ABSTRACT:
In a process of peeling off a transfer layer of an intermediate transfer film, an amount of energy, which is supplied to a thermal head3so as to heat the thermal head3, is changed in accordance with a location of the thermal head3in a peeling area71P and its neighboring area. The amount of energy is designated to be maximum energy E1when the thermal head3is positioned in the neighborhood of a boundary area of the peeling area71P while the thermal head3relatively moves from outside the peeling area71P, that is, a non-peeling area71NP to inside the peeling area71P. In a case that the thermal head3is positioned in the non-peeling area71NP or outside the peeling area71P, a certain amount of energy is supplied to the thermal head3so as to maintain a temperature T of the thermal head3at a temperature of less than a predetermined temperature PA while heating the thermal head3.
