ABSTRACT:
An extension passage for extending a label tape is horizontally provided, and a recessed label tape storage which is open at its upper side is provided for storing a roll of label tape at one end of this extension passage, a platen roller which is driven and rotated by an electric circuit is provided at the other end of the extension passage and a detector for detecting a position of a label on the label tape is provided at a middle position of the extension passage. The platen roller described above is provided to be opposed to a thermal printing head so that the thermal printing head approaches and moves away from the platen roller and this printing head is supported by a head holder which has a pivotal point at the side of the extension passage, which is entirely exposed when the head holder is vertically raised up. An openable cover for covering the head holder and the extension passage is provided above the head holder and pivoted at the side of the extension passage so that it is turned around in the same direction as the head holder.
