<p>Printing on a tape is carried out using an ink ribbon having yellow, magenta, cyan and overprinting ink arranged thereon. First, the ink position of the ink ribbon is aligned with the print position of the tape, and one ink is transferred on the tape. This transfer is repeated for the yellow, magenta and cyan colors at the same print position to accomplish color printing. When color printing is completed, the position of the overprinting ink is aligned with the position of the tape, and the overprinting ink is overprinted on the color-printed area line by line. When the cut position of the tape reaches the position of a cutter, printing with the overprinting ink and feeding of the tape stop. In this state, the tape is cut. Then, the tape is cut when printing with the overprinting ink is carried out to the trailing edge of the color-printed area. <IMAGE></p> |
