To provide a heat-sensitive stencil printing equipment, in which the miniaturization of a thermal head itself is possible, the power loss by a common electrode becomes smaller than ever, printing wrinkles do not develop even in printing a coated paper or the like and optimum printing image quality is obtained.

A heating element 300 of the thermal head per one dot of pixels is divided into a plurality of heating elements 300 connected in series and then arranged by shifting them both in a main scanning direction and in a sub-scanning direction by a predetermined distance (or a shifting amount). By setting the feed pitch in sub-scanning direction of the heat-sensitive stencil base paper to nearly two times as much as the shifting amount at the boring with the thermal head, a zigzag grid-like pattern is formed. Then, a feeble portion in the main scanning direction becomes smaller, resulting in becoming stronger for the bending in the sub-scanning direction.
