Thermal transfer color recording device

摘要

A thermal transfer color recording device comprising a recording portion for effecting thermal transfer color recording by clamping and conveying an ink sheet on which ink of two or more colors being applied respectively on areas nearly equal to or larger than desired recording areas and a recording paper between a thermal head having a plurality of rectilinear heating elements and a platen roller adapted to selectively press the heating elements. A grip roller is located downstream side from the recording portion for clamping and conveying the recording paper between a pinch roller being resiliently biassed agaist the grip roller. An auxiliary roller is located upstream side from the recording portion and clamping and conveying the recording paper only between the platen roller. There are provided minute projections on the surface of the grip roller for ensuring the gripping and conveying operation.
