ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a thermal transfer recording apparatus capable of regulating the amount of transport of ink sheet according to the selected recording sheet, thereby maintaining uniform quality of image recording. The apparatus is provided with an ink sheet transporting mechanism, a recording sheet transporting mechanism, a thermal recording head, a selector for selecting the recording sheet, and a controller for regulating the transport amount of ink sheet according to the selected recording sheet. For a recording sheet with rougher recording surface, the transport amount of ink sheet is so regulated to increase the amount of transferred ink, thereby better covering the rougher recording surface.
