ABSTRACT:
The image composing apparatus of the invention includes an ink medium, a halogen heater for preparatorily heating the ink medium, and a thermal head which heats the ink medium and transfers the heat sublimation ink onto the recording medium. The ink medium has an ink carrier made from a resin on which a heat sublimation ink is dispersed and which is formed on the outer perimeter of a cylindrical axle on which a heat resistant resin layer of polyimid, or similar material, is formed on the surface. The ink maintaining unit temporarily maintains the heat sublimation ink which has sublimed by a preparatory heating using from the halogen heater established inside the axle to move from the ink carrier to the surface layer.
