A pertinent amount of Image data of an image to be drawn on a surface of an optical disc is intermittently transmitted from a computer to an optical disc image drawing apparatus. The optical disc image drawing apparatus stores the transmitted image in a buffer memory and successively reads the stored image data in a constant speed to performing the drawing operation on the surface of the optical disc. The computer counts the total amount of image data of transmission is completed and calculates a drawing radial position, which corresponds to the counted total amount with a currently drawing radial position. The computer displays a picture of the drawing image on a display so that the currently drawing radial position calculated above can be visually recognized.
