Patent attributes
A printer-control apparatus, a printer-control method, and a printer according to the invention sequentially record a relative position of a printing medium specified from an accumulated carried amount of the printing medium and/or driving speed of a paper-feed motor for driving a printing medium carrying mechanism for carrying the printing medium for a period longer than reaction delay time at every time interval shorter than the reaction delay time as a time difference between a time when a front edge or a rear edge of the printing medium reaches an initial position of a swing pin of a mechanical paper detection sensor which detects the front edge and/or the rear edge of the printing medium by swinging operation of the swing pin and a time when the front or rear edge of the printing medium is detected.
