[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the conventional holder can be applied only to the sticker label, but cannot be used for cards such as business cards and book cards that do not require adhesion. For this reason, it is common for small cards to be filled in by hand. In addition, since the purpose of use of the sticker label is almost fixed, the shape, size, and type are also fixed, but there are many types of the above cards, and it is not practical to be restricted by paper quality and size. is not.

Further, a method of fixing and printing the above cards on a mount (holder) having notches at four corners through the notches can be considered. However, in the case of fixing the cards to the holder with notches at the four corners, the cards are fixed only at the four corners and in a state of floating from the holder. However, there was a problem that the resolution went down and the resolution fell.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a card-printing holder that can easily print on a wide variety of cards at a predetermined position using a serial printer.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is to form a cardboard to be supplied to a printer together with cards to be printed, and to a printing position defined by printing software, which is a fixed position of the card on the cardboard surface, And a removable adhesive layer that can be removably attached to the removable adhesive layer, and the removable adhesive layer is provided within a range that does not exceed the shape and size of the cards described above. The above-mentioned object is achieved by providing a holder for use. The releasable adhesive referred to here is one that is removably adhered, and means that a wide range of adhesives, pressure-sensitive adhesives and the like are included.

[0008]

[Action]

 According to the card printing holder of the present invention, the text content to be printed on the card is input to the word processor, and the cards are temporarily bonded to the position of the removable adhesive layer of the holder. In this case, since the releasable adhesive layer is provided in a range that does not exceed the shape and size of the cards, it is easy to temporarily adhere the cards to the releasable adhesive layer. Further, when it is mounted on the serial printer, there is no risk that the feed roller surface of the printer and the adhesive layer on the mount will stick to each other, and the mount can be smoothly transported by the printer.

When printing is started after the holder is aligned with the reference position of the printer and the holder is installed in the correct position of the printer, printing is controlled by the printing software on the serial printer side, and printing is performed at the predetermined position of the cards. It After printing, printed cards can be easily removed from the holder. In this case, it can be used for cards such as business cards and book cards that do not require adhesion, and printing on the back surface is also possible. Further, it is possible to print on a wide variety of the above cards, without being restricted by the paper quality and size of the above cards.
