The heat-sensitive recording apparatus includes a thermal head in which drive power is supplied at heating elements located at both ends in the main scanning direction, and both impedances from at least one connecting portion connecting a common electrode connected to all of the heating elements to heating elements at both ends in the main scanning direction are equal to and an image processing section which, in accordance with image data, determines a current distribution within the common electrode for each of positions in the main scanning direction that correspond to the heating elements, determines amount of voltage drop due to resistance of the common electrode as a function of a position in the main scanning direction using the determined current distribution and corrects resulting density unevenness in accordance with the image data based on both the amount of voltage drop due to the resistance of the common electrode as the function of the position in the main scanning direction and the amount of voltage drop due to resistances that are independent of the position in the main scanning direction.
