ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for printing data on any specified page of a book includes a book-transporting mechanism for transporting the book to a predetermined position, while keeping a selected page of the book opened and located substantially parallel to the other pages including a specified page on which to print data. A platen roller is arranged near the other pages of the book transported to the predetermined position. The specified page is turned from the other pages of the book by a page-turning mechanism and the fore-edge portion of the specified page is guided onto the platen roller. The apparatus includes a chucking mechanism for chucking the fore-edge portion of the specified page on the platen roller, and a tension-applying mechanism for pulling the selected page away from the specified page to apply a tension on the specified page through the seam of the book. Data is printed on the specified page applied with the tension, by a printing mechanism.
