Abstract

A positive image is formed in real time on one face of an inked ribbon (R) by means of a selective thermal transfer of ink with the use of a thermal dot-line or dot-matrix printing head (H). The positive image is then transferred from the inked ribbon (R) to the article (A) with the use of a heating pad (P). <IMAGE>
