Abstract
An IC memory module 33 for storing paper-related information is embedded in a core 31 of a roll paper member 30. A control circuit 50 accesses the IC memory module 33 embedded in the core 31 of roll paper member 30 via a transmission-reception antenna 202 at a timing, for example, when a power source is turned on, the roll paper member 30 is replaced, and power source is turned off, and acquires the paper-related information. The control circuit 50 controls the printing processing by taking account of the information acquired from the IC memory module 33.
