摘要:
In a thermal transfer recording apparatus, a recording medium of a continuous web form and an ink sheet are transported with respect to each other. During image recording, the amounts by which the recording medium and ink sheet are transported satisfy a first relationship. After image recording, the recording medium is transported for cutting, and the recording medium and ink sheet are each transported by predetermined amounts which satisfy another relationship different from the first.
摘要:
A heat transfer recording method and apparatus for recording images onto a recording medium is realized by transferring ink contained in an ink sheet onto said recording medium. The apparatus comprises means for conveying the ink sheet in both the positive direction and the direction opposite to the positive direction, means for conveying the recording medium, and means for recording images onto the recording medium by acting on the ink sheet. The method is characterized in that a determination is made whether or not the length of images recorded onto the recording medium is less than or equal to that of the recording medium, and if so, the ink sheet is stopped and the recording medium is conveyed so that an end portion of said recording medium may be positioned at a recording position with the recording means.
摘要:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer printer for image recording by ink transfer from an ink sheet onto a recording sheet, capable of stable sheet transportation and improvement in image quality. The printer has transport mechanisms for the ink sheet and the recording sheet, a thermal head for heating the ink sheet, and a controller. If a next recording operation is instructed at the end of a preceding recording operation, the controller starts the transportation of the sheets and at the same time activates the thermal head with an energy smaller than in the ordinary image recording, thus effecting pre-heating of the thermal head, prior to the start of next recording operation.
摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus, which transfers ink contained on an ink sheet onto a recording medium to record images thereon, and comprises a means for conveying the ink sheet and recording medium; recording means for effecting the ink sheet to record the image on the recording medium; and adjusting means for adjusting the conveyance amount of the ink sheet against the recording medium at the time of starting the next recording action if the recording action is suspended after the unit of a predetermined amount of image data has been recorded by the above-mentioned recording means.
摘要:
In a thermal transfer recording apparatus, an image is recorded on a recording medium by transferring ink of an ink sheet. The ink sheet is wound onto a wind-up roll from a feed roll against an applied load. During the recording process the ink sheet and recording medium are conveyed in opposite directions. After recording of one page is completed, the recording medium is advanced, cut, and then retracted. During retraction of the recording medium, the ink sheet is conveyed by friction with the recording medium in a direction opposed to the load.
摘要:
In a thermal transfer recording apparatus, an ink sheet and a recording medium are separately conveyed, an image is recorded on the recording medium, and the recording mode is discriminated. The conveyance amounts of the ink sheet and recording medium are controlled in accordance with the recording mode so that the density of the recorded image is maintained constant.

摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus for image recording on a recording medium by transfer of ink from an ink sheet is taught. This apparatus includes recording means for transferring ink from the ink sheet onto a recording medium to record, a rotary member capable of rotation for transporting the recording medium, and transporting means for transporting the ink sheet with a relative speed with respect to the recording medium, wherein the frictional force between the recording medium and the rotary member is made larger than the shearing force in the ink in the ink sheet during the recording operation.

A heat transfer recording apparatus for transferring the ink of an ink sheet to a recording medium to thereby effect the recording of images on the recording medium has ink sheet conveying means for conveying the ink sheet, recording medium conveying means for conveying the recording medium, recording means for acting on the ink sheet to effect the recording of images on the recording medium, counting means for counting the number of bits of black information of image data recorded by the recording means, and control means for controlling so as to change the recording period by the recording means in conformity with the number of the bits of black information counted by the counting means.
摘要:
A recording method for recording on a recording medium by using an ink jet recording head having plural electrothermal converting members and discharging ink using thermal energy generated by the electrothermal converting members. The method involves measuring a driving ratio of the electrothermal converting members for each one line, determining a time period between termination of recording of a previous line and commencement of a recording of the next line in accordance with the driving ratio responsive to the next line measured in the measuring step, and allowing the next line to be recorded after passage of the determined time period.
