Abstract

A guide 63 for guiding a card 10 to a printing unit 50, and guides 62, 61 for guiding the card from the printing unit 50 to a storage chamber for temporary storage, are integrally formed to a frame 30 having an integrally formed opening-shaped mounting unit 32 for fastening a printing unit 50 for printing and transporting the card 10, and a flat mounting surface 31c for fastening a control board for controlling the printing unit 50. The card printer is configured by housing the frame 30 in cases 20, 40, but because the major members and components are integrally formed or fastened to the card 10, disassembly and assembly can be easily accomplished.
