A printer of heat-sensitive transfer type has a horizontally arranged ink ribbon cassette to print a sheet of printing paper with the ink ribbon. The printer comprises: a platen for holding thereon the printing paper; a horizontal printing head made movable along the platen for bringing the ink ribbon into close contact with the printing paper held on the platen to thermally transfer the ink of the ink ribbon onto the printing paper; and a carriage made movable longitudinally of the platen, while carrying the printing head thereon, in accordance with the printing operation of the printing head. An ink ribbon peeling member is arranged horizontally on the sides of the printing head and carried together with the printing head by the carriage for sequentially peeling off that portion of the ink ribbon, which has been used for the printing operation, from the printing paper.
