Abstract:
1. An apparatus for magnetic print, comprising: a master disc retaining unit for retaining a master disc having a magnetic part of ferromagnetic thin film formed on a disc-like substrate, pattern corresponding to data signals formed on the master disc; a disc retaining unit for selectively retaining a disc-like medium or a magnetic recording medium; and a magnetizing unit for applying magnetic field to the magnetic part of said master disc, wherein at least one of said master disc retaining unit and said disc retaining unit bring at least one of the magnetic part of the master disc and the disc-like medium toward the other a plurality of times, overlap position between said master disc and said disc like medium is different each of said times, and thereafter overlapping said master disc and said magnetic recording medium; said magnetizing unit magnetizes the magnetic part to magnetically print the pattern corresponding to the data signals formed on the master disc onto said magnetic recording medium.
