One end of the ink sheet 12 is connected to the first bobbin 12a and the other end of the ink sheet 12 is connected to the second bobbin 12b. Both ends of the ink sheet 12 are attached to the bobbins by adhesion or the like. The ink sheet 12 is wrapped around the first bobbin 12a and the first bobbin 12a is installed at the feeding housing 20. Further, the second bobbin 12b is installed at the take-up housing 21.

The printing medium 13 is loaded in the printing medium housing 22 of the upper case 10. A protective sheet 14 is provided to prevent the printing medium 13 from being dirtied or damaged. A space 33 is formed between the ink sheet 12 and the printing sheet 13 to allow the thermal print head unit to be positioned when the cartridge is loaded in the printer. An opening 34 is provided at the middle upper case 10, which is located between the feeding housing 20 and the take-up housing 21.

An opening 34 is provided in the upper middle case 10 between the feeding housing 20 and the take-up housing 21.

However, in the conventional cartridge according to the related art, the feeding unit including the recording sheet and the ink sheet before printing, and the take-up unit for taking-up the ink sheet after printing are formed in one cartridge.

Because the opening for withdrawing recording sheet is formed on one side of the cartridge, there is difficulty in reducing the overall thickness of the cartridge.

In addition, the conventional cartridge is structured such that the ink sheet housing and the printing medium housing are formed separately and are formed into a single body using separate coupling means, which complicates the manufacturing process and increases the manufacturing cost.
