Abstract
A user operates the operation panel portionand selects an image quality mode in a pre-stage of carrying out CD-R printing. If an operation of commencing CD-R printing on the operation panel portionis enabled, the CPUcauses the scanner unitto scan a sample CD-Rand takes in the image data. The CPUcauses the taken-in image data to be subjected to an image working process and masks pixels not required to be printed. The ASICtransfers the processed image data to the printer unitand executes CD-R printing. At this time, the CPUcarries out scanning and printing at a resolution responsive to the image quality mode.
