A thermal printer includes a thermal head and a head driver for driving the thermal head so as to decrease the applied energy to the thermal head for a print area where copying is unnecessary below that for a print area where copying is necessary. By so doing, the applied energy and the printing speed can be made most suitable in the thermal printer that prints onto a recording medium having a print area where copying is unnecessary and a print area where copying is necessary. |
