PURPOSE: To provide a thermal printer capable of effectively taking measures against noise in the printing part having both a melting type printing function and sublimating type printing function with a simple structure, besides, enabling printing speed to highly be accelerated. CONSTITUTION: The thermal printer 2 includes a printing part such as a thermal head or the like, a case 4 housed in the printing part, and air ventilation holes formed In the case 4, and the printing part consists of having a printing mode capable of corresponding to any of a melting type ink ribbon or sublImating type ink ribbon, and further the air ventilation holes is set up with an air ventilation control mechanism 10 adapted to arbitrarily change the opening area of the air ventilation holes 8. |
