Description

[Brief explanation of drawings]

Fig. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a recording device according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figs. 2 and 3 are enlarged sectional views of different types of recording paper, and Fig. 4 shows the contact pressure within the head contact width range. Diagram showing how it changes, 5th
The figure shows the characteristic curve of the maximum contact pressure when the hardness of the rubber layer of the platen is changed, and Figures 6 and 7 show examples of means for preventing misalignment between the image receiving paper and the sheet for increasing printing pressure. FIG. 3 is a perspective view for each example; 1...Thermal head as a recording head, 2
...Platen, 3... Ink sheet, 4... Recording paper, 5, 5'... Sheet for increasing printing pressure, 7... Printing section.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claim for Utility Model Registration] (1) In a recording device that transports an ink sheet and recording paper while being pressed between a recording head and a platen, and performs thermal transfer recording at the printing section in the pinched area, the printing pressure 1. A recording apparatus characterized in that, when performing thermal transfer recording on a recording paper that requires a high level of pressure, a printing pressure increasing sheet is used which is superimposed on the non-recording surface of the recording paper and sent to a printing section. (2) The recording apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a part of the surface of the printing pressure increasing sheet that is overlapped with the recording paper is coated with an adhesive that can be peeled off from the recording paper that is the object to be adhered.
