Abstract

A label peeling method for label sheet includes: conveying a label sheet including a base sheet and a label affixed to the base sheet along a conveying path that is bent at a bent portion; and performing a printing operation on the label from a beginning portion of printing while conveying the label sheet, wherein the conveying of the label sheet and the printing operation are stopped once in a state where the label sheet is conveyed until a conveying-direction leading end portion of the label reaches a downstream side of the bent portion of the conveying path, after a stopping state is held for a predetermined time, the conveying of the label sheet and the printing operation are resumed so that the label is peeled from the base sheet at the bent portion of the conveying path.

1. A label peeling method for label sheet comprising:

conveying a label sheet including a base sheet and a label affixed to the base sheet along a conveying path that is bent at a bent portion; and

performing a printing operation on the label from a beginning portion of printing while conveying the label sheet, wherein

the conveying of the label sheet and the printing operation on the label are stopped once a conveying-direction leading end portion of the label, on which the printing is performed, reaches a downstream side of the bent portion of the conveying path and, after a stopping state is held for a predetermined time, the conveying of the label sheet and the printing operation on the label which was stopped, are resumed so that the label, on which the printing is performed by the printing operation, is peeled from the base sheet at the bent portion of the conveying path.

2. A label peeling method for label sheet comprising:

conveying a label sheet including a base sheet and a label affixed to the base sheet along a conveying path that is bent at a bent portion; and

performing a printing operation on the label while conveying the label sheet,

wherein the label sheet is conveyed until a conveying-direction leading end portion of a next label, on which the printing is performed after the printing on the label is finished, reaches a downstream side of the bent portion of the conveying path, and the label sheet is stopped and stands by until receiving a next printing command, an operation to reversely convey the label sheet to a beginning portion of printing at an upstream side in a conveying path is performed at least once when the next printing command is received, and thereafter, the printing operation on the reversely conveyed label is performed while the label sheet is conveyed so that the label is peeled from the base sheet while conveying the label sheet.
