<p>A printing apparatus includes N heating elements (33-1 to 33-N) arranged in a line, and prints data on a label (1) by each line by selectively supplying a current to these heating elements (33-1 to 33-N) in accordance with printing data. The printing apparatus has a first memory (25) for storing a plurality of line printing data constituting printing information including special information, a second memory (26) for storing a plurality of line printing data constituting ordinary printing information, and a control unit (18, 27, 29) which generates drive data corresponding to a logical sum of the one line printing data from the first memory (MA1) and that from the second memory (MA2) so as to cause the heating elements (33-1 to 33-N) to be selectively energized during the first printing period of each printing cycle, and generates the drive data corresponding to the one line printing data from the first memory (MA1) so as to cause the heating (33-1 to 33-N) to be selectively energized during the second printing period of each printing cycle.</p> |
