Abstract
A label issuing apparatus which feeds labels adhered in a line on a base carrier paper, is arranged to stop the feed of the labels at a first printing position and to print thereat on each label, and then to feed the labels so that printed labels issue from a label issuing outlet. The label issuing apparatus is comprised of a keyboard including a RAM having first and second memory areas, a set key, an execution key and ten numerical entry keys. The keyboard stores first and second feed distance data into the first and second memory areas when the keys are operated, and a feed control unit feeds the label carrier paper through a distance corresponding to the first feed distance data when a leading edge of a printed label is detected. The feed control unit sets and prints the label at the first printing position, and then feeds the carrier paper through a distance corresponding to the second distance data to define a second printing position.
