Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/259879
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention relates to a printer that performs printing on a printing medium having a thermal coloring layer. This printer is provided with: a thermal head having a plurality of heat generation elements arrayed in a line shape; a pulse setting unit that sets a first application period of an energization pulse for applying thermal energy to develop a color of a thermal coloring layer to the plurality of heat generation elements in a one-line printing cycle; a first correction unit that corrects a printing speed for printing so as to be decelerated from a previously-set printing speed before performing printing on a printing medium; and a second correction unit that corrects a printing speed after the correction by the first correction unit and/or the length of the first application period so that a difference in the ratio of the first application period of the energization pulse to the printing cycle becomes a predetermined value or less before and after correction of the printing speed by the first correction unit.
