A thermal transfer printer capable of providing an image with high recording quality without dullness even in the event of recording on paper using an ink ribon of heat-melt ink or heat-sublimation ink comprises a platen 2, a carriage 4, and a thermal head 7. The thermal transfer printer records a desired image on paper by transferring the heat-melt ink or heat-sublimation ink on an ink ribbon 17 onto the paper, and subsequently smoothes the image recorded on the paper by pressing the thermal head 7 against the surface of the recorded image with the heat-resistant film 27 introduced between the surface of the thermal head 7 and the recorded image. <IMAGE> |
