    摘要: A thermal transfer printer of the intermediate transfer type that first melts ink of an ink ribbon by heat of a thermal head and subsequently transfers the molten ink onto an intermediate transfer member to thereby form a primary recording image, and finally re-transfers this primary recording image onto paper to thereby perform a desired recording. The intermediate transfer member is made of a material selected in such a manner that the coefficient of friction for this material is equal to or more than 1.0. In one embodiment, the material of the intermediate transfer member is silicon rubber.

    摘要: There is disclosed an apparatus for restoring an ink jet recording head which can securely recover the ink jet recording head from the ink non-ejection condition caused by foreign particles or bubbles adhering inside the ink passage of an ejecting nozzle and which can prevent unnecessary bubbles from generating in the ink jet recording head. In the restoring operation, in which foreign particles are discharged together with ink from the ejecting nozzle by pressurizing the ink in an ink tank, an inner pressure of an ink supply passage is adjusted to reach a set pressure value.

    摘要: A drive control method for a thermal transfer printer adapted to carry out printing by melting a thermofusible ink of an ink ribbon and transferring the molten ink onto a printing paper. The ink ribbon is formed with a blank portion coated with no ink, which blank portion is formed between an ink layer and a mark for indicating the ink layer. Under the condition where the thermal head is spaced from the printing paper, the ink ribbon is moved to bring the blank portion into opposition to the thermal head. At this position, the thermal head is pressed through the blank portion against the printing paper. Then, the thermal head is moved relative to the printing paper and the ink layer, and simultaneously the thermal head is heated to transfer the ink of the ink layer onto the printing paper. According to this drive control method, no ink is transferred onto the printing paper upon pressing the thermal head through the ink ribbon against the printing paper, thereby preventing staining of the printing paper due to the ink.

    摘要翻译: 一种用于热转印打印机的驱动控制方法,适用于通过熔化墨带的热熔油墨并将熔融油墨转印到打印纸上进行打印。 墨带形成有没有油墨的空白部分,该空白部分形成在油墨层和用于指示油墨层的标记之间。 在热敏头与打印纸间隔开的条件下,墨带被移动以使空白部分与热敏头相对。 在该位置,热敏头通过空白部分压靠在打印纸上。 然后,热敏头相对于打印纸和油墨层移动,同时热敏头被加热以将油墨层的油墨转印到打印纸上。 根据这种驱动控制方法,当通过墨带将热敏打印头压靠在打印纸上时,不会将墨水转印到打印纸上,从而防止由于油墨导致的打印纸的污染。

    摘要: A thermal transfer printer erases previously recorded characters by applying heating energy of higher surface density than that used to originally transfer thermally fusible material onto a recording sheet. A thermal transfer tape made of a polyester film and a layer of thermally fusible material is interposed between a thermal head of the printer and the recording sheet at the position to be erased. The thermally fusible material has a higher adhering affinity for the polyester film than for the recording sheet at the higher heating energy level and thus fusible material previously recorded on the recording sheet adheres to the tape at the higher energy level. When the tape is pulled away from the recording sheet, the previously recorded character adheres to the tape and is pulled away with it.
