A tape cartridge to be loaded in an unloadable manner in a tape printing device having an open/close cover to open/close a cartridge loading section where the tape cartridge is loaded. The tape cartridge includes: a tab portion which is provided on a surface of the tape cartridge that faces the open/close cover when loaded in the cartridge loading section, and which is configured to move between a gripping position and a non-gripping position in relation to the surface; and an energizing portion which energizes the tab portion toward the gripping position. The tab portion is pressed by a pressing portion provided on the open/close cover, in a closed state of the open/close cover. The energizing portion is displaced to resist the pressing force of the pressing portion via the tab portion.

A printing system comprises a transport apparatus adapted to transport a flexible web (24) along a process direction and first and second individually controllable inkjet imager units (44, 60, 70, 82) offset from one another along the process direction. Each of the first imager unit and the second imager unit includes a first portion (226) operable to print on a first portion of the web and a second portion (228) operable to print on the second portion of the web wherein each of the first portion and second portion of the first and second imager units is stationary along the process direction and the lateral direction.

A cassette includes a printing tape roll being rotatable and into which a printing tape as a medium to be printed is wound, and an outer peripheral wall disposed on one side in a first direction relative to the printing tape roll. The first direction is a width direction of the printing tape. The outer peripheral wall includes a first side wall extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, a second side wall extending in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and intersecting with the second direction, and a recess wall defining a recess extending from the second side wall toward one side in the second direction. The recess extends in the third direction on one side in the second direction further than the second side wall. At least a portion of the recess overlaps the printing tape roll in the first direction.
