OPTICAL DISK IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical disk image forming apparatus capable of surely deciding a set face of an optical disk when an image is formed on the optical disk. SOLUTION: The optical disk image forming apparatus decides sides of the optical disk opposed to a laser light beam irradiating means to be irradiated with a laser light beam by irradiating the optical disk with the laser light beam oscillated in a radius direction of the optical disk at an amplitude larger than at least the eccentricity of a rotating means and the eccentricity of the optical disk or in cycles shorter than the rotating means. Further, a band-pass filter is provided to output a signal for determining that a label surface of the optical disk where an image is formed is set. The data recording surface and label surface of the optical disk can surely be decided regardless of whether an image is formed on the label surface of the optical disk. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
