摘要:
The present invention provides a thermal transfer printing method, an intermediate medium and a transfer medium therefor, which make it possible to obtain printed image having deep color and high light resistance without back diffusion of dye.The method of the present invention comprises:transferring each color image by a printing head from a transfer medium A onto an intermediate medium wherein said transfer medium A has at least one color ink block consisting of color ink layers each of which contains different color ink, said intermediate medium has image receiving layers, whereby each image receiving layer on the intermediate medium contains one color image, andtransferring each color image receiving layer onto an imaging sheet from the intermediate medium, so that a same image receive portion of the imaging sheet contains the image receiving layers corresponding to one color ink block.

A transfer member includes a dyeing layer transfer member, which has a lubricating heat-resistant layer on the reverse surface of a first base material and laminated layers of a parting layer and a dyeing layer on the obverse surface, an ink transfer member, having a lubricating heat-resistant layer on the reverse surface of a second base material and the laminated layers of an adhesive layer and an ink layer, an intermediate member having a functional layer on a third base material, and an image-receptor. A thermal transfer printing method includes the steps of thermally transferring the dyeing layer onto the functional layer by setting a thermal head in contact with the lubricating heat-resistant layer of the dyeing layer transfer member, thermally transferring dye of the ink layer onto the dyeing layer that was transferred onto the functional layer in response to picture signals by setting the thermal head in contact with the lubricating heat-resistant layer of the ink transfer member, and thermally transferring the dyeing layer recorded with the dye onto the main surface of the image-receptor. Thus, pictorial images of high quality are formed on the image-receptor, and thermal transfer printing can be carried out repeatedly and stably.

摘要:
A thermal transfer recording method for recording, in which an intermediate transfer member having a recording layer formed on a polymeric layer is used in such a way that the intermediate transfer member and an ink sheet is placed one over the other, dye being thermally transferred from an ink material layer of the ink sheet to the recording layer. The intermediate transfer member and an image receiving medium are placed one over the other, and they are subjected to pressure and heat so that the recording layer is transferred from the intermediate transfer member onto the image receiving medium.
摘要:
A thermal transfer printing method, in a combination of a transfer medium including a support on which at least a dyeing layer and a dye anti-diffusion layer (and a protecting layer) are provided separately from color layers, an intermediate medium, and an image-receiving medium, comprising steps of: transferring at least the dye anti-diffusion layer and the dyeing layer (and the protecting layer) onto the intermediate medium, thereby forming a sequential laminate on the intermediate medium; printing a thermal transfer image in the dyeing layer of the laminate formed on the intermediate medium; and transferring the laminate carrying the thermal transfer image thereon from the intermediate medium onto the image-receiving medium (and fixing it simultaneously, or after transferring), thereby finally forming a print image on the image-receiving medium. A novel image-forming layer transfer medium used in the above thermal transfer printing method, has various properties in area of each layer, thermal characteristics, arrangement of respective layers etc. According to the printing method and the image-forming layer transfer medium, the print image obtained causes no contamination by dyestuff and print density is not lowered by the loss of dyestuff, bringing high-temperature stability in maintaining the transfer medium in a wound condition, and/or realizing a low-temperature transfer operation of the image-forming layer onto the image-receiving medium.
