Embodiment 1

[0037] An embodiment of the present invention provides a thermal transfer printer, see figure 1 , the thermal transfer printer includes:

[0038] The consumable material supply device 105 is used to install a specific composite consumable material 106, which is prepared by attaching the ink surface of the thermal transfer ribbon 106A to the surface of the printing roll paper 106B and winding the same shaft. In this way, when the user installs the composite consumables 106, the thermal transfer ribbon 106A and the printing roll paper 106B can be added to the printer at the same time, instead of installing them separately, which reduces the complexity of installing the printer consumables and brings better user experience to the user. . At the same time, the thermal transfer printer only needs to set up one consumable supply device 105, which can satisfy the installation of the thermal transfer ribbon 106A and the printing roll paper 106B, instead of setting up two different co...

Embodiment 2

[0057] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for supplying thermal transfer consumables, which is applicable to the thermal transfer printer described in Embodiment 1, see Figure 4 , the method can include:

[0058] Step S21 , installing specific composite consumables to the consumable supply device of the thermal transfer printer. The composite consumables are prepared by bonding the ink surface of the thermal transfer ribbon to the surface of the printing roll paper and winding the same shaft.

[0059] In this embodiment, a specific composite consumable is installed on the consumable supply device, and the composite consumable is prepared by attaching the ink surface of the thermal transfer ribbon to the surface of the printing roll paper and winding the same shaft, so that when the user installs the composite consumable Thermal transfer ribbon and printing roll paper can be added to the printer at the same time, instead of installing them separately, whi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a thermal transfer printing type printer and a method for supplying consumable materials for thermal transfer printing. The thermal transfer printing type printer comprises a consumable material supply device, a thermal printer head, a printing rubber-covered roller, a roller driving motor, and a printing control device. A specific composite consumable material is provided for the consumable material supply device, wherein the composite consumable material is prepared by bonding an ink surface of a thermal transfer printing ribbon and a piece of printing roll paper surface and winding the bonded unit around a same rotating shaft; and thus unlike the existing thermal transfer printing type printer with two different consumable material supply devices, the thermal transfer printing type printer disclosed by the invention uses one consumable material supply device to provide the thermal transfer printing ribbon and the printing roll paper simultaneously, so that the internal space of the thermal transfer printing type printer can be saved effectively and thus the size of the thermal transfer printing type printer can be reduced substantially to realize high portability for the user. Meanwhile, the structure of the thermal transfer printing type printer is simplified; the preparation cost is lowered; the installation steps are reduced; and the user experience is enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermal transfer printers, in particular to a thermal transfer printer and a thermal transfer consumable supply method thereof. Background technique [0002] Thermal transfer printers using thermal print heads are widely used in barcode / radio frequency identification (RFID) Label printing, security logo printing and other fields have become mainstream printing equipment. [0003] The printing consumables used in traditional thermal transfer printers include: thermal transfer ribbon and printing media (which can be plain paper or polymer paper). At the hot spot, the ink coating on the thermal transfer ribbon will be melted by the heat of the print head and transferred to the print medium under the pressure of the print head to show what needs to be printed. [0004] In the prior art, thermal transfer printers have independent thermal transfer ribbons and printing medium supply devices. Normally, the the...
