Abstract
When the length of a label created by cutting a print medium with print data printed thereon is insufficient, a printing device is prevented from omitting cutting processing. A printing device 1 includes a printing unit 106 which prints out print data on a tape 42 as a print medium, a cutting unit 107 which cuts the tape 42 with the print data printed thereon, a determination unit 108 which determines whether the length of a label to be cut by the cutting unit 107 is e more than a threshold value, and a control unit 101 which, when the determination unit 108 determines that the length is less than or equal to the threshold value, adjusts the length of the label so that the length of the tape 42 will be a length more than the threshold value.
Claims9
A printing device comprising:
- a printing unit which prints out print data on a print medium;
- a cutting unit which cuts the print medium with the print data printed thereon;
- and
- a processor, wherein
- the processor determines whether a length of a label to be created by the cutting unit cutting the print medium is more than a threshold value, and
- when determining that the length is less than or equal to the threshold value, the processor adjusts the length of the label so that the length of the print medium will be a length more than the threshold value.
A control method executed by a printing device including a processor, the control method comprising the steps of:
- determining whether a length of a label to be created by cutting a print medium with print data printed thereon is more than a threshold value;
- and
- when determining that the length is less than or equal to the threshold value, adjusting the length of the label so that the length of the label will be a length more than the threshold value.
A non-transitory recording medium recording thereon a computer-readable program executed by a printing device including a processor, the program causing the processor to execute the processes of:
- determining whether a length of a label to be created by cutting a print medium with print data printed thereon is more than a threshold value;
- and
- when determining that the length is less than or equal to the threshold value, adjusting the length of the label so that the length of the label will be more than the threshold value.
