Abstract
A tape-cartridge case comprises a lower plate, an upper plate and side walls projecting from the respective lower and upper plates, and when a tape cartridge is accommodated in the case, side surfaces of the tape cartridge are surrounded by the two side walls. However, only one of the two side walls opposes to a bar code that is provided on the side surface of the tape cartridge, so that the bar code can quickly and accurately be read by a bar-code reader through the single side wall.
