ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a heat transfer recording apparatus for recording an image on a recording medium by selectively applying thermal energy by a recording head, comprises: conveying means for conveying a transfer medium, a recording head for selectively applying the energy to the transfer medium, pressing means for changing a pressing force of the recording head, tension means for changing a conveying tension on the transfer medium, peeling angle changing means for changing an angle of the transfer medium peeled from the recording medium; and control means for changing the conveying tension on the transfer medium or/and the peeling angle in response to the change in the pressing force of the recording head. The present invention further provides a heat transfer recording method for recording an image on a recording medium by selectively applying thermal energy by a recording head, wherein: when a pressing force of the recording head is increased, a tension on a transfer medium at a downstream side of the transfer medium with respect to the recording head is increased, or a tension on the transfer medium at an upstream side of the transfer medium with respect to the recording head is decreased, or a peeling angle of the transfer medium peeled from the recording medium is increased.
