no. 1 Embodiment approach >

[0016] Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0017] figure 1 It is a schematic configuration diagram of the printer 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0018] The printer 100 is a printer that prints on an RFID medium (hereinafter, simply referred to as “media”) M incorporating an RFID insert (hereinafter, simply referred to as “insert”) N having an IC chip C and an antenna A. In the printer 100, it is also possible to print on a printing medium that does not have the insert N.

[0019] The printer 100 prints variable information such as prices, barcodes, other product information, and management information related to goods or services on the medium M based on the print distribution instruction of the medium M, and reads and writes information on the insert N. enter.

[0020] In addition, "reading the information of the interposer N" refers to reading the information writte...

[0064] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0065] Figure 4 It is a schematic configuration diagram of the printer 200 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The printer 200 differs from the printer 100 in that it includes an upstream conveyance unit 80 and a continuum detection sensor 90. The upstream conveyance unit 80 is provided on the upstream side of the printing unit 15 to convey the continuum ML and the continuum detection sensor 90. 90 is provided on the downstream side of the printing unit 15, and detects the continuum ML. Hereinafter, differences from the printer 100 will be mainly described, and the same components as those of the printer 100 will be denoted by the same reference numerals and descriptions will be omitted.

[0066] The upstream conveyance unit 80 includes a driving roller 81 and a driven roller 82 . The upstream transport unit 80 sandwiches the continuum ML s...

Abstract

In the present invention, a controller: executes, one time, a first processing of back-feeding a continuous body and writing information on an RFID inlet, and then forward-feeding the continuous body until an RFID medium is at a printing start position; and then executes a second processing by which, when the RFID inlet of an RFID medium following the RFID medium being printed is at a position allowing communication with an antenna, printing on the RFID medium undergoing printing is paused, information is written to the RFID inlet, and then printing is resumed and completed on the RFID medium for which printing was paused.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a printer, a printer control method and a program. Background technique [0002] Japanese JP2006-272844A discloses a printer for printing a label incorporating an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) insert having an IC chip and an antenna. [0003] In the printer described above, the antenna for reading and writing information on the RFID insert is arranged upstream of the printing unit. Therefore, depending on the label used, when the label continuous body is set in the printer and the label to be printed is in the printing position, the RFID insert of the label may be located between the antenna and the printing unit. [0004] In the case of using such a label, the above-mentioned printer repeats the operation of feeding the continuous label in the reverse direction to write information to the RFID insert of the label to be printed, and the process of writing information to the RFID insert that is included in the l...
