506 moves down as shown in Fig. 12, and the ink in M (magenta) is transferred this time from the ink sheet 504 to print the images in the same manner as in the transfer of Y (yellow). When the thermal printing head 506 comes down after the passage of the clamper 502 after the completion of the transfer of the images in M (magenta), the clamper operates to form the state of its opening to the outside, as shown in Fig. 14, and, as the images continue to be printed in the final color, C (cyan), with the ink applied from the ink sheet 504, the recording paper 501 arrives at the paper discharging rollers 508a and 508b, and the recording paper is transported to the outside area by the rotation of the said rollers. As described above, a color print obtained by transferring the three colors, Y, M, and C, in overlapping from the ink sheet 504 onto the recording paper with the rotation of the ink sheet feeding roller 505a and the ink sheet take-up roller 505b as shown in Fig. 15. In this regard, Fig. 16 and Fig. 15 illustrate the state with the case for the ink sheet removed. As mentioned above, it is necessary with the ink sheet on a conventional color thermal printer to perform the discharge of the paper by opening the clamper 502 at the time when the images are to be printed in C (cyan) at the final ink transferring process. Thus, the recording paper 501, which has become free at the time of its discharge fails to move forward together with the ink sheet 504 in the course of the transfer of images onto it because of the resistance the paper receives from the guide, etc., and this lag in the movement of the paper works as a factor causing such defects as a deviation of colors. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a printer of the type mentioned initially hereinabove, which is capable to faciliate discharge of the recording sheet. More specifically, it is an object of the present invention to provide a printer which is capable of preventing th e sticking of the recording sheet on the upper cover of its recording sheet discharging mechanism and easily removing the recording sheet held up in a jam in occurrence inside the recording sheet discharging mechanism.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION Reference will now be made in detail to the construction of the first preferred embodiment according to the present invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the subsequent description, the recording sheet is sometimes called recording paper. At first, with reference to Fig. 18 a description is made of a printer showing, in a preferred embodiment, features of the present invention. Fig. 18 is a perspective view of said printer. In this Figure, the reference number 361 represents an opening made in an upper cover 316 for the recording sheet discharging mechanism, and this opening is made smaller than the dimensions of the recording sheet 302 (hereinafter also called recording paper). Moreover, since the other parts of the construction of this embodiment are the same as those of the conventional printer shown in Figs. 1 to 9, their description is omitted here. Next, a description is made of the operations of the printer in this embodiment of the present invention. However, as the basic operations are the same as those in the example of the conventional printer, their description is omitted here. In case a paper jam has occurred inside the paper discharging mechanism, the mechanism according to the present invention makes it possible to remove the jammed recording paper with ease by moving the recording paper in the direction A shown in Fig. 19 with a hand put into the mechanism through the opening 361 provided in the paper discharging mechanism and subsequently, when the paper is put into the state shown in Fig. 20, by moving the said paper in the direction B. The dimensions of the opening 361 in the upper cover are set smaller than the dimensions of the recording paper, and it is thus made possible constantly to guide the four corners of the recording paper 301 with the upper cover 316, and this feature eliminates the paper jams likely to be otherwise caused by the provision of the opening 361. In addition, the enlargement of the dimensions of the opening 361 to a size somewhat smaller than the dimensions of the recording paper 302 makes it possible to prevent the occurrence of the phenomenon that the recording paper sticks to the upper cover 316 of the paper discharging mechanism by the effect of static electricity generated on the recording paper after the transfer of images to it and therefore makes it possible to discharge the recording paper in an unfailing way. Furthermore, a cylinder-shaped guide 316a is provided in the opening of the mechanism according to the present invention, and this structure prevents the hand from its accidental insertion into the dangerous parts, such as the high tension blocks, in the set when the hand is put into the mechanism from the outside of the set and also serves the purpose of strengthening the rigidity of the upper cover 316 of the paper discharging mechanism. As mentioned above, the seventh example of preferred embodiments according to the present invention is provided with an opening in the upper cover of the paper discharging mechanism, so that it is possible easily to remove the jammed paper in case a jam has occurred inside the paper discharging mechanism and also offers the advantageous effect of preventing the recording paper from sticking to the upper cover of the paper discharging mechanism by the action of static electricity developed on the paper after the transfer of images to it. Fig. 21 is a perspective view with some part cut away in illustration of the printer according to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 22 is a perspective view illustrating only those members actually put into operation and the construction of the driving mechanism which performs control over those members in the example of the referred embodiment illustrated in Fig. 21. Fig. 23 is a perspective view with some part cut away showing the parts, excluding the driving mechanism shown in Fig. 21, as disassembled. In Fig. 21 through Fig. 23, the reference numbers 401 through 408 represent the parts which are either the same as or corresponding to the parts in the conventional printer described above and shown in Fig. 10. Hence, these parts are merely indicated by the same reference numbers, and their description is omitted here. The reference number 409 indicates the paper discharging block, which can be put into its sliding movement along the groove in the guide 402 mentioned above, and the reference number 410 denotes the motor, which forms the driving means for setting the above-mentioned paper discharging block 409 into its sliding movement. The reference number 411 indicates the pulley mounted axially on the shaft of the motor 410 mentioned above. The reference numbers 412 and 413 indicate the pulleys respectively supported in such a way as to permit their free rotation on a shaft not illustrated in the Figure. The reference number 414 shows the wire, both ends of which are fixed on the paper discharging block 409 mentioned above and formed into a loop by way of the pulley 411, the pulley 412 and pulley 413 mentioned above, and this wire serves as the transmitting means for the transmission of the driving power to the paper discharging block 409 mentioned above. The reference number 415 shows the photoelectric switch, the reference numbers 416 shows the control circuit, and the reference numbers 417, 418, and 419 indicate the paper holding members. The parts of these paper holding members which actually get into contact with the recording paper 401 are made of elastic substance, and these paper holding members are capable of applying adequate pressing pressure to the recording paper 401 mentioned above, thereby correcting the skew of the recording paper 401, when it passes through in contact with the above-mentioned paper holding members 407, 418, and 419 and the guide 402. Moreover, the paper holding members 417 and 418 mentioned above correct the skew of the recording paper 401 the mentioned above at the time when the said paper is transported by the above-mentioned transporting rollers 403a and 403b, and the paper holding member 419 corrects the skew of the above-mentioned recording paper 401 when the said paper 401 is discharged by the above-mentioned paper discharging block. Now, the operations of the printer constructed in the manner described above are explained with reference to Fig. 24 through Fig. 26. However, the upper cover 408 is not illustrated in Fig. 24 through Fig. 26. First, in Fig. 24, the revolving power of the motor 404 is transmitted to the transporting roller 403b via the pulley 405, the wire 407, and the pulley 406, and, as the result of the transmission, the transporting rollers 403a and 403b are rotated respectively in the direction indicated by the arrow mark a and in the direction indicated by the arrow mark b, and, when the top edge of the recording paper 401 is fed into the slit between the transporting roller 403a and the transporting roller 403b, the recording paper 401 is transported in the direction indicated by the arrow mark c, having its skew corrected in this process of transport, and is then pushed out onto the guide 402. Then, as shown in Fig. 25, when the top edge of the recording paper 401 reaches the photoelectric switch 415 as the recording paper 401 is pushed out in its full length onto the guide 402, the control circuit 416 stops the revolution of the motor 404. Subsequently, as illustrated in Fig. 26, the control circuit 416 starts the motor 410 for its revolution, and the revolving power of the motor 410 is transmitted to the paper discharging block 409 through the pully 411,412 and 413 not shown and the wire 414, and, as the result, the paper discharging block 409 proceeds in sliding motion in the direction indicated by the arrow mark d, pushing the sides of the recording paper 401 on the guide 402. On this occasion, the recording paper 401 is discharged while its skew is corrected by the paper holding member 419. When the discharge of the recording paper 401 is thus finished, the motor 410 revolves in reverse, under control by the control circuit 416, in order to push the block 409 into its sliding movement in the direction opposite to the direction for the discharge of the recording paper 401 (i.e. in the direction indicated by the arrow mark d), and the motor 410 stops when the paper discharging block 409 is thus evacuated into its normal position. Now that the paper handling mechanism according to the present invention is so constructed as described above that it is capable of performing the discharge of the recording paper with certainty through prevention of such troubles as the jamming of paper since the printer performance of the discharge of the recording paper only after the recording paper is released completely from its capture by the transporting rollers after the full completion of the transport of the recording paper and performs all the operations while correcting the skew of the recording paper, performing the discharge of the recording paper. As for the Figure illustrating the process for the transfer of images for printing in ink, a description is omitted here since the process relates to a construction identical to the prior art shown in Figs. 11, 12, 13, and 14. With the printer according to the present invention, the process for the transfer of images in Y (yellow), M (magenta), and C (cyan) is performed by the repetition of a cycle of exactly the same operations, as shown in Fig. 12 and Fig. 14. The thermal printing head 506 moves down to the recording paper 501 wound around the platen roller 503 and sets the ink sheet 504 into its close contact with the recording paper 501, and, as heat is applied to the heater line for the thermal printing head 503, each of the colors is transferred to the recording paper 501 in overlapping to a total of three applications. When the thermal printing head 506 moves down upon the completion of the passage of the clamper 502 following the completion of the transfer of images in C (cyan), which is the color to be applied finally, the clamper 502 is set into a state of its opening to the outside, and, the clamper 502 remaining in this state, the recording paper 501 is transported, together with the transparent part of the ink sheet 504, in the direction towards the paper discharging rollers 508a and 508b, and, when the recording paper 501 reaches the paper discharging rollers 508a and 508b, the said paper is transported to the outside.
