Abstract

A thermal printer (1) according to an embodiment includes a communication interface (105) that receives print data from an external device. A thermal print head (111) thermally prints on a sheet, line by line according to the received print data. A motor (107) drives a roller (109) to transport the sheet, line by line according to the received print data. A processor (101) determines, for a current print line, a target transport speed for transporting the sheet, and retrieves one or more intermediate speeds that are defined in advance and are between a current transport speed of transporting the sheet and the target transport speed. The processor (101) controls the motor (107) to transport the sheet at each determined intermediate speed and the target transport speed, sequentially. The thermal print head (111) is heated in accordance with predetermined heating control information corresponding to the determined intermediate speed closest to the current speed.
