Abstract:
A thermal printer has an identification information holding circuit that has identification information, a line thermal head in which the identification information holding circuit is mounted, a control signal line through which a signal that controls the line thermal head is transmitted, a memory that stores specification information about the line thermal head corresponding to the identification information, and a controller that acquires the identification information that has been output from the identification information holding circuit through the control signal line and also acquires the specification information about the line thermal head from the memory according to the acquired identification information.

Claim (Index 8):
A printing apparatus comprising:\n a thermal head in which a logical circuit that has identification information is mounted; a plurality of signal lines through which signals that control driving of the thermal head are conveyed; a memory that stores specification information about the thermal head in relation to the identification information; and a processor that acquires the identification information through one of the plurality of signal lines, the identification information having been output from the logical circuit, and also acquires the specification information related to the acquired identification information from the memory; wherein of the plurality of signal lines, the signal line through which the identification information is conveyed is a signal line through which print data is conveyed to the thermal head.
