Abstract
The tag-label producing device includes a print head for performing printing with respect to a print area of a cover film, a loop antenna for performing transmission/reception of information to/from an RFID circuit element, and a tape feed roller for imparting relative movement between the print head or loop antenna and a tag label tape with print. At this time, a control circuit determines the chronological sequence relation between the arrival of the RFID circuit element at a communication position where transmission/reception of information is performed with respect to the loop antenna, and the completion of the printing by the print head with respect to the print area. In accordance with the result of this determination, the operation modes of the tape feed roller, loop antenna, and print head are switch-controlled in a coordinated fashion.
