ABSTRACT:
A recording unit is mounted on a thermal transfer printer in which heating elements of a thermal head are heated to thermally transfer ink a recording material. The recording unit includes a head unit having the thermal head; and a cooling unit having a cooling medium flow path for circulating a cooling medium to cool the thermal head. The cooling unit is configured to cause the head unit to be held at an immovable state relative to the cooling medium flow path so as to surround the cooling medium flow path by the pressure contact of the cooling medium flow path by means of a pressure contact and release mechanism. Separation of the head unit from the cooling unit body is allowed by the release of the pressure contact and release mechanism.
