PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a normal user and a light user to smoothly share a same printer.SOLUTION: An operation terminal 400 is operably connected to a label printer 1 capable of selectively switching the drive mode to one of a storage device mode and a printing device mode according to an input of a mode switching signal. The operation terminal 400 recognizes the label printer 1 as a storage device when the label printer 1 is in the storage device mode, and recognizes the label printer 1 as a printing device when the label printer 1 is in the printing device mode. A CPU 410 of the operation terminal 400 accepts the selection of an operation object, a specific label printer 1, and outputs a printing device mode switching signal to the label printer 1 when the label printer 1 is determined to be connected to the operation terminal 400 as the storage device, in the case in which the label printer 1 is in an off-line state. |
