[Problem] The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a resin composition for baked pastes; and a baked paste which achieves a good balance between viscosity increase and pseudoplasticity, and which is adapted to various printing methods. [Solution] A resin for baked pastes, which is characterized by being obtained by blending an acidic group-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (A) and a nitrogen-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (B) so that the molar ratio of the acidic group-containing monomer to the nitrogen-containing monomer is from 5:95 to 85:15. The acidic group-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (A) is a copolymer of a monomer component containing an alkyl (meth)acrylate ester and an acidic group-containing monomer that contains a group selected from among a carboxyl group and a sulfonic acid group, and the acidic group-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (A) has a weight average molecular weight of from 10,000 to 500,000 and a glass transition temperature of 30°C or more. The nitrogen-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (B) is a copolymer of a monomer component containing a nitrogen-containing monomer and an alkyl (meth)acrylate ester, and the nitrogen-containing (meth)acrylic polymer (B) has a weight average molecular weight of from 10,000 to 500,000 and a glass transition temperature of 30°C or more.
