An editing device is configured to edit print data including first print data and second print data via a display device for creating a composite label with a printing device. The composite label includes a first label and a second label and is created by superposing the second label over the first label. A set of program instructions, when executed by a controller of the editing device, causes the editing device to perform displaying an editing screen on the display device. The editing screen has a first region, a second region, and a composite region. The displaying displays a first label image based on the first print data in the first region, a second label image based on the second print data in the second region, and a composite label image formed by superposing the second label image over the first label image in the composite region.

A printing device includes: a platen roller, a pair of bearings, and a holder. The platen roller has a rotational shaft extending in a first direction. The bearings rotatably support respective end portions of the rotational shaft. Each of the bearings includes an abutment portion. The holder includes a pair of fitting portions into which the bearings is respectively fitted. Each of the fitting portions includes: a receiving portion, an opening portion, and an engagement portion extending from the receiving portion. The receiving portion has an inner space configured to receive the corresponding bearing. The abutment portion is configured to abut against the engagement portion. In a case where an external force in a direction toward the opening portion is applied to the bearing, the engagement portion is configured to be deformed so as to reduce an area of the opening portion, thereby immovably engaging the bearing.

Printing device having engagement portion for suppressing disengagement of bearing from holder

A printing device includes: a platen roller having a rotational shaft, a pair of bearings, and a holder. The bearings rotatably support end portions of the rotational shaft. Each of the bearings includes: a support portion, and an engaging portion. The support portion has an outer circumferential surface. The engaging portion is provided at the outer circumferential surface of the support portion. The holder includes a pair of fitting portions. The bearings are fitted into the fitting portions, respectively. Each of the fitting portions includes: a receiving portion configured to receive the support portion, an opening portion, and an engagement portion. The engaging portion is engaged with the engagement portion, whereby an expanding deformation of the opening portion can be restrained in a case where an external force directed in a direction toward the opening portion in the first direction is applied to the bearings.

Printing device having structure capable of suppressing disengagement of bearing from holder despite application of external force to bearing

A printer includes two supporters disposed at a storage section, an adjuster movably supporting at least a specific supporter of the two supporters, a protrusion protruding upward from a second section, the second section being an upper portion of the specific supporter, a locking section locking a first section in a position to which the first section is moved via the adjuster, the first section being a lower portion of the specific supporter, and an engagement section having elastically-deformable engagement pieces arranged at intervals in a particular direction intersecting a vertical direction, the protrusion being configured to, when the cover is closed, engage with at least a specific engagement piece from beneath, the specific engagement piece being maintained elastically deformed upward.

An information input device has a determination portion, a detection portion, and a switching portion. The detection portion includes two areas that plural coils are arranged along a plane. The two areas switch between a folded state facing the areas each other and a two-page spread state not facing the areas each other. When an induced current is not detected in the coils of the two areas in the continuous reception state in which the induced current of the coils can be detected, the determination portion determines that the detection portion is in the two-page spread state. When the induced current is detected in the coils of the two areas in the continuous reception state, the determination portion determines that the detection portion is in the folded state, and the switching portion switches the state of the detection portion from a normal state to a power saving state.

Information input device

A print device includes a first print portion, a first discharge portion, a second print portion, a second discharge portion, and a user interface portion. The first discharge portion is configured to discharge a first medium printed by the first print portion. The second discharge portion is configured to discharge a second medium printed by the second print portion. The user interface portion is disposed on a front side portion of the print device. A main scanning direction of the first print portion and a main scanning direction of the second print portion are substantially parallel to an up-down direction. A length in the up-down direction of the second print portion is shorter than a length in the up-down direction of the first print portion. The second print portion is disposed to the front of the first print portion.

The disclosure discloses a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a print processing program for executing an increment mode acceptance step, a condition acceptance step, a determination step, and a data output step on a computing device. In the increment mode acceptance step, a setting operation of an increment mode of at least one print number is accepted. In the condition acceptance step, a setting of a specific numerical condition of the print number to be emphasized is accepted. In the determination step, it is determined whether or not the print number included in a corresponding a print object satisfies the numerical condition. In the data output step, in the case that it is determined that the print number satisfies the numerical condition, the print data is generated to apply a predetermined emphasis process to the print number.

Recording medium and printed matter producing apparatus

A print device includes a tape mounting portion, a tape print portion, a tape discharge portion, a tube mounting portion, a ribbon mounting portion, a tube print portion, and a tube discharge portion. The tape mounting portion is configured such that a tape is detachably mounted in the tape mounting portion. The tube mounting portion is configured such that a tube is detachably mounted in the tube mounting portion along a predetermined direction. The ribbon mounting portion is configured such that an ink ribbon is detachably mounted in the ribbon mounting portion. The tape mounting portion and the ribbon mounting portion are disposed on a same side with respect to the tube mounting portion, and are disposed side by side along the predetermined direction.

An image processing device includes a touch panel, a screen group storage portion, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the image processing device to perform operations. The operations include determining that it is a switching timing when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and switching a currently displayed screen to a next screen and displaying the next screen on the touch panel, based on screen group information stored in the screen group storage portion, in response to determining that it is the switching timing.
