Abstract
A heat-sensitive transcription printer system is made up of a heat-sensitive transcription ink sheet cassette and a heat-sensitive transcription printing device on which said heat-sensitive transcription ink sheet cassette is loaded. On the heat-sensitive transcription ink sheet cassette is bonded an IC label having an IC memory a power receiving/supplying coil and a diode connected to the IC memory and a signal communication coil for performing communication of signals between the IC memory and the heat-sensitive transcription printing device. The inherent discrimination information is previously recorded on the heat-sensitive transcription ink sheet cassette and can be read out from it electrically. In this heat-sensitive transcription printing device the driving power is supplied from a power supply unit through a power supply coil power receiving/supplying coil and the diode to the IC memory A system controller reads out the discrimination information and the using hysteresis information from the IC memory through the signal communication coils to control the printing operation.
