Abstract
A thermal print head includes a head circuit board, a flattened flexible member partially overlapped on the head circuit board for electrical connection thereto in a limited region which is sufficiently smaller in length than the head circuit board, and a pressure applying member for pressing the flexible member into contact with the head circuit board in the limited region. The pressure applying member is in the form of a plate spring having a presser portion which is elastically deformed for pressing the flexible member into contact with the head circuit board in the limited region by elastic restoring force of the spring.
