In a dot line printer having a plurality of print hammers which are arranged to print a plurality of dot lines simultaneously when a hammer bank on which the print hammers are mounted performs one scan from one extreme to another, the dot lines originally assigned to the print hammers for printing are changed provided that a particular print hammer is driven an undue number of times when the originally assigned positions of the print hammers are maintained in the subsequent scans of the hammer bank.

To prevent effective print speed from being lowered, a counter is provided for each of a plurality of print hammers. A number of times a print hammer is driven during one print phase having a predetermined period of time is counted by the counter. The counted value is compared with a reference value, and when the counted value has reached the reference value during the print phase, driving of the print hammer is halted until the end of the print phase. A reference value is changed based on the number of times the print hammer is driven during a previous print phase immediately before the present print phase. The reference value represents an allowable number the print hammer can be driven during each of successive print phases.
