ABSTRACT:
A thermal printer for forming an image on a sheet includes a thermal head having a plurality of linearly arranged thermal elements. A number of thermal elements to be driven to form a line image is determined. A time period that the thermal elements are to be driven to form the current line image is then calculated in accordance with a number of thermal elements driven to form a previous line image and the number of thermal elements determined to be driven to form the current line image. The thermal elements are then driven for the calculated time period to form the current line image.
