A thermal printer comprises: a ROM 11 for storing a heat history correction table; a RAM 12 for storing the density-related energizing time data for the first and second preceding lines printed immediately before the current line to be printed and the density-related energizing time data before a correction for the current line to be printed which includes a target dot T; and a control section for comparing the density-related energizing time data for the first and second preceding lines and the density-related energizing time data before a correction for both adjacent dots T 1 and T 2 of the target dot T with the density-related energizing time data before a correction for the target dot T to select reference data, and further for performing a corrective operation for the pre-correction energizing time data for the target dot T using thus selected reference data to calculate energizing time data for the target dot T to be printed, whereby it is possible to prevent the temperature of a thermal head from being reduced excessively.
