Printing device

A printing device that performs printing on a medium that is long and to be cut after printing, the printing device comprising:

• a printing mechanism, configured to perform printing on the medium;
• a medium transport mechanism, configured to transport the medium in a longitudinal direction of the medium;
• a medium feed unit to which the medium wound in a roll shape before being transported toward the printing mechanism is attached;
• and
• a medium winding unit to which the medium wound in a roll shape after passing through the printing mechanism is attached,
• wherein
• when a width direction of the medium orthogonal to a medium transport direction that is a transport direction of the medium is defined as a medium width direction,
• a side on which the medium feed unit is disposed in the medium transport direction is defined as a transport direction upstream side,
• a side on which the medium winding unit is disposed in the medium transport direction is defined as a transport direction downstream side,
• a cut position in the medium transport direction of the medium linearly cut in the medium width direction after printing is defined as a medium cut position, and
• a cut range of the medium in the medium width direction at the medium cut position is defined as a medium cut range,
• wherein the printing mechanism is configured to:
• receive an image data that is data of an image to be printed on the medium,
• a first mark printing data that is data for printing a cut position mark for specifying the medium cut position on the medium, and
• a second mark printing data that is data for printing, on the medium, a first cut range mark disposed at a position corresponding to one end of the medium cut range in the medium width direction and a second cut range mark disposed at a position corresponding to the other end of the medium cut range in the medium width direction;
• print the image on the medium on the basis of the image data;
• print a plurality of the cut position marks at positions separated by a certain distance from the plurality of respective medium cut positions on the transport direction upstream side on the basis of the first mark printing data;
• and
• print the first cut range mark and the second cut range mark on the medium on the basis of the second mark printing data.
