Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the titled printer extremely simple in construction, by a method wherein a spiral cam disk provided at an end part of a drum and a rack formed on a frame are engaged with each other to move the drum by a predetermined amount in the axial direction of the drum. CONSTITUTION:When the drum 2 is rotated by one revolution in the direction of an arrow C, and when a spiral part D of the spiral cam disk 3 provided integrally with the drum 2 and the rack 4 provided on the frame 6 are engaged with each other, the drum 2 is moved by a predetermined amount (h) in the direction of an arrow B. By repeating this operation, the drum 2 can be repeatedly moved by the amount (h) at a time. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to provide any complicated expensive mechanism for moving a transfer ribbon winder 9 and a thermal head 8.
