ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a printing apparatus for performing printing operating on a document containing a magnetic stripe means on which information with respect to the printing operation is recorded and/or read therefrom to aid in the automation of the printing process. Using prior art printing apparatuses, the operator had to perform many manual operations in order to make a new entry in the document. The present invention overcomes this deficiency by providing a document holder for accommodating the docu- ment to be printed on, and an automatic line positioning device in the form of a stepper motor to move the holder, and accordingly the document, to the line to be printed on as recorded on the magnetic stripe, at which time the pla- ten is advanced against the document, and the data printed on the line by the print head. Having obtained print line information from the magnetic stripe, the passbook is auto- matically positioned at the proper print line by the stepper motor, the platen is advanced, and the data is printed thereon. The planten is retracted and the passbook is re- turned to the home position, where the planten is again ad- vanced, and the magnetic head scanner assembly writes up- dated information on the magnetic stripe. The planten is retracted and the document may then be taken out, and is ready for insertion for a future printing operation to be made thereon in accordance with the instructions provided on the magnetic stripe.
