た。2. Description of the Related Art Conventional printing machines have used an optical linear encoder that is a combination of a light sensor and a slit band. Optical linear encoders require high-precision scale processing to increase resolution, which increases their price. Furthermore, if dirt or dust from printer ink or the like adheres to the scale surface, there is a problem in that light is no longer transmitted, resulting in incorrect values measured by the linear encoder. This has caused errors and malfunctions in the printer printing machine.

であれば自動的に記録面と検出ヘッドが精密に平行移動
する。When the cross-sectional shape of the recording medium is such that the magnetic recording surface and the bottom surface are parallel to each other, it has the following meaning. In other words, it is necessary to precisely move the recording medium detection head in parallel, but in order to facilitate structural assembly, by adjusting the surface that fixes the recording medium and the parallel movement mechanism, even if the magnetic recording surface and the bottom surface are parallel. The recording surface and detection head automatically move in parallel precisely.
