PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thermal transfer printer capable of suppressing a difference in density level and a variation in hue of images to be thermally transferred onto a first image receiving face and a second image receiving face. ! SOLUTION: The thermal transfer printer comprises: a heat storage amount arithmetic operation portion 5 that arithmetically operates heat storage amounts of an image receiving paper 15 when thermally transferring an image onto a first image receiving face of both faces of the image receiving paper 15; and a correction amount arithmetic operation portion 6 that when thermally transferring the image onto a second image receiving face, the opposite face of the first image receiving face, arithmetically operates, on the basis of the heat storage amounts of the image receiving paper 15, heating correction amounts required for correcting heating time for thermally transferring the image onto the second image receiving face, in order to compensate for variations of density |
