構成する必要はなく、たとえば第２図に示すように、パ
ンケーキ状リボン（１１）としで、コア（１２）に巻取
るように構成してもよい。Incidentally, the heat generating sheet (1) does not necessarily have to be configured in an endless shape, but for example, as shown in FIG. Good too.
このようにして、熱溶融転写インクリボンを使用して、
通電ヘッドにより記録紙に印像を形成したところ、記録
軟土にえられた印像は、記録紙としてとくに平滑度の低
い紙を用いたばあいは、従来のサーマルヘッドによるば
あいに比べ、明らかに鮮明度が良好であった。In this way, using a hot melt transfer ink ribbon,
When a print image is formed on a recording paper using an energized head, the print image formed on the recording soft soil is different from that obtained using a conventional thermal head, especially when paper with low smoothness is used as the recording paper. The clarity was clearly good.
つまり、従来のサーマルヘッドによるばあいは、ボンド
紙などのベック平滑度が数秒程度の粗い紙に印像を形成
することはほとんど不可能であったが、前記本発明の実
施例では、このような粗い紙にも良好な印像の形成が可
能であった。In other words, with the conventional thermal head, it was almost impossible to form an image on rough paper such as bond paper with a Bekk smoothness of several seconds, but in the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to It was possible to form a good impression even on rough paper.

特徴とする通電転写式記録方法。1. Using a heat-generating sheet made of an electrically resistive conductive base material with a layer of highly conductive material attached to the surface thereof and an ink ribbon made of a heat transferable ink layer provided on the surface of the base material, a current-carrying head and a recording paper are connected. The heating sheet and the ink ribbon are interposed between the heating sheet and the ink ribbon. The heating sheet is locally heated by applying electricity to the heating sheet, and the heat generation heats the ink layer of the ink ribbon to transfer and form a printed image on the recording paper. Transcript recording method.
