Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the need for large-current wirings and contrive a reduction in the number of component parts and a simplification of assembling steps, by integrally forming a first core member for supplying a printing voltage to a heat generating part and a second core member for GND lines which is electrically independent from the first core member. CONSTITUTION:An enameled substrate 20 comprises a first core member 21 for supplying a printing voltage to a heat generating part 7 and a second core member 22 for GND lines which is electrically independent from the first core member 21. The heat generating part 7 can be connected to the first core member 21, and the GND lines for a driving circuit 3 can be connected directly to the second core member 22, so that there is no need for those electrodes which are conventionally used. Since the first core member 21 and the second core member 22 are integrally formed, there is no need for large-current wirings or an assembling operation for the core members. Accordingly, a reduction in the number of component parts and a simplification of assembling steps can be contrived.
