Sublimation type printer and photographic paper therefor. |
摘要 |
<p>The printer (1) includes dye tanks (11) for accommodating solid powder form sublimating dyes. The dye tanks are communicated with liquid dye vaporizing sections (17) via respective accommodating passages (15) capillary tubes provided with heating elements (16) for liquefying dyes introduced from the dye tanks. The heating elements may also be active to heat the surface of photographic paper (50) via a protective layer (13) of the head portion (10) of the printer. A vibrating element (25) may be disposed in the capillary tubes for allowing liquid dye to be provided to the vaporizing sections. Each of the vaporizing sections comprises a plurality of vaporizing pores (17a) having a light-heat converting element projected there into from a head base of the printer. A laser source (18) is mounted over the light-heat converting element, which may comprise a heat resistant, light transmitting portion having a light-heat converting layer (20) disposed on a lower end thereof. The vaporizing pores allow a sufficient amount of liquid dye to be adhered to the lower side of the light-heat converting element to be vaporized and adhered to the surface of photographic papier upon irradiation by a laser beam from the laser source. <IMAGE></p> |
