There is provided a compact simplex and duplex printer which can be produced easily at a low cost. The simplex and duplex printer 10 includes: a thermal head 12 for performing printing on a substrate 1, 41; a rolled substrate supply section 42 for supplying a continuous substrate 41, which is to be printed on one side, to the thermal head 12; and a sheet-like substrate supply section 25, provided below the rolled substrate supply section 42, for sequentially supplying sheet-like substrates 1, which are to be printed on both sides, to the thermal head 12. A reversing mechanism 20 for reversing a sheet-like substrate 1 which has been returned from the thermal head 12 is disposed between the thermal head 12 and the sheet-like substrate supply section 25. The reversing mechanism 20 is disposed just below the rolled substrate supply section 42. |
