Abstract (en)
A rotary printing apparatus includes a thermal head 11 for thermally printing in a main scanning direction along a radial direction of a disk print medium M having a heat-sensitive coloring layer, a spring 11a for pressing the thermal head 11 against the disk print medium M, a turn table 19 for supporting the disk print medium M rotatably in a sub-scanning direction along a circumferential direction of the disk print medium M, and a pinch roller 31 for rotation-driving the disk print medium M by contacting an outer circumferential portion thereof. With this construction, high quality image printing can be achieved by driving the disk print medium to rotate stably during printing operations. <IMAGE>
