ABSTRACT:
A scanning thermal dye printer has a plurality of linear scanning arrays positioned to sequentially scan selective color information from a source image and produce a color plane using the selective color information, and a plurality of thermal dye transfer stations, each thermal dye transfer station being responsive to information from a selected one of the linear scanning arrays. The printer includes means for advancing the source image between successive linear scanning arrays, and means for advancing a dye receiving member between successive dye transfer stations. There is at least one roller having a circumference and being disposed between adjacent dye transfer stations in guiding contact with the dye receiving member, and means for changing the position of the roller and adjusting the position of one color plane relative to another color plane.
