PURPOSE:To obtain an electrothermal recording device in which foreign particles and dust applied to an ink sheet are removed for preventing a deterioration of an image quality of a printing image. CONSTITUTION:A transport path 5 for feeding recording paper 3 and an ink sheet 4, which are overlapped with each other, is formed on a platen roller 1. An electrothermal head 2 is provided for depressing the recording paper 3 and the ink sheet 4 fed through the transport path 5 against the platen roller 1. A foreign particle-removing adhesive roller 9 is disposed near the electrothermal head 2 on the upstream side of the transport path 5 so as to come into contact with the ink sheet 4. Prior to transferring, foreign particles and dust applied on the surface of the ink sheet 4 are attracted to the foreign particle- removing adhesive roller 9 to be positively removed from the ink sheet 4. In this manner, a blanking caused by a failure in recording transfer and a discharge breakdown of the ink sheet 4 are prevented. |
