Then, reverse the paper 3 by one page again, and use the magenta part of the color film 2 to print magenta over the part of the page that has already been printed in yellow and cyan that you want to print in black. . By overprinting f41) yellow, cyan, and magenta on this operation, black is printed on the desired black printing area,
In addition, yellow printing is performed in areas where yellow printing is desired. However, with such conventional technology, the black printing part requires printing three times, which increases the printing time and triples the amount of printing work.Also, three pages are required for each of the three color ink films. Therefore, it becomes a waste. Also, for example, if a black part is provided in the color ink film 2 and four colors are used, black printing is often used, but in the case of only this black printing, the remaining three color parts of the color ink film 2 are not used. , which has the disadvantage of being wasted.

的な単色兼多色印刷が可能となる。FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a printer according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 to 5 are the same parts as those in FIG. 1, 6 is a black thermal head, and 7 is a black ink film. With the above configuration, when printing black, the black ink film 7 is printed using the thermal head 6 exclusively for black.
When printing in yellow, cyan, and magenta, the multicolor thermal head 1 prints via the desired color portion of the multicolor ink film 2. Therefore, according to the printer of the present invention, in the case of black printing as in the past, there is no need for three-fold printing, and the ink film can be used without wasting it, making it possible to perform monochrome and multicolor printing quickly and economically. becomes.
