DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to thermal transfer printing aptitude,
The present invention relates to a time card that can achieve both moisture resistance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Usually, in an office or a factory, a time card for recording and printing the time at which an employee enters and leaves the office is used, and as shown in FIG. Each time card 2 is recorded.

The time card 2 has a name entry field 4, an affiliated department entry field 5, an employee code entry field 6, an attendance time, and the like in a predetermined place of a card substrate 3 of standard dimensions that can be inserted into the card insertion slot 1a of the time clock 1. , Entry time, etc., and a bar code entry column 8 are set.

The time card substrate 3 needs to have moisture resistance in consideration of the environment in which it is used, such as outdoors, and conventionally, resin-impregnated paper is required to have desired moisture resistance and strength. It is used.

[0005]

However, the card base material 3 using the resin-impregnated paper is inferior in thermal transfer printing when printing the name and department in the name entry section 4 and the section entry section 5 and is clear. It is difficult to perform appropriate printing, and in particular, a bar code a such as an employee code is liable to cause a reading error, and has a management problem.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and in consideration of the environment in which a time card is used, the desired moisture resistance and strength are ensured, the thermal transfer printing aptitude is improved, and a bar code is formed. It is another object of the present invention to provide a time card capable of performing a smooth management without causing a reading error.

[0007]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a time card according to the first aspect of the present invention, which receives a heat transfer print at least on a pre-printed portion such as a name of a card base material such as a resin impregnated paper having moisture resistance. A layer is provided.

[0008] Here, the time card base material only needs to have desired moisture resistance and strength. For example, a resin-impregnated paper (a ticket card paper manufactured by Hamakawa Paper Co., Ltd.) is preferable.
In addition, as an ink for thermal transfer printing which is applied to a name entry column or a section entry column on the surface of a time card base material, (L Carton Medium manufactured by T & K TOKA CORPORATION) and the like can be mentioned. The entire surface of the base material may be coated with a thermal transfer printing receptive ink.

Next, the invention according to claim 2 is to print a moisture-resistant OP varnish layer on the entire surface of the front and back surfaces of a card base material such as high quality paper or at least a portion excluding a preprinted portion such as a name. It is characterized by having done.

Here, the time card base material only needs to have a desired strength, such as a base paper not subjected to the moisture-proof processing, for example, a high-quality paper. An OP varnish that does not print anything in the section entry section or the data entry field such as the time of attending / exiting and has moisture resistance in other parts, such as L Carton Medium, Matt OP Varnish, and STP Medium manufactured by T & K TOKA Co., Ltd. May be printed.

As is apparent from the above configuration, claim 1
According to the described invention, since the resin-impregnated paper is used as the time card base material, the base material itself has a desired moisture resistance, and also has an appropriate strength when handling the time card.

[0012] Further, since the heat transfer printing receptive ink is applied to the preprinted portion of the card base made of resin impregnated paper, clear printing can be performed by the heat transfer printer.

Furthermore, it is possible to print an employee code and the like, a bar code and the like with high accuracy, and eliminate a reworking operation, so that a reading error does not occur.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, high-quality paper or the like which is inexpensive and suitable for thermal transfer printing is used as a time card base material, and at least a portion excluding a preprinted portion has moisture resistance. Since a printing process such as an OP varnish for imparting a color is performed, both functions of proper thermal transfer printing and moisture resistance can be achieved.

[0015]
