Abstract:
The disclosure discloses a printer includes a controller. The controller performs a first feed control process, a temperature-difference calculation process, and a first printing speed determination process. In the first feed control process, in a state where an energizing device does not perform energization to the heating element, the driving device is controlled to perform non-energization feeding while causing a thermal head to contact a print-receiving medium. In the temperature-difference calculation process, during execution of the non-energization feeding, a first deviation between two of the head temperatures which are respectively detected by the first temperature detecting device at different timings is calculated. In the first printing speed determination process, the printing speed is determined on the basis of the first deviation.

Claim (Index 6):
A printer comprising:\n a feeder configured to feed a print-receiving medium at a desired feeding speed; a thermal head including a plurality of heating elements; an energizing device configured to energize said plurality of heating elements; a driving device configured to drive said feeder; and a controller, said controller performing: a coordination control process for coordinating and controlling said energizing device and said driving device and for forming a print onto said print-receiving medium at a printing speed synchronized with said feeding speed; an instruction receiving process for receiving an input of a predetermined specified feeding amount; a second feed control process for controlling said driving device to perform a feeding of said print-receiving medium by said specified feeding amount received in said instruction receiving process; a feeding amount detection process for detecting an actual feeding amount of said print-receiving medium, said actual feeding amount being fed by said feeder by controlling said driving device in said second feed control process; and a second printing speed determination process for determining said printing speed on the basis of a second deviation between said actual feeding amount detected in said feeding amount detection process and said specified feeding amount.
