ABSTRACT:
A thermal head is pressed against a platen consisting of rubber through a recording paper or a heat sensitive paper. The thermal head is provided a head base, a glaze layer portion mounted on the head base, and a heating resistor portion provided on the glaze layer portion. An unit area surface pressure applied from the glaze layer portion of the thermal head to the recording paper or the heat sensitive paper is set to not less than 0.3 kg/mm.sup.2. A hardness of the rubber of the platen is adapted to about Hs 40.degree.-Hs 100.degree.. The high areas of the surface of the recording paper or the heat sensitive paper are flattened to increase the smoothness of the surface of the recording paper or the heat sensitive paper. A high quality printed product of the thermal transfer printer or the thermal printer can be obtained even when the relatively rough recording paper or the heat sensitive paper is used as the object paper.
