<p>An object of the present invention is to provide a tape cassette incorporating an ink ribbon capable of preventing a print image from being faintly printed when printed on a print tape and an ink void from occurring in a print image on the print tape, so as to allow a clear print image on the print tape to be printed, and a tape printing apparatus using the tape cassette. The tape cassette used in a tape printing apparatus 1 incorporates an ink ribbon 9 including a thermal printing layer including a coloring layer containing wax and pigment coated on a base film and an adhesive layer coated on the coloring layer, and a congealing point of the thermal printing layer is controlled to be 89 degrees Celsius or higher and difference between a glass transition point of the thermal printing layer and a melting point of the thermal printing layer is controlled to be 23 degrees Celsius or smaller.</p> |
