- the storage location of the written media 11B to be written is confirmed based on the attribute information, and the written media is checked by the media transport mechanism 15.
- the written medium 11 B to be written is taken out from the storage unit 19 (step ST21), set in the media drive 13, and the additional data is written (step ST22).
- the media drive 13 performs finalization processing so that data cannot be added to the already written media 11B (step ST23).
- the additional data name and the like are stored in the storage unit 17 in the storage location related to the written medium 11B (step ST24).
- the written media 11B for which additional writing has been completed is taken out from the media drive 13, set in the label printer 14, and written in the media stored and held in the storage unit 17.
- the name is printed on the label side 1 la in batch (step ST25).
- the written media 11B after the label is printed in a batch is returned to the original storage location in the written media storage unit 19 (step ST26).
- step ST 31 when a data reference command or a data output command is received (step ST 31), the storage location of the written medium 11 B in which the target data is recorded is stored in the storage unit 17. Then, the medium transport mechanism 15 takes out the target written medium 11B from the written medium storage unit 19, sets it in the media drive 13 (step ST32), and reads the target data (step ST33). After the output of the data reference is completed, the reference is stored or the output history is stored in the storage unit 17 (step ST34), and then the written medium 11B is returned to the original storage location (step ST35).
- step ST41 if a media ejection command has been issued (step ST41), The storage location of the written media 11B is specified based on the information stored in the storage unit 17, and the written media 11B is the written media 11B for which the final data addition has been completed. Determine if it is 11B. In other words, it is determined whether or not the label printing is finished (step ST42).
- the media transport mechanism 15 takes out the target written media 11B from the written media storage unit 19 and sets it in the media drive 13, Finalization processing is applied to the written media 11B so that data cannot be added (step ST43). Thereafter, the written medium 11B is transported to the medium discharge port 20 so that it can be taken out (step ST44).
- the storage unit 17 stores and holds that the medium 11B has been ejected.

Then, the medium stacked on the written medium 11B to be taken out is taken out and temporarily saved in the blank medium supply unit 18. Remove the written media 11B to be ejected, finish writing to the media, return the media, and return the evacuated media to the written media storage unit 19 again. Become! /
- data can be written to and added to each medium 11, and data in the written medium 11B can be referenced or output. You can also. Furthermore, after the last data is added, or when the written media 11B is ejected, the data that has been written so far is removed. The label such as the title of the data is printed on the label surface 11a at once.
- the CD publisher 5 of this example when the CD publisher 5 of this example is applied to a customer management system in a hospital, when a patient undergoes an examination for several days, the data is stored in the CD publisher 5 You can manage a single patient by writing to media 11 every day. For example, as shown in Fig. 4 (a), if a 5-day inspection is performed, the 5th day is the final inspection date, and the final inspection result is written, the inspection items from the 1st day to the 5th inspection However, after writing the inspection result on the last 5th day, it is printed on the label surface 11a of the media 11B at once.
- Figure 4 (b) shows an example of printing in this case. In this way, data management of each patient can be performed using the media 11 one by one using the CD publisher 5 of this example.
- label printing is performed in a lump after the last data is written or when the media is removed, so that it does not overlap with the previously printed label. This eliminates the need for sensors for confirming the printing position and operation control such as rotating the media. Therefore, level printing can be performed with a simple and inexpensive configuration. Even in this case, the media 11 remains built in the CD publisher 5 before the label is printed, so there is no inconvenience.
- the media 11B after the data writing is transported to the label printer 14, where the media ID is printed on the media label surface 11a.
- the media ID is printed on the media 11B on which the data has been written, for example, if the CD publisher 5 fails, or if the media 11 is removed for maintenance, each media 11B This is preferable because it can be easily confirmed visually.
- the identification information, storage location information, information on the write data, and information on the write-once data of the written medium 11B in which the data stored in the media storage unit 12 is written are stored internally.
- the data is stored in the storage unit 17.
- a Sano database may be the same as the CD issuance history information in the server), or It can also be in the HDD of client PC3. Further, it may be stored in a storage unit of a host PC connected to the CD publisher 5. Of course, the same storage information may be stored and held in a plurality of storage locations.
