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 advancement of the recording medium to the cutter, the ink sheet is wound onto the wind-up roll at a speed such that the ratio of conveyance speeds of the ink sheet and recording medium is greater than during recording. During retraction of the recording medium, the ink sheet is conveyed by friction with the recording medium in a direction opposed to the load.

A thermal transfer recording apparatus for transferring an ink of an ink sheet onto a recording medium to record an image on the recording medium, includes an ink sheet convey unit for conveying the ink sheet, a recording medium convey unit for conveying the recording medium, a recording unit which is driven in correspondence with image data and records an image on the recording medium using the ink sheet, and a control unit for, when a next recording operation is not instructed after image recording by the recording unit, driving the recording unit with an energy lower than that in a normal image recording mode, and for, when a time interval until the next recording operation becomes equal to or longer than a predetermined period of time after the above driving operation, driving the recording unit with an energy lower than that in the normal image recording mode at a predetermined time interval.
摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus which performs image recording by causing a recording head to act on an ink sheet so as to transfer ink from the ink sheet onto recording paper. Changes in the take-up amount of the ink sheet, which is fed by being wound onto a take-up roller, are detected from changes in the amount by which the ink sheet is fed with respect to a given drive amount of an ink-sheet feeding motor, and, on the basis of the changes detected, the driving torque for the ink-sheet feeding motor is changed, thereby reducing the noise generated and the power consumed by the apparatus.
摘要:
In a thermal transfer recording apparatus, an image is recorded on a recording medium by transferring ink from an ink sheet. The apparatus includes a holder for the ink sheet, conveyors for the ink sheet and recording medium, and an ink sheet detector. When the detector determines that the ink sheet is loaded into the holder, the ink sheet is conveyed so as to take up the slack in the ink sheet until the ink sheet reaches a predetermined speed.
