Abstract
Dual-sided direct thermal printing of a thermal imaging element having thermally sensitive coatings on opposite sides of a substrate is described, where the thermal imaging element is provided along a feed path of a thermal printer having print heads disposed on opposite sides of the feed path. Printing on both sides of the thermal imaging element is achieved by applying variable energy heat pulses from the opposed print heads.
