To provide printing equipment which can precisely execute recording and printing of an image, although the constitution thereof is simple.

On the occasion of executing printing, a movement amount regulating cam 63 is disposed at a position D shown by a virtual line, and a moving plate 61 is driven by an actuator 62 to be disposed at a position A or B shown by a virtual line. In this state, a plate cylinder gear 41 and a blanket cylinder gear 42 are engaged with each other and a first plate cylinder 11 is driven to rotate by a driving motor. On the occasion of recording an image, the movement amount regulating cam 63 is disposed at a position E shown by a solid line, while the moving plate 61 is disposed at a position shown by a solid line C, being driven by the actuator 62. In this state, the relation of engagement between the plate cylinder gear and the blanket cylinder gear is canceled. Herein the plate cylinder gear 41 is driven by the motor and the first plate cylinder 11 is rotated at a low speed.
