PURPOSE:To make available a printing method by which high-quality character and image printing can be performed by adopting printing technique which does not allow ink and a medium to be transferred to touch each other at the non-recording part of the ink and rolling ink dots on paper to be transferred after application of thermal energy using a heat roller. CONSTITUTION:The titled printing method is a printing technique for transferring the recording part of ink to a medium to be transferred by magnetic attraction force through the control of thermal energy application using a means 11 to apply thermal energy to the recording part 13 of thermoplastic magnetic ink and a means 15 to generate magnetic attraction force in the ink. In a printing method which does not allow ink and a medium to be transferred to contact each other at the non-recording part 12 of ink, ink dots on paper to be transferred are rolled using a heat roller 16 after application of thermal energy. Ink is transferred by magnetic attraction force under a thermal activation state of ink and no process of stripping off an ink medium is required. In addition, the fixing of ink into paper is markedly improved by melting and rolling ink dots after transfer and thereby the difficulty to link the dots can be overcome. |
