Abstract
A thermal printer has a thermal head for image recording to a thermosensitive recording sheet while applying pressure to the recording sheet. A plate-shaped platen supports the recording sheet during the pressure application of the thermal head to the recording sheet. The platen includes first, second and third plates serially laid on one another and secured to one another. The first plate is rigid. The second plate is resilient. The third plate has higher rigidity than the second plate, and has a smooth surface contacting the recording sheet.
