Abstract:
Technology enabling accurately detected marks on a print medium according to the type of print medium is provided. A printer  1  has a media type identifier  110  that determines the type of medium; a mark sensor  76  that projects light and detects a mark on the medium; and an emittance controller  111  that sets the emittance level of the light the mark sensor  76  projects. The printer  1  can change the operating mode according to the type of medium M identified by the media type identifier  110 . In the white medium mode, the mark sensor  76  detects a mark MR with the emittance level set to a white medium emittance level. In the non-white medium mode, the mark sensor  76  detects a mark MR with the emittance level set to a non-white medium emittance level, which is higher than the white medium emittance level.

Claim (Index 9):
The printing device described in  claim 1 , wherein:\n the detection device projects light to a margin of the print medium, and the media type identifier, based on the amount of light projected to the margin of the print medium that is reflected, determines the type of print medium.
