Zusammenfassung:A head control unit (9) is provided with control signal generators (91, 92) for generating signals necessary for a dynamic drive system and a static drive system. On the basis of a discrimination signal (DIS) output from a mounted LED printing head, a head type detection circuit (10) automatically detects whether the mounted LED printing head is a static type LED printing head or a dynamic type LED printing head. A CPU (15) controls a selector (93) to select signals generated by the control signal generator (91) if the static type LED printing head is mounted, and to select signals generated by the control signal generator (92) if the dynamic type LED printing head is mounted. The selected signals are delivered to the mounted LED printing head.
