Abstract
A printer includes a transport part that transports a sheet, a printing part that prints on the sheet, a cutting part that cuts the sheet by moving a movable blade toward a stationary blade, and a controller that controls the transport part and the cutting part. When the sheet is label paper having an adhesive layer, the controller controls the transport part and the cutting part to transport the sheet rearward before moving the movable blade that cut the sheet, move the movable blade in a direction away from the stationary blade in a state where the sheet is fed in rearward, and thereafter transport the sheet frontward.

A printer comprising:
- a transport part configured to transport a sheet;
- a printing part configured to print on the sheet;
- a cutting part configured to cut the sheet by moving a movable blade toward a stationary blade;
- and
- a controller configured to control the transport part and the cutting part,
- wherein the controller, when the sheet is label paper having an adhesive layer, controls the
