Abstract
A printing device which comprises a thermal head for printing a dot pattern image, a driving mechanism for moving a tape which serves as a recording medium, and a DC motor, is disclosed. Printing by the thermal head is inhibited while the DC motor is accelerating. Printing is then executed when the DC motor rotates at a constant speed. The dot pattern image data is printed utilizing a printing frequency having a constant value and which is obtained by dividing a CPU clock. The rotation speed of the DC motor is preset by elements incorporated in the control circuit of the DC motor.
