Abstract

The image receiving sheet according to the present invention is an image receiving sheet which receives dye migrated by heat from a heat transfer sheet, wherein the image receiving sheet includes a substrate (3), a dye receiving layer (3) provided on one surface of the substrate and a curl prevention layer. The curl prevention layer includes a non-heat stretchable and shrinkable resin having a heating stretching or shrinking ratio within the range from -1.0 to 1.5% in JIS-K-6734 provided on the surface of the substrate on the side opposite to the above dye receiving layer, or between the substrate and the dye receiving layer. In the present invention, by having such a curl prevention layer as mentioned above, generation of curl by heat during image formation can be prevented to provide an image receiving sheet excellent in both conveyability of sheet and printing quality.
