摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus for performing the recording of an image on a recording medium by transferring ink contained in an ink sheet to the recording medium has an ink sheet, a conveyance unit for conveying the ink sheet, a recording medium conveyance unit for conveying the recording medium, a recording unit for recording an image on the recording medium by activating the ink sheet, a counting unit for counting the black dot numbers in the current line, a timing unit for measuring the elapsed time since the image recording in the last line by the recording unit, and a control unit for controlling the ink sheet to be conveyed for a predetermined length without conveying the recording medium in accordance with the timing value of the timing unit and the counting value of the counting unit subsequent to the current line recording by the recording, thus making it possible to separate the ink sheet and recording sheet more reliably to maintain a high recording quality.
摘要:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer recording apparatus for image recording by ink transfer from an ink sheet, in which the thermal head is energized in divided manner in plural blocks, and the recording sheet and the ink sheet are so transported as to generate a relative speed therebetween, thus facilitating the ink peeling from the ink sheet.
摘要:
A heat transfer recording method of transferring the ink of an ink sheet to a recording medium to thereby effect recording of an image on the recording medium is characterized in that the ink sheet is conveyed in the direction opposite to the conveyance direction of the recording medium and recording of an image is effected on the recording medium.
摘要:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer printer for image recording by ink transfer from an ink sheet onto a recording sheet, which is capable of stable sheet transportation and improvement in image quality. The printer has transport mechanisms for the ink sheet and the recording sheet, a thermal head for heating the ink sheet, and a controller. If a next recording operation is not instructed by the end of a preceding recording operation, the controller starts the transportation of the sheets and at the same time activates the thermal head with an energy smaller than in the ordinary image recording, thus effecting pre-heating of the thermal head prior to the start of the next recording operation.
摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus for image recording on a recording medium by transfer of ink from an ink sheet is taught. This apparatus includes recording means for transferring ink from the ink sheet onto a recording medium to record, a rotary member capable of rotation for transporting the recording medium, and transporting means for transporting the ink sheet with a relative speed with respect to the recording medium, wherein the frictional force between the recording medium and the rotary member is made larger than the shearing force in the ink in the ink sheet during the recording operation.
摘要:
A heat transfer recording apparatus for transferring the ink of an ink sheet to a recording medium to thereby effect the recording of images on the recording medium has ink sheet conveying means for conveying the ink sheet, recording medium conveying means for conveying the recording medium, recording means for acting on the ink sheet to effect the recording of images on the recording medium, counting means for counting the number of bits of black information of image data recorded by the recording means, and control means for controlling so as to change the recording period by the recording means in conformity with the number of the bits of black information counted by the counting means.
摘要:
A recording apparatus having a function of sorting recording sheets is reduced in size and cost. The recording apparatus conveys the recording sheets, records on the recording sheets, discharges the recording sheets, and sorts the discharged recording sheets. The recording apparatus includes: a movable carriage that holds a recording head for recording on the recording sheets; and a sorting mechanism that controls positions of the recording sheets so that the discharged recording sheets are sorted, and the sorting mechanism is configured to be operated by the carriage and sort the recording sheets in accordance with a position of the carriage.
摘要:
A thermal transfer recording apparatus for performing recording of data on a recording medium by transferring ink of an ink sheet on said recording medium comprises conveying means for conveying said ink sheet and recording medium, recording means for effecting said ink sheet to record image data on said recording medium, and control means for counting time after image recording by said recording means and driving said recording means when the next image recording is not performed in a predetermined time period.
摘要:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer recording apparatus for recording an image by ink transfer from an ink sheet to a recording sheet, capable, in conveyance of either sheet only, of preventing the other sheet, from being drawn therewith by increasing the holding force for retaining the other sheet in the stopped state at conveyance of the first-mentioned sheet.
摘要:
A recording method for recording on a recording medium by using an ink jet recording head having plural electrothermal converting members and discharging ink using thermal energy generated by the electrothermal converting members. The method involves measuring a driving ratio of the electrothermal converting members for each one line, determining a time period between termination of recording of a previous line and commencement of a recording of the next line in accordance with the driving ratio responsive to the next line measured in the measuring step, and allowing the next line to be recorded after passage of the determined time period.
