A video printer is disclosed. An input video signal is converted into a digital signal and stored in a memory. The write/read operation and memory addresses of the memory are controlled by a memory control unit. The signal read out of the memory is converted into print data, and an image is printed by a printer. The print data and the printing operation are controlled by a print control unit, and at least a part of the memory areas of the memory is controlled in the write operation by an area control unit.
