壓紙滾筒4將饋送馬達15作為驅動源而旋轉。壓紙滾筒4旋轉饋送與印刷頭5之間所夾持之帶Tp。印刷頭5對帶Tp印刷字元、符號及圖形等圖像。印刷頭5以與壓紙滾筒4隔著饋送路徑13而面對之方式設置。印刷頭5為熱式者。藉由印刷頭5發熱而對在饋送路徑13上不斷饋送之帶Tp印刷圖像。各圖像係作為點陣圖字型而顯示。 The platen roller 4 rotates the feed motor 15 as a driving source. The platen 4 feeds the belt Tp sandwiched between the platen 4 and the print head 5. The print head 5 pairs Tp to print characters, symbols, and graphics. The print head 5 is provided so as to face the platen cylinder 4 with the feeding path 13 therebetween. The print head 5 is a thermal type. An image is printed on the tape Tp continuously fed on the feeding path 13 by the print head 5 generating heat. Each image is displayed as a bitmap font.
帶切割器6設置於壓紙滾筒4及印刷頭5之下游側。帶切割器6進行將帶Tp沿寬度方向切斷之切斷動作。切割器按鈕7係用以藉由手動操作而使帶切割器6進行切斷動作者。藉由帶切割器6進行切斷動作而分離出帶Tp之已印刷部分，製作標籤A(參照圖4)。 The tape cutter 6 is provided on the downstream side of the platen 4 and the print head 5. The tape cutter 6 performs a cutting operation to cut the tape Tp in the width direction. The cutter button 7 is used to perform a cutting operation of the tape cutter 6 by manual operation. The printed portion of the tape Tp is separated by the cutting operation of the tape cutter 6 to produce a label A (see FIG. 4).
再者，帶印刷裝置1係與下述之標籤製作選單不同，具備定長印刷功能。定長印刷功能係指例如用以製作以毫米為單位自鍵盤8輸入之長度之標籤A者。 The tape printing device 1 is different from the label making menu described below, and has a fixed-length printing function. The fixed-length printing function refers to, for example, a label A for making a length input from the keyboard 8 in a unit of millimeters.
於以下之說明中，對帶印刷裝置1中準備之作為印刷選單之一的標籤製作選單、及藉由該印刷選單而製作之標籤A(排程標籤)進行敍述。 In the following description, a label creation menu as one of the printing menus prepared in the tape printing apparatus 1 and a label A (scheduled label) created by the printing menu will be described.
如圖4所示，藉由標籤製作選單而製作之標籤A係貼附於例如設 置於記事本中之方格式日曆Ca者。標籤A於方格式日曆Ca中顯示行事等之內容及期間。 As shown in FIG. 4, the label A produced by the label creation menu is attached to, for example, a device Place the square format Ca in the notepad. The label A displays the content and period of the operation and the like on the square-format calendar Ca.
再者，於方格式日曆Ca中，縱橫並排設置有複數個格子S。於橫方向排列之複數個格子S中，分別標註有以「天」為單位而連續之日期E。格子S之橫方向之長度即格子長Ls於複數個格子S間大致均勻。又，複數個格子S以「週」為單位而劃分為複數個格子行SS。亦即，於各格子行SS中，於橫方向排列有複數個格子S。 Furthermore, in the square format calendar Ca, a plurality of grids S are arranged side by side. A plurality of cells S arranged in the horizontal direction are marked with consecutive days E in units of "day", respectively. The length in the lateral direction of the lattice S, that is, the lattice length Ls, is approximately uniform among the plurality of lattices S. The plurality of grids S are divided into a plurality of grid rows SS in units of "week". That is, in each lattice row SS, a plurality of lattices S are arranged in the horizontal direction.
再者，「天」單位為「第1時間單位」之一例。日期E為「標註時間」之一例。格子S為「區塊」之一例。格子行SS為「區塊行」之一例。 The unit of "day" is an example of the "first time unit". The date E is an example of "time stamping". The grid S is an example of a "block". The grid row SS is an example of a "block row".
例如作為顯示2宿3天之旅行之標籤A，帶印刷裝置1製作具有3個格子S之量之標籤長La、且顯示為「旅行」之標籤A。使用者將所製作之標籤A貼附於方格式日曆Ca之自1月15日至1月17日為止之格子S。藉此，於方格式日曆Ca中，可顯示自1月15日至1月17日之去旅行之預定(或已旅行過)。 For example, as a label A that shows a trip of 2 days and 3 days, the tape printing device 1 creates a label A having a length of three grids S and a label A that is displayed as "travel". The user attaches the produced label A to the grid S of the square format calendar Ca from January 15 to January 17. As a result, the square-shaped calendar Ca can display the travel plans (or traveled) from January 15 to January 17.
再者，將貼附標籤A之格子S中之自最初之日期E即開始日Ea(圖4之例中為15日)至最後之日期E即結束日Eb(圖4之例中為17日)為止之期間稱為貼附對象期間P。於圖4之例中，貼附對象期間P為3天。 In addition, in the grid S to which the label A is attached, the first date E is the start date Ea (15 days in the example in FIG. 4) and the last date E is the end date Eb (17 days in the example in FIG. 4). The period up to) is referred to as the attachment target period P. In the example of FIG. 4, the target period P is 3 days.
如圖5所示，帶印刷裝置1於標籤製作選單中，分別印刷圖符F、第1文本T1、及第2文本T2。帶印刷裝置1亦可省略圖符F、第1文本T1及第2文本T2中之任1個或2個以上而印刷(圖4所示之標籤A係省略圖符F與第1文本T1及第2文本T2之一者而成)。 As shown in FIG. 5, the tape printing device 1 prints an icon F, a first text T1, and a second text T2 on a label creation menu, respectively. The printing device 1 may be printed by omitting one or more of the icon F, the first text T1, and the second text T2 (label A shown in FIG. 4 omits the icon F and the first text T1 and One of the second text T2).
進而，如圖5(b)所示，帶印刷裝置1亦可印刷作為圖符F之一種之邊框圖像Fa(線邊框)。邊框圖像Fa沿帶Tp之長度方向自前端側依序具有第1圖標C1、第2圖標C2及第3圖標C3。 Further, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), the tape printing device 1 may print a frame image Fa (line frame) as one of the icons F. The frame image Fa has a first icon C1, a second icon C2, and a third icon C3 in this order from the front end side in the length direction of the tape Tp.

That is, the unit length storage unit 21 memorizes the grid length Ls based on the input operation of the notepad frame width that has been accepted by the keyboard 8 in the notepad frame width input screen D2 of the setting menu described below.
單位數取得部22取得貼附對象期間P作為基準單位之數量。即，單位數取得部22將下述期間選擇畫面D11顯示於顯示器9。單位數取得部22根據於期間選擇畫面D11中已由鍵盤8受理之天數之選擇操作而取得貼附對象期間P。 The number-of-units acquisition unit 22 obtains the number of units P as the reference unit. That is, the unit number acquisition unit 22 displays a period selection screen D11 described below on the display 9. The number-of-units acquisition unit 22 obtains the target period P based on the selection operation of the number of days that has been accepted by the keyboard 8 on the period selection screen D11.
標籤長設定部23根據記憶於單位長記憶部21中之格子長Ls、與藉由單位數取得部22所取得之貼附對象期間P(格子S之數量)而設定標籤長La。即，標籤長設定部23算出格子長Ls與貼附對象期間P之積，且將所算出之積設定為標籤長La。 The label length setting unit 23 sets the label length La based on the lattice length Ls stored in the unit length storage unit 21 and the attachment target period P (the number of the lattice S) obtained by the unit number acquisition unit 22. That is, the label length setting unit 23 calculates the product of the lattice length Ls and the application target period P, and sets the calculated product as the label length La.
圖符設定部24將下述之邊框圖像選擇畫面D13或標記選擇畫面D14等顯示於顯示器9。圖符設定部24根據於邊框圖像選擇畫面D13或標記選擇畫面D14中已由鍵盤8受理之選擇操作而設定圖符F。 The icon setting unit 24 displays a frame image selection screen D13, a mark selection screen D14, and the like described below on the display 9. The icon setting unit 24 sets the icon F based on a selection operation that has been accepted by the keyboard 8 in the frame image selection screen D13 or the mark selection screen D14.
文本設定部25將下述之第1文本輸入畫面D15及第2文本輸入畫面D16顯示於顯示器9。文本設定部25根據於第1文本輸入畫面D15及第2文本輸入畫面D16中已由鍵盤8受理之文本之輸入操作而設定第1文本T1及第2文本T2。 The text setting unit 25 displays a first text input screen D15 and a second text input screen D16 described below on the display 9. The text setting unit 25 sets the first text T1 and the second text T2 based on an input operation of a text that has been accepted by the keyboard 8 in the first text input screen D15 and the second text input screen D16.
印刷資料產生部26根據所設定之標籤長La、圖符F、第1文本T1及第2文本T2而產生印刷資料。根據所產生之印刷資料，壓紙滾筒4饋送與標籤長La相當之長度量之帶Tp，並且印刷頭5將圖符F、第1文本T1及第2文本T2印刷於帶Tp。藉此，獲得具有與所設定之標籤長La相當之長度、且印刷有所設定之圖符F、第1文本T1及第2文本T2之標籤A。 The print data generating unit 26 generates print data based on the set label length La, the icon F, the first text T1, and the second text T2. According to the generated print data, the platen 4 feeds a tape Tp of a length corresponding to the label length La, and the print head 5 prints the icon F, the first text T1, and the second text T2 on the tape Tp. Thereby, a label A having a length corresponding to the set label length La and printed with the set icon F, the first text T1, and the second text T2 is obtained.
一面參照圖9，一面使用圖8對設定選單進行說明。於設定選單中，以格子長Ls之設定為首而進行各種參數或條件之設定。 Referring to FIG. 9, the setting menu will be described using FIG. 8. In the setting menu, various parameters or conditions are set based on the setting of the grid length Ls.

When the tape printing device 1 selects an option other than "notepad border width" on the setting screen D1 (S2: Yes, S3: Post-blank adjustment or battery type), a setting process corresponding to the selection is performed ( S5, S6), and then the setting menu is ended.
使用者預先測定貼附標籤A之方格式日曆Ca之格子長Ls，且將該測定結果於記事本邊框寬度輸入畫面D2中作為記事本邊框寬度而輸入。再者，於記事本邊框寬度輸入畫面D2中，除自所顯示之選項中藉由游標鍵而選擇記事本邊框寬度之外，亦可自字元鍵輸入記事本邊框寬度之數值。若輸入記事本邊框寬度(S7：是)，則單位長記憶部21將所輸入之記事本邊框寬度作為格子長Ls而記憶(S8)。其後，帶印刷裝置1結束設定選單。 The user measures the grid length Ls of the square-format calendar Ca to which the label A is attached, and inputs the measurement result as a notepad frame width in the notepad frame width input screen D2. Furthermore, in the notepad frame width input screen D2, in addition to selecting the notepad frame width by using the cursor keys from the displayed options, you can also enter the value of the notepad frame width from the character key. When the note frame width is input (S7: YES), the unit length storage unit 21 stores the input note frame width as the lattice length Ls (S8). Thereafter, the tape printing apparatus 1 ends the setting menu.
一面參照圖12，一面使用圖10及圖11對標籤製作選單進行說明。 Referring to FIG. 12, the label creation menu will be described using FIGS. 10 and 11.
若藉由特定之鍵操作而開始標籤製作選單，則單位數取得部22將期間選擇畫面D11顯示於顯示器9(S11)。使用者自顯示於期間選擇畫面D11之選項中選擇貼附對象期間P之天數(就圖4所示之例而言為3天)。若選擇天數(S12：是)，則單位數取得部22取得所選擇之天數作為貼附對象期間P(S13)。 When the label creation menu is started by a specific key operation, the unit number acquisition unit 22 displays the period selection screen D11 on the display 9 (S11). From the options displayed on the period selection screen D11, the user selects the number of days (3 days in the example shown in FIG. 4) of the target period P to be attached. When the number of days is selected (S12: YES), the unit number acquisition unit 22 acquires the selected number of days as the attachment target period P (S13).
繼而，圖符設定部24將圖符選擇畫面D12顯示於顯示器9(S14)。於圖符選擇畫面D12中若選擇「線邊框」(S15：是，S16：線邊框)，則圖符設定部24將邊框圖像選擇畫面D13顯示於顯示器9(S17)。使用者於邊框圖像選擇畫面D13中，除自所顯示之選項中藉由游標鍵而選擇邊框圖像Fa之外，亦可藉由自數字鍵輸入邊框圖像Fa之編號而選擇邊框圖像Fa。若選擇邊框圖像Fa(S18：是)，則圖符設定部24將所選擇之邊框圖像Fa設定為圖符F(S19)。於步驟S19之後，前進至步驟S23。 Next, the icon setting unit 24 displays the icon selection screen D12 on the display 9 (S14). If "line border" is selected on the icon selection screen D12 (S15: Yes, S16: line border), the icon setting unit 24 displays the frame image selection screen D13 on the display 9 (S17). In the frame image selection screen D13, in addition to selecting the frame image Fa by the cursor keys from the displayed options, the user can also select the frame image by entering the number of the frame image Fa from the number keys. Fa. When the frame image Fa is selected (S18: YES), the icon setting unit 24 sets the selected frame image Fa as an icon F (S19). After step S19, the process proceeds to step S23.
另一方面，於圖符選擇畫面D12中若選擇「外出」(S15：是，S16：外出)，則圖符設定部24將標記選擇畫面D14顯示於顯示器9(S20)。使用者自選項中選擇所需之設計之標記。再者，於標記之選項中，準備圖5(a)所示之表示超市等外出目的地者。若選擇標記(S21：是)，則圖符設定部24將所選擇之標記設定為圖符F(S22)。於步驟S22之後，前進至步驟S23。 On the other hand, if "out" is selected in the icon selection screen D12 (S15: Yes, S16: Out), the icon setting unit 24 displays the mark selection screen D14 on the display 9 (S20). The user selects the desired design mark from the options. In addition, among the marked options, a person showing a destination such as a supermarket as shown in FIG. 5 (a) is prepared. If a flag is selected (S21: YES), the icon setting unit 24 sets the selected flag as an icon F (S22). After step S22, the process proceeds to step S23.
於步驟S23中，文本設定部25將第1文本輸入畫面D15顯示於顯示器9。於第1文本輸入畫面D15中，若文本之輸入完成(S24：是)，則文本設定部25將所輸入之文本設定為第1文本T1(S25)。繼而，文本設定部25將第2文本輸入畫面D16顯示於顯示器9(S26)。於第2文本輸入畫面D16中，若文本之輸入完成(S27：是)，則文本設定部25將所輸入之文本設定為第2文本T2(S28)。 In step S23, the text setting unit 25 displays the first text input screen D15 on the display 9. On the first text input screen D15, if the input of the text is completed (S24: YES), the text setting unit 25 sets the input text as the first text T1 (S25). The text setting unit 25 then displays the second text input screen D16 on the display 9 (S26). On the second text input screen D16, if the input of the text is completed (S27: YES), the text setting unit 25 sets the input text as the second text T2 (S28).
繼而，若操作印刷鍵(S29：是)，則標籤長設定部23算出所記憶之格子長Ls、與於期間選擇畫面D11中所選擇之貼附對象期間P之積，且將算出之積設定為標籤長La(S30)。再者，於期間選擇畫面D11中選擇「未指定」之情形時，標籤長設定部23將標籤長La設定為與第1文本T1及第2文本T2之長度相配合。 When the print key is operated (S29: YES), the label length setting unit 23 calculates the product of the memorized grid length Ls and the application target period P selected in the period selection screen D11, and sets the calculated product. It is label length La (S30). When "unspecified" is selected in the period selection screen D11, the label length setting unit 23 sets the label length La to match the length of the first text T1 and the second text T2.
繼而，印刷資料產生部26執行下述印刷資料產生處理(S31)。帶印刷裝置1根據藉由印刷資料產生處理所產生之印刷資料而執行所設定之標籤長La之量之印刷(S32)。於印刷執行後，帶印刷裝置1結束標籤製作選單。 Then, the print data generation unit 26 executes the print data generation processing described below (S31). The tape printing device 1 executes printing of the set label length La based on the print data generated by the print data generation process (S32). After the printing is performed, the tape printing device 1 ends the label creation menu.
參照圖13，對印刷資料產生處理進行說明。若印刷資料產生處理開始，則印刷資料產生部26判斷所設定之圖符F是否為邊框圖像Fa(S41)。印刷資料產生部26於判斷所設定之圖符F並非邊框圖像Fa之情形時(S41：否(No))，前進至步驟S43。另一方面，印刷資料產生部26於判斷所設定之圖符F為邊框圖像Fa之情形時(S41：是)，根據所設定之標籤長La而設定邊框圖像Fa之第2圖標C2之數量(S42)，且前進至步驟S43。再者，印刷資料產生部26根據標籤長La而可設定第2圖標C2之長度，亦可設定第2圖標C2之數量及長度之兩者。 The print data generation processing will be described with reference to FIG. 13. When the print data generation process is started, the print data generation unit 26 determines whether the set icon F is a frame image Fa (S41). When the print data generating unit 26 determines that the set icon F is not the frame image Fa (S41: No), the process proceeds to step S43. On the other hand, when the print data generating unit 26 determines that the set icon F is the frame image Fa (S41: Yes), it sets the second icon C2 of the frame image Fa according to the set label length La. The number (S42), and the process proceeds to step S43. In addition, the print data generating unit 26 may set the length of the second icon C2 according to the label length La, or may set both the number and the length of the second icon C2.
於步驟S43中，印刷資料產生部26判斷所取得之貼附對象期間P是否為「1」。印刷資料產生部26於判斷所取得之貼附對象期間P為「1」之情形時(S43：是)，將第1文本T1及第2文本T2之分配設定為「靠中」(S44)，其後前進至步驟S46。印刷資料產生部26於判斷所取得之貼附對象期間P並非「1」之情形時(S43：否)，將第1文本T1及第2文本T2之分配設定為「靠前」(S45)，其後前進至步驟S46。於步驟S46中，根據該等之設定而產生印刷資料。 In step S43, the print data generating unit 26 determines whether the acquired target period P is "1". When the print data generating unit 26 judges that the acquired target period P is "1" (S43: Yes), the assignment of the first text T1 and the second text T2 is set to "center" (S44), Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S46. When the print data generating unit 26 judges that the acquired target period P is not "1" (S43: NO), it sets the assignment of the first text T1 and the second text T2 to "front" (S45), Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S46. In step S46, print data is generated according to these settings.
於印刷資料產生部26產生印刷資料之後，返回至標籤製作選單。 After the print data generation unit 26 generates the print data, the screen returns to the label creation menu.
圖14(a)表示於設定邊框圖像Fa作為圖符F、且貼附對象期間P為「1」之情形時所獲得之標籤A。圖14(b)表示於設定邊框圖像Fa作為圖符F、且貼附對象期間P為「2」以上之情形時所獲得之標籤A。如此，印刷頭5印刷第2圖標C2之數量根據標籤長La而不同之邊框圖像Fa。再者，圖14中，藉由矩形之二點鏈線而虛擬地表示點陣圖字型即第2圖標C2。 FIG. 14 (a) shows a label A obtained when the frame image Fa is set as the icon F and the attaching period P is “1”. FIG. 14 (b) shows a label A obtained when the frame image Fa is set as the icon F and the target period P is “2” or more. In this manner, the print head 5 prints the frame images Fa in which the number of the second icons C2 varies according to the label length La. In addition, in FIG. 14, the second icon C2, which is a bitmap font, is virtually represented by a rectangular two-dot chain line.
又，於貼附對象期間P為「1」之情形時，亦即，於貼附標籤A之格子S之數量為「1」之情形時，第1文本T1及第2文本T2之分配成為「靠中」。另一方面，於貼附對象期間P為「2」以上之情形時，亦即，於貼附標籤A之格子S之數量為「2」以上之情形時，第1文本T1及第2文本T2之分配成為「靠前」。因此，可根據貼附對象期間P而將第1文本T1及第2文本T2相對於方格式日曆Ca之格子S平衡良好地配置。即，於貼附標籤A之格子S之數量為「1」之情形時，可配置成使第1文本T1及第2文本T2位於該格子S之大致中央。又，於貼附標籤A之格子S之數量為「2」以上之情形時，可配置成使第1文本T1及第2文本T2位於第1天之格子S中。 In the case where the target period P is "1", that is, when the number of the grid S of the label A is "1", the assignment of the first text T1 and the second text T2 becomes "1". Center. " On the other hand, when the target period P is "2" or more, that is, when the number of the grid S of the label A is "2" or more, the first text T1 and the second text T2 The allocation becomes "forward". Therefore, the first text T1 and the second text T2 can be arranged in a well-balanced manner with respect to the grid S of the square format calendar Ca based on the period P to be attached. That is, when the number of the grids S to which the label A is attached is “1”, the first text T1 and the second text T2 may be arranged at approximately the center of the grid S. When the number of the grids S to which the label A is attached is “2” or more, the first text T1 and the second text T2 may be arranged in the grid S on the first day.
如以上般，本實施形態之帶印刷裝置1若取得作為基準單位之數量之貼附對象期間P，則可根據所取得之貼附對象期間P、及所記憶之基準單位之長度即格子長Ls而設定標籤長La。因此，即便使用者不輸入標籤長La，帶印刷裝置1亦可設定標籤長La。換言之，對使用者而言，一次測定所具有之記事本等之方格式日曆Ca之格子長Ls且記憶該格子長Ls即可。若如此，則於每次製作標籤A時，無需測定貼附標籤A之格子S之總長度，僅藉由輸入該格子S之數量(天數)便可獲得具有與貼附標籤A之格子S之數量對應之標籤長La的標籤A。 As described above, if the tape printing device 1 of this embodiment obtains the number of attachment target periods P as a reference unit, the length Ls can be obtained based on the obtained period of attachment target P and the length of the reference unit that is memorized. And set the label length La. Therefore, even if the user does not input the label length La, the tape printing device 1 can set the label length La. In other words, for the user, it is only necessary to measure the grid length Ls of the square-format calendar Ca such as a notepad and the like and memorize the grid length Ls. If so, it is not necessary to determine the total length of the grid S to which the tag A is attached each time the label A is produced, and only by entering the number (days) of the grid S to obtain the Number A corresponds to label A with label length La.
再者，使用者因更換記事本等而導致方格式日曆Ca之格子長Ls改變之情形時，於上述設定選單中變更格子長Ls即可。 In addition, when the user changes the grid length Ls of the square-format calendar Ca due to a change of a notepad or the like, it is sufficient to change the grid length Ls in the above setting menu.
(第2實施形態) (Second Embodiment)

一面參照圖19，一面使用圖18而對設定選單進行說明。如上所述，若調出設定選單，則帶印刷裝置1將設定畫面D1顯示於顯示器9(S1)。於設定畫面D1中若選擇「記事本種類」(S2：是，S3：記事本種類)，則帶印刷裝置1將記事本種類選擇畫面D3顯示於顯示器9(S51)。使用者自顯示於記事本種類選擇畫面D3之選項中選擇方格式日曆Ca之記事本種類(就圖15所示之例而言，以星期日為起始)。若選擇記事本種類(S52：是)，則日曆樣式記憶部31將所選擇之記事本種類作為日曆樣式而記憶(S53)。其後，帶印刷裝置1結束設定選單。 Referring to FIG. 19, the setting menu will be described using FIG. 18. As described above, when the setting menu is called up, the tape printing apparatus 1 displays the setting screen D1 on the display 9 (S1). If "notebook type" is selected in the setting screen D1 (S2: Yes, S3: Notepad type), the tape printing device 1 displays the notepad type selection screen D3 on the display 9 (S51). The user selects a notepad type of the square format calendar Ca from the options displayed on the notepad type selection screen D3 (for the example shown in FIG. 15, starting with Sunday). When the type of the notebook is selected (S52: YES), the calendar pattern storage unit 31 stores the selected type of the notebook as a calendar pattern (S53). Thereafter, the tape printing apparatus 1 ends the setting menu.
一面參照圖21，一面使用圖20對標籤製作選單進行說明。 Referring to FIG. 21, a label creation menu will be described using FIG. 20.
若藉由特定之鍵操作而開始標籤製作選單，則星期取得部32將星期選擇畫面D21顯示於顯示器9(S61)。於星期選擇畫面D21中若選擇星期(S62：是)，則星期取得部32取得所選擇之星期作為開始日Ea之星期(S63)。繼而，與第1實施形態同樣地，帶印刷裝置1執行上述步驟S11至步驟S31之處理。帶印刷裝置1執行下述印刷處理(S64)，其後結束標籤製作選單。再者，以下，將貼附對象期間P之值設為變數Y。 When the label creation menu is started by a specific key operation, the week acquisition unit 32 displays the day selection screen D21 on the display 9 (S61). When the day of the week is selected on the day selection screen D21 (S62: YES), the day of week acquisition unit 32 obtains the selected day as the day of the start date Ea (S63). Then, similarly to the first embodiment, the tape printing apparatus 1 executes the processes of steps S11 to S31 described above. The tape printing apparatus 1 executes the following printing processing (S64), and then ends the label creation menu. In the following, the value of the target period P is referred to as a variable Y.
參照圖22，對印刷處理進行說明。若印刷處理開始，則貼附對象期間判斷部34根據星期表格，將由記憶之日曆樣式與開始日Ea之星期所決定之值設定為變數X(S71)。繼而，貼附對象期間判斷部34判斷自變數Y減去變數X所得之差量即變數A是否為0以下(S72)。判斷變數A為0以下之情形(S72：是)係判斷貼附對象期間P未跨及複數個格子行SS之情形，帶印刷裝置1執行標籤長La之量之印刷(S84)，其後返回至 標籤製作選單。另一方面，判斷變數A並非0以下之情形(S72：否)係判斷貼附對象期間P跨及複數個格子行SS之情形，前進至步驟S73。 The printing process will be described with reference to FIG. 22. When the printing process is started, the pasting target period judgment unit 34 sets a value determined by the memorized calendar pattern and the week of the start date Ea as the variable X based on the week table (S71). Next, the attachment target period determination unit 34 determines whether the variable A, which is the difference between the variable Y and the variable X minus the variable X, is 0 or less (S72). The case where the judgment variable A is 0 or less (S72: Yes) is a case where it is judged that the target object period P has not straddled the plurality of grid lines SS, and the tape printing device 1 performs printing of the label length La (S84), and then returns to Label making menu. On the other hand, a case where it is determined that the variable A is not less than 0 (S72: NO) is a case where it is determined that the attachment target period P spans and a plurality of lattice rows SS, and the process proceeds to step S73.
於步驟S73中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35設定變數X作為部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp。繼而，標籤長設定部23算出格子長Ls與所設定之部分貼附對象期間Pp之積，且將所算出之積設定為部分標籤Ap之部分標籤長Lp(S74)。繼而，帶印刷裝置1執行部分標籤長Lp之量之印刷(S75)，其後暫時停止印刷(S76)。再者，於暫時停止印刷之後，較佳為帶印刷裝置1將促使使用者操作切割器按鈕7之意旨之訊息顯示於顯示器9。 In step S73, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 sets the variable X as the partial attachment target period Pp of the partial label Ap. Then, the label length setting unit 23 calculates the product of the lattice length Ls and the set partial attachment target period Pp, and sets the calculated product as the partial label length Lp of the partial label Ap (S74). Then, the tape printing apparatus 1 performs printing of part of the label length Lp (S75), and then temporarily stops printing (S76). Furthermore, after the printing is temporarily stopped, it is preferable that the tape printing device 1 displays on the display 9 a message indicating that the user is required to operate the cutter button 7.
於印刷暫時停止之狀態下，若操作切割器按鈕7，則可獲得部分標籤Ap。其後，若操作印刷鍵(S77：是)，則帶印刷裝置1使表示已執行切割次數之變數Z遞增(S78)。再者，帶印刷裝置1亦可代替印刷鍵之操作，以帶切割器6之切斷動作之檢測作為觸發，使已執行切割次數遞增。 When the cutter button 7 is operated while printing is temporarily stopped, a part of the label Ap can be obtained. Thereafter, if the print key is operated (S77: YES), the tape printing device 1 increments the variable Z indicating the number of times the cutting has been performed (S78). In addition, the tape printing device 1 can also replace the operation of the printing key, and the detection of the cutting action of the tape cutter 6 is used as a trigger to increase the number of times the cutting has been performed.
繼而，部分貼附對象期間設定部35判斷變數Z是否等於變數B與1之和(S79)。再者，變數B係將變數A除以1週之天數、即7時之商。部分貼附對象期間設定部35於判斷變數Z不等於變數B與1之和之情形時(S79：否)，將「7」設定為部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp(S80)，其後返回至步驟S74。 Then, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 determines whether the variable Z is equal to the sum of the variables B and 1 (S79). Furthermore, the variable B is a quotient of the variable A divided by the number of days in a week, that is, 7 o'clock. When the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 determines that the variable Z is not equal to the sum of the variables B and 1 (S79: NO), "7" is set as the partial attachment target period Pp of the partial label Ap (S80). Then it returns to step S74.
另一方面，部分貼附對象期間設定部35於判斷變數Z等於變數B與1之和之情形時(S79：是)，將由變數A除以7時之餘數即變數C設定為部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp(S81)。繼而，標籤長設定部23算出格子長Ls、與所設定之部分貼附對象期間Pp即變數C之積，且將所算出之積設定為部分標籤Ap之部分標籤長Lp(S82)。繼而，帶印刷裝置1執行部分標籤長Lp之量之印刷(S83)，其後返回至標籤製作選單。 On the other hand, when the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 determines that the variable Z is equal to the sum of the variables B and 1 (S79: YES), the variable C is set as the partial label Ap when the remainder when the variable A is divided by 7 is set. Partially attach the target period Pp (S81). Next, the label length setting unit 23 calculates the product of the lattice length Ls and the set partial attachment target period Pp, that is, the variable C, and sets the calculated product as the partial label length Lp of the partial label Ap (S82). Then, the tape printing device 1 performs printing of a part of the label length Lp (S83), and thereafter returns to the label creation menu.
部分貼附對象期間設定部35藉由執行上述處理，將變數X(X天)設定為第1張部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp，將變數C(C天)設定為最後一張部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp，且將「7」(7天)設定為其他部分標籤Ap之部分標籤長Lp。 The partial attachment target period setting unit 35 executes the above-mentioned processing, and sets the variable X (X days) as the partial attachment target period Pp of the first partial label Ap, and sets the variable C (day C) as the last section. Part of the label Ap is attached to the target period Pp, and "7" (7 days) is set as the partial label length Lp of the other partial labels Ap.
此處，更具體而言，以如下情形舉例進行說明：於步驟S53中，記憶「星期日起始」作為日曆樣式，於步驟S63中，取得「星期五」作為開始日Ea之星期，於步驟S13中，取得「14天」作為貼附對象期間P。該情形時，於步驟S71中，貼附對象期間判斷部34設定「2」作為變數X(參照圖17)。於步驟S72中，貼附對象期間判斷部34判斷變數A(=Y-X=14-2=12)並非0以下，前進至步驟S73。於步驟S73中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35設定變數X之值即「2」作為第1張部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp。 Here, more specifically, the following example is used for illustration: In step S53, "starting Sunday" is memorized as a calendar pattern, and in step S63, "Friday" is obtained as the week of the starting day Ea, and in step S13 , "14 days" is obtained as the target period P. In this case, in step S71, the attachment target period determination unit 34 sets "2" as the variable X (see FIG. 17). In step S72, the attachment target period determination unit 34 determines that the variable A (= Y-X = 14-2 = 12) is not 0 or less, and proceeds to step S73. In step S73, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 sets the value of the variable X, that is, "2" as the partial attachment target period Pp of the first partial label Ap.
於第1次步驟S79中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35判斷變數Z(=1)不等於變數B(=1)與1之和(=2)，前進至步驟S80。於步驟S80中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35設定「7」作為第2張部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp，返回至步驟S74。於第2次步驟S79中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35判斷變數Z(=2)等於變數B(=1)與1之和(=2)，前進至步驟S81。於步驟S81中，部分貼附對象期間設定部35設定變數C之值即「5」作為第3張部分標籤Ap之部分貼附對象期間Pp。以此方式，如圖15所示，帶印刷裝置1可製作部分貼附對象期間Pp為2天量之第1張部分標籤Ap、部分貼附對象期間Pp為7天量之第2張部分標籤Ap、及部分貼附對象期間Pp為5天量之第3張部分標籤Ap。 In the first step S79, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 determines that the variable Z (= 1) is not equal to the sum of the variable B (= 1) and 1 (= 2), and proceeds to step S80. In step S80, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 sets "7" as the partial attachment target period Pp of the second partial label Ap, and returns to step S74. In the second step S79, the partial attachment target period setting unit 35 determines that the variable Z (= 2) is equal to the sum of the variables B (= 1) and 1 (= 2), and proceeds to step S81. In step S81, the partial attaching target period setting unit 35 sets the value of the variable C, that is, "5" as the partial attaching target period Pp of the third partial label Ap. In this way, as shown in FIG. 15, the tape printing device 1 can produce a first partial label Ap with a period of 2 days for the partial attachment target period and a second partial label Ap with a period of 7 days for the partial attachment target period Pp. Ap, and the third partial label Ap in a period of 5 days in which the target object is Pp.
再者，本發明並不限定於上述實施形態，當然可於不脫離其主旨之範圍內採用各種構成。例如，第1實施形態或第2實施形態可變更為如下之形態。 In addition, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and it goes without saying that various configurations can be adopted without departing from the gist thereof. For example, the first embodiment or the second embodiment may be changed to the following embodiment.
帶印刷裝置1例如亦可不依賴於自鍵盤8之輸入操作，而是自外 部機器接收貼附對象期間P、圖符F、第1文本T1及第2文本T2等各種資訊。 The tape printing device 1 may not depend on the input operation from the keyboard 8 Each device receives various information such as the target period P, the icon F, the first text T1, and the second text T2.
單位數取得部22亦可根據開始日Ea及結束日Eb之輸入操作而取得貼附對象期間P。例如，單位數取得部22於將1月15日作為開始日Ea，且將1月17日作為結束日Eb而輸入之情形時，可算出貼附對象期間P為3天。 The unit number acquisition unit 22 may also acquire the target period P based on the input operation of the start date Ea and the end date Eb. For example, when the unit number acquisition unit 22 inputs January 15 as the start date Ea and January 17 as the end date Eb, it can calculate the attachment target period P to be 3 days.
星期取得部32亦可根據所取得之開始日Ea之年月日、與將年月日及星期建立對應之表格而取得開始日Ea之年月日。 The day-of-week acquisition unit 32 may also obtain the year, month, and day of the start date Ea based on the year, month, and day of the obtained start date Ea, and a table corresponding to the year, month, and day.
帶印刷裝置1亦可具備使帶切割器6進行切斷動作之馬達等驅動源，於印刷處理結束之情形時、或印刷處理暫時停止之情形時，自動地切斷帶Tp。 The tape printing apparatus 1 may be provided with a drive source such as a motor that causes the tape cutter 6 to perform a cutting operation, and automatically cuts the tape Tp when the printing process is completed or when the printing process is temporarily stopped.
帶印刷裝置1亦可為安裝帶匣者。又，帶印刷裝置1之饋送部亦可為使收容於帶匣中之壓紙滾筒旋轉者。 The tape printing device 1 may be a person who installs a tape cassette. In addition, the feeding unit of the tape printing device 1 may be a person who rotates the platen roller accommodated in the tape cassette.
如圖23所示，帶印刷裝置1亦可製作將第1文本T1或第2文本T2豎寫而印刷之標籤A。在將標籤A貼附於立式日曆Cb之情形時，若可進行此種豎寫，則較為便利。該情形時，帶印刷裝置1例如取得開始日Ea及結束日Eb之月日，且設定每月之部分貼附對象期間Pp，藉此可製作按月之部分標籤Ap。 As shown in FIG. 23, the tape printing device 1 may also produce a label A in which the first text T1 or the second text T2 is vertically written and printed. When the label A is attached to the vertical calendar Cb, it is more convenient if such vertical writing is possible. In this case, for example, the tape printing device 1 can obtain the month and day of the start date Ea and the end date Eb, and set a part of the monthly application target period Pp, thereby making a part of the monthly label Ap.
本發明中之「第1時間單位」並不限於天，其係例如包含年、月、週、小時、分、秒等之概念。例如圖24所示，亦可將於複數個格子S中標註有以「小時」為單位而連續之時刻G之時間排程表Cc作為貼附對象物。該情形時，單位數取得部22亦可根據小時數之輸入操作而取得貼附對象期間P。又，帶印刷裝置1例如記憶時間排程表Cc之樣式(自幾點至幾點)，並且取得開始時間及結束時間之日期與時間，設定每天之部分貼附對象期間Pp，藉此可製作按天之部分標籤Ap。 The "first time unit" in the present invention is not limited to days, and it includes concepts such as year, month, week, hour, minute, and second. For example, as shown in FIG. 24, a plurality of cells S may be marked with a time schedule Cc of consecutive hours G in units of "hours" as the object of attachment. In this case, the unit number acquisition unit 22 may acquire the attaching target period P based on the input operation of the hours. In addition, the tape printing device 1 can create, for example, a time schedule table Cc (from several times to several times), obtain the date and time of the start time and end time, and set a part of the target object period Pp for each day. Label Ap by part of the day.
本發明中之區塊並不限於標註有日期E等標註時間者，如圖25所 示，其係例如包含縱橫並排設置於瓷磚壁W上之瓷磚T之概念。該情形時，帶印刷裝置1只要記憶瓷磚T之長度(嚴密而言為瓷磚T之配置間距)即瓷磚長Lt作為基準單位之長度，則僅藉由取得作為基準單位之數量之瓷磚T之個數，便可設定與貼附標籤A之瓷磚T之數量對應之標籤長La。 The blocks in the present invention are not limited to those marked with the date E and other times, as shown in FIG. 25 It is a concept including, for example, a tile T arranged on the tile wall W in a vertical and horizontal manner. In this case, as long as the tape printing device 1 memorizes the length of the tile T (strictly, the arrangement distance of the tile T), that is, the length of the tile Lt as the length of the reference unit, only by obtaining the number of tiles T as the reference unit The label length La corresponding to the number of the tiles T to which the label A is attached can be set.
本發明中之基準單位並不限定於區塊，其係例如包含1英吋或1英尺之概念。例如，使用者於欲獲得3英吋之標籤長La之標籤A之情形時，亦可利用公知之定長印刷功能而輸入25.4×3≒76mm作為標籤長La，於每次製作英吋單位之長度之標籤A時，必須將由英吋換算為毫米所得之數值作為標籤長La而輸入，故較為麻煩。相對於此，本構成之帶印刷裝置1只要記憶作為基準單位之長度之25.4mm，則僅藉由取得作為基準單位之數量之英吋數，便可設定將所取得之英吋數換算為毫米後之標籤長La。 The reference unit in the present invention is not limited to blocks, and it includes, for example, the concept of 1 inch or 1 foot. For example, when a user wants to obtain a label A with a label length La of 3 inches, he can also use the known fixed-length printing function to input 25.4 × 3 ≒ 76mm as the label length La. In the case of a label A having a length, a value obtained by converting inches to millimeters must be input as a label length La, which is troublesome. In contrast, as long as the tape printing device 1 of this constitution memorizes 25.4 mm of the length as the reference unit, it can be set to convert the obtained number of inches to millimeters only by obtaining the number of inches as the reference unit. The next label is La.
