Abstract:
A roll sheet with a continuous sheet wound in a roll form is rotated in a forward direction to supply the sheet to a printing unit. A sensor whose output is changed in accordance with a distance between the sensor and the sheet is used. A rotation direction of the roll sheet is switched from an opposite direction to the forward direction on the basis of the output of the sensor during rotation of the roll sheet in the opposite direction.

Claim (Index 8):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein the sensor is an optical sensor including a light emitting unit and a light receiving unit, and\n an angle formed between an imaginary line and a tangent line is an acute angle, the imaginary line being obtained by extending a light emission optical axis of the light emitting unit to an inside of the roll sheet, the tangent line facing in the normal rotation direction at a crossing point between the light emission optical axis and an outer circumference surface.
