    (54) Passbook printing apparatus and page turning method


    (57) A passbook printing apparatus according to the pre­sent invention has the function of printing transaction data, etc. on a passbook (4). At the time of printing of such transaction data, etc., a page of the passbook (4) is turned automatically as necessary. This page turning ope­ration is performed irrespective of the type of passbook, that is, irrespective of whether the passbook inserted into the apparatus is a front-ro-rear opening type or a side-to-side opening type, by means of a page turning roller (10) disposed in an obliquely intersecting rela­tion to a passbook transfer direction and a paper guide (5, 6, 7) disposed substantially perpendicularly to a ro­tating direction of the page turning roller (10).
