The cassette includes a printing tape, a casing accommodating the printing tape, and a pressure portion. Upon attachment of the cassette to a cassette receiving portion of the printing device, the pressure portion is configured to move a specific gear of the power transmission portion in the first direction to allow the power transmission portion to mechanically switch a ratio of a rotation number of the platen roller to a rotation number of the motor in accordance with a position of the specific gear in the first direction.
