Abstract

The present invention relates to an ink ribbon for sublimation transfer type hard copy which is used to produce as a hard copy a still picture image such as a picture image taken by a video camera, a television picture image and so on. The ink ribbon for sublimation transfer type hard copy of this invention comprises a heat-resistant plastic film base or a plastic film base having formed thereon a heat-resistant treating layer and coating layer of sublimation dye formed on the plastic film base.
