Abstract
An image transfer type thermosensitive recording medium comprising a substrate and a double-layered thermal transfer ink layer formed thereon, which comprisees (i) a first layer formed on the substrate, comprising a thermofusible material and an oil component, which first layer melts to become a liquid having a low viscosity when heated to a predetermined temperature, the oil component comprising as the main components hydrocarbon of methane series and cycloparaffin, and having a viscosity of 100 cst or less at 40.degree. C. and a viscosity of 20 cst or less at 100.degree. C., and (ii) a second layer formed on the first layer, comprising a thermosoftening resin and a coloring agent, which second layer becomes soft, without being melted at the predetermined temperature or higher.
