Zusammenfassung:	(With reference to figure 3) A re-inking device (100) and a method of re-inking a tape (14), at least a part of the tape (14) being wound onto each of a first spool (10) and second spool (12) and the tape (14) extending between the first spool (10) and the second spool (12) along a tape path, the first and second spools (10, 12) being mounted to a cassette (4) of a thermal printing apparatus, the method using a re-inking device (100) including an application mechanism (102), which includes an application portion (104) and a supply of ink configured to supply ink to the application portion (104), the method including the steps of: mounting the cassette (4) on the re-inking device (100), initialising the re-inking device (100) by moving at least one of the tape (14) and the application portion (104) relative to the other to bring the tape (14) into an ink-application position, and coating at least a portion of the tape (14) with ink by supplying ink to the application portion (104) and rotating at least one of the first and second spools (10, 12) to move the tape (14) relative to the application portion (104), so that ink coats at least a portion of the tape (14).
