16. A media processing device comprising:
-
a data read/write unit configured to read information stored in an IC tag and to write information to the IC tag, the IC tag being disposed on a media; and a controller configured to control the data read/write unit to detects the IC tag that can communicate; wherein, when the controller determines that plural IC tags are detected, the controller prevents the data read/write unit from writing information to the plural IC tags. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A printer comprising:
-
a data read/write unit configured to read information stored in an IC tag and to write information to the IC tag, the IC tag being disposed on a media; a controller configured to controls the data read/write unit to detects the IC tag that can communicate; and a print head configured to print the media, the media including the IC tag to which information has been written, wherein, when the controller determines that plural IC tags are detected, the controller prevents the data read/write unit from writing information to the plural IC tags. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24)
