Abstract
The disclosure discloses a printer including a controller to control a feeder and a printing head. A regular print mode includes a first cut-feeding process. In the first cut-feeding process, a print-receiving tape is further fed such that the print-receiving tape is positioned by stopping a feeding when a boundary position faces a cutter. A continuous print mode includes a continuous print feeding process. In the continuous print feeding process, the print-receiving tape is further fed such that the print-receiving tape is stopped with the boundary position facing the printing head. The controller is configured to execute a determination process and a second cut-feeding process. In the determination process, it is determined whether a predetermined environmental change condition is satisfied. In the second cut-feeding process, the print-receiving tape stopped is resumed such that the print-receiving tape is positioned by stopping when the boundary position faces the cutter.
