There are provided a printing method of printing an image of characters, figures or the like on a plate-making surface of a plate-making sheet, and an apparatus therefor. The apparatus feeds a plate-making sheet by a predetermined amount assigned to a forward end of the plate-making sheet when the forward end is detected by a sensor. When a mark for detection provided on the plate-making sheet is detected during the feeding of the plate-making sheet by the predetermined amount assigned to the forward end, the apparatus further feeds the plate-making sheet by a predetermined amount from a position of the plate-making sheet where the mark for detection is detected, to thereby locate the start of an image-forming area of the plate-making sheet. On the other hand, when the mark for detection is not detected, the apparatus continues feeding of the plate-making sheet. The apparatus executes printing based on print data in response to an instruction for printing while feeding the plate-making sheet, when the start of the image-forming area of the stamp-making surface of the plate-making sheet has been located.

A tape printing apparatus selects one of a plurality of kinds of print formats as a designated print format. Characters entered are arranged to form a character string. Print image data is formed by editing the character string based on the designated print format. Printing is carried out on a recording medium in the form of a tape being fed, based on the print image data. The plurality of kinds of print formats include any of a print format for printing by arranging each character of the character string in a direction other than a longitudinal direction of the printing medium in the form of a tape, a print format for printing by arranging the each character of the character string in a predetermined printable area, and a print format for printing by arranging the character string or the each character of the character string in a plurality of locations, and a print format for printing by changing an orientation of the each character in a direction different from an orientation thereof set in the character string.

A character information processor for carrying out the processing for printing an input character string, includes: a contact-command receiving section for receiving a contact command which commands to print at a character pitch of 0 between the adjacent two characters; and a printing control section for causing to print two characters, which are defined by the contact command, at a character pitch of 0. In addition, a character information processor for printing an input character string on a printed medium so as to exhibit a printing effect on the basis of the stored attribute data of printing effect, includes: a changed-contents available-extent receiving section for allowing a user to select an available extent of the attribute data of printing effect from a plurality of phased extents with respect to the input character string, each of the phased extents having a greater size than an available minimum size; and an attribute-data changing section for allowing to change the attribute data of printing effect in accordance with the changed contents received by the attribute-data changed-contents receiving section.
摘要:
A character information processor which can be applied to a tape printing device. The character information processor is provided with a read-only memory in which a table containing the levels of alternatives of a menu hierarchical structure set correspondingly to each edition function is stored. When an edition level is selected by an operator by keying, only edition operations, which are available at the selected edition level, are displayed on the screen of a display unit as choices. An example of the function of editing a character string is a function for enabling the restoration of a text, on which an edition operation such as an input operation and a deleting operation has been once performed. This function is implemented by providing a restoration buffer in the processor and by storing a character or a character string, on which an operation is performed, and a cause-for-restoration parameter representing a kind of an operation in the processor each time when an operation such as an input and a deletion is performed, and by performing a restoration operation according to the cause-for-restoration parameter. Further, regarding an operation of editing a printing layout, the processor has an operation of performing a text alignment by converting a full-size space, which is inputted by keying similarly as in the case of an ordinary character, into a half-size space to be treated as a space of a size, which is half of the size of a full-size character, when printing.
