Abstract

When a print tape (8) to be used as the label (25α) of a first sheet desired by one user is printed with no cut and then predetermined conditions, e.g. “time out elapse”, are satisfied, the label (25α) is outputted from a printer (6) in a cut state. When the other user instructs the printer (6) to make another label by auto-cut, the other label is cut and outputted. Even if the one user instructs the printer (6) subsequently to make the label of a second sheet by auto-cut to make a label (25) where the label (25α) of the first sheet is connected with the label of the second sheet intentionally, the label of the second sheet is cut and outputted.
