A size-reduced printer that conveys a recording sheet in a circulating manner along a ring-like conveyance path while printing a plurality of images on the recording sheet in different colors sequentially in a superimposed manner, thereby forming a full color image. When a ribbon cassette that contains a multi-color ink ribbon (60) is loaded at a predetermined position within a printer housing (1), a ring-like conveyance path (12) is formed between the ribbon cassette 50 and the printer housing (1). While the thermal head (7) is driven and the recording sheet (30) is conveyed once in a circulating manner along the conveyance path (12), a one-color image is printed on a previous printed one-color image in a superimposed manner in a corresponding one of the different color inks of the multi-color ink ribbon (60), thereby forming a full color image finally.
