Method of manufacturing a thermal head and thermal printer using the head

摘要

A thermal head, comprising: an insulating substrate (1); a heat storage layer (2) provided on the insulating substrate; a heat generating resistance layer (3) provided on the heat storage layer; an individual electrode (4) and a common electrode (5) formed on the heat generating resistance layer; a protective film layer (6) covering the heat generating resistance layer, the individual electrode, and the common electrode; and a resin covering layer (7) formed by applying and drying fluorine-based resin particles dissolved in a volatile solvent on a surface of the protective film layer.
