Heat-sensitive stencil production device also capable of thermal dot printing on heat sensitive imaging medium

摘要

A heat-sensitive stencil production device capable of obtaining both quality stamps without excessive soaking by a stencil plate and quality print without whitened-out areas by a heat-sensitive recording sheet. A sheet distinction switch determines whether a stencil plate (120) or a heat-sensitive recording sheet (200) has been inserted (24) into the stencil production device (12). When a stencil plate is detected, a first control mode is set and the transport/head pressing motor and a thermal head are driven so that a corresponding appropriate image is formed on the heat-sensitive stencil sheet of the stencil plate in a mirror image. When a heat-sensitive recording sheet is detected, a second mode is selected and the transport/head pressing motor and the thermal head are driven so that a corresponding appropriate image is formed on the heat-sensitive recording sheet by printing dot data of the inputted image from the tail end.
