Image recording device

An image recording device comprising:

• two drums each of which retains a recording medium on circumference thereof, each of which is rotatably supported,
• a printing head that forms an image on the recording medium, a revolving unit that retains rotating shafts of the two drums on circumference thereof, which is rotatable,
• a first driving unit that drives to rotate the two drums, and
• a second driving unit that drives to rotate the revolving unit, wherein
• when the first driving unit rotates one of the two drums to form an image on a first recording medium retained on circumference thereof, the first driving unit rotates the other drum to mount a second recording medium on circumference thereof, and
• the second driving unit rotates one of the drums to a recording medium peeling position after completing image formation, and the other drum to a printing position.

An image recording device comprising:

• three drums (first drum, second drum, and third drum) each of which retains a recording medium on circumference thereof, each of which is rotatably supported,
• a printing head that forms an image on the recording medium,
• a revolving unit that retains rotating shafts of the three drums on circumference thereof, which is rotatable,
• a first driving unit that drives to rotate the three drums, and
• a second driving unit that drives to rotate the revolving unit, wherein
• when the first driving unit rotates the first drum to form an image on a first recording medium retained on circumference thereof, the first driving unit rotates the second drum to mount a second recording medium on circumference thereof, and rotates the third drum to peel a third recording medium, and
• the second driving unit rotates the first drum to a recording medium peeling position after completing image formation, the second drum to a printing position, and the third drum to a recording medium mounting position.
