発明が解決しようとする問題点
このような従来の構成では、複雑な情報記録をさせる場
合、たとえば、強調文字〔二重文字〕。Problems to be Solved by the Invention With such a conventional configuration, when complicated information is to be recorded, for example, emphasized characters (double characters).

一行に記録させる場合等サーマルヘッドを２度スキャン
ニング及び１度の紙送シを必要とする為、
■ 記録時間が長くなる。When recording high-density characters (characters recorded between the pitches of the heating elements of the thermal head), quadruple-width double-width characters, arbitrary point characters on the same line, etc., the thermal head needs to be scanned twice and the paper fed once. ■ Recording time becomes longer.
■ 縦線がジグザグになり易い〔文字ズレ〕。■ Vertical lines tend to become zigzag [letter misalignment].
■ 行間ピッチが不安定になり易い〔行間ピッチズレ〕
。 −
等の問題があった。■ Line pitch tends to become unstable [line pitch deviation]

ドである。FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of an edge type thermal head showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, heat radiating parts 6, 6 are fixed to the heads 1, 2. Furthermore, this is an example in which they are connected at a connecting part 7 via a heat radiating part 6.6, and the connecting part 7 is slidable. By using a thermal head with this configuration, it is possible to increase the printing speed and to slide multiple thermal heads arbitrarily when scanning the carriage (including the thermal head). This thermal head is designed to record complex information such as double-height characters easily and at high speed.
