Abstract
A printing deviceincludes a platen rollerwhich feeds a thermal tape, a thermal headwhich performs printing on the thermal tape, and a control circuit. The control circuitrotates the platen rollerbackward to feed the thermal tapebackward in order to make a printing start area PT of the thermal tapereach a backward feed position more away from an outletthan a normal position NP of the thermal head. After that, the control circuitrotates the platen rollerforward to perform printing using the thermal head
