PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance efficiency of printing to a can body.SOLUTION: A can body 10 (mandrel 8) input to a printer 1 passes through the lower side of a first printing part 21. At this time, ink is discharged from 5 inkjet heads H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 provided in the first printing part 21 toward the can body 10 located on the lower side and an image is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the can body 10. Then, the can body 10 passes through a first rotation part 31 and reaches the lower side of a second printing part 22. The first rotation part 31 conveys the can body 10 along a predetermined conveyance path RP and conveys the can body 10 toward the second printing part 22 while rotating the can body 10 in a circumferential direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
