Electric signal processing 1t! The device@4g converts the barcode information stored in the storage circuit 3e into a predetermined character code or symbol code, and sends a signal to the print circuit ra4C of the label printer 4. The signal sent to the print circuit rs4C is converted into a print pulse and applied to the print head 4a. On the other hand, the label tape 62 is fed by the label tape transporting device 5 composed of the drive circuit 5a and the feed mechanism 5b, and the label moves accordingly, and the label under the print head 4a is moved as desired characters, Symbols etc. are printed.

Label position detection holes 64 are punched at regular intervals in the label tape, and when the holes 64 come to the position of the position detector 5d, a signal is sent to the control circuit 6 by the label position detection circuit 5C to detect the printed label. It is stopped at a predetermined affixing position and at the same time as the next label is stopped at a printing start position. Next, if the original barcode cannot be read by the barcode reader 3 due to damage or stains, read the slip number from the original slip visually and manually input the number of the digital 0-tally switch 4e of the main unit. By matching the numbers, information is transmitted to the switch reading circuit 4r, and when the starting switch is turned to the second position, the operation is performed in the same manner as in the above-mentioned printing 111ft sequence.
