Abstract

A thermal transfer recording medium having an improved hot-sticking resistance which comprises a thermoplastic resin film as a substrate, a thermally transferable ink layer provided on one surface of the film, and a thin layer of an inorganic substance provided on the other surface of the film. The thin layer of the inorganic substance prevents the recording medium from hot-sticking phenomenon, whereby a high speed printing is made possible.
