ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a photo printer with an adjustable thermal print head. The printer includes a cantilever mechanism that raises or lowers a thermal print head for either removing a photo or printing the photo. The force exerted on the thermal print head is adjusted by an adjusting mechanism which uses an elastic mechanism with an adjusting screw and a spring. A platen roller feeds the photo through the device. The contacting stress between the thermal print heads and the platen roller is individually adjusted so that pressure can be maintained evenly at all times.
