ABSTRACT:
A thermal transfer color recording method of and an apparatus for recording a color image on a transfer paper by successively transferring inks of different colors from an ink film to the transfer paper at a recording station. A ink of one color is transferred from the ink film to the transfer paper by a thermal head based on an image to be recorded while the ink film and the transfer paper are moved through the recording station in a forward direction in intimate contact with each other. After the transfer of the ink of one color, the transfer paper in intimate contact with the ink film is transported in the forward direction with the ink film not taken up to thereby slacken the ink film. Then, the transfer paper is transported in the reverse direction to position the leading end of the recorded area of the transfer paper at the recording station to transfer an ink of another color from the ink film to the transfer paper from the leading end of the recorded area thereof. Further, the ink film may be moved to position the ink of another color at the recording station after transport of the transfer paper to position a non-recorded area of the transfer paper at the recording station.
