Abstract
An image generating apparatus capable of improving positional accuracy of a bearing of a side plate with respect to a chassis is obtained. In this thermal transfer printer (image generating apparatus), a round hole receiving a platen roller bearing of a side plate is provided on a side surface of a chassis. The side plate is mounted on the chassis by bringing the side plate into contact with the side surface of the chassis in a state inclined by a prescribed angle θ and thereafter rotating the side plate about the platen roller bearing serving as the rotation center.
