Abstract:
A printer includes a carriage, a carriage moving mechanism including a motor, a motor driver that controls the motor, a stop instruction device, and an interlock device. The stop instruction device transmits a stop signal for the carriage or stops a driving permission signal for the carriage when a predetermined stop condition is satisfied. The interlock device is interposed between the motor and the motor driver and shuts off the motor from the motor driver after a lapse of a predetermined delay time of transmitting the stop signal or stopping the driving permission signal. The motor driver controls the motor to decelerate the carriage in at least a portion of a period before the delay time has elapsed.

Claim (Index 4):
The printer according to  claim 1 , wherein the interlock device includes:\n a relay that includes an exciter and connects the motor and the motor driver to each other by power supply to the exciter; a relay controller connected to the exciter, the relay controller being configured or programmed to supply electric power to the exciter in connecting the motor and the motor driver to each other and to stop supply of electric power to the exciter when the stop signal is issued or when the driving permission signal is stopped; and a delay circuit including a capacitor connected to the exciter to supply electric power to the exciter by discharge from the capacitor after the supply of electric power from the relay controller is stopped, and to delay shutting-off of the motor from the motor driver during the discharge.
