Abstract
In a label affixing device, a printer performs printing on a tape. The tape includes: a base material; and a release material. The base material has an adhesive surface and a printing surface. The release material covers the adhesive surface. A cutter is disposed downstream relative to the printer in a conveying direction of the tape, and cuts a prescribed portion of the tape while leaving the release material intact to produce a label having the printing surface on which printing has been performed by the printer. A peeling part is disposed downstream relative to the cutter in the conveying direction of the tape, and peels the label off the release material. An affixing part is disposed downstream relative to the peeling part in a conveying direction of the label, and affixes the label peeled off the release material by the peeling part to an adherend.
