AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing printing devices struggle to accommodate atypical labels without a backing, as they often adhere to the device's surfaces due to their adhesive nature.
Method used
The printing device incorporates a non-adhesive member, such as a silicone material or a non-adhesive sheet/coating, mounted on the case's surface to prevent the labels from adhering. This includes using elastomer molded silicone for covers and applying silicone or fluororesin coatings on surfaces.
Benefits of technology
This solution effectively prevents atypical labels from adhering to the printing device's surfaces, ensuring smooth operation in both vertical and horizontal positions, and accommodating various label types, including linerless labels.

Abstract
To solve the problem that it is difficult to handle an irregularly-shaped label without a mount.SOLUTION: A printing apparatus comprises: a printing unit capable of printing on recording paper having a recording surface, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive surface provided on an opposite side of the recording surface; a case in which an ejection port for ejecting recording paper which has been printed on by the printing apparatus, is formed on a first surface; and a non-pressure-sensitive adhesive member mounted while covering at least a part of the first surface of the case.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
