2. Description of the Related Art In electrophotographic image formation,
A photoreceptor is selectively exposed to an image using a color separation machine corresponding to a predetermined reference color at the time of exposure to form a latent image on the photoreceptor, and the reference color corresponding to the latent image is formed. There is known a multicolor image forming method in which developed images obtained by developing are sequentially superimposed and transferred. For example, a so-called full-color copy can be obtained on plain paper by transferring the superposed images obtained for each of the three colors of yellow, magenta and cyan one after another. This is multicolor image formation using a so-called dye transfer type full color printer.

In such full-color copying, sublimation type thermal transfer recording is often used. This sublimation type thermal transfer recording is, for example, a thermal transfer sheet (also referred to as an ink sheet or an ink film, hereinafter referred to as an ink sheet) in which a sublimable dye layer is formed on a suitable support such as a polyethylene terephthalate film. Is prepared,
Separately, a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet having a receptor layer for receiving the dye on its surface is prepared, the surface of the ink sheet on the dye layer side is overlapped with the surface of the thermal transfer image-receiving sheet on the receptor layer side, and a thermal head or the like is provided. By the heat-sensitive means, the ink sheet is heated according to the image information, and the dye is transferred to the receiving layer of the thermal transfer image receiving sheet corresponding to the image information, and the image is thermally transferred from the ink sheet to the thermal transfer image receiving sheet. Refers to the recording method.

In such sublimation type thermal transfer recording,
Conventionally, a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet has a receiving layer composed of a resin layer in which the dye of an ink sheet can be diffused or transferred by heat on a base material such as plain paper, synthetic paper, or an appropriate synthetic resin sheet. It is manufactured by sequentially laminating a plurality of resin layers composed of a resin layer for preventing fusion between the layers and the ink sheet during heating and for providing a releasability by a wet coating method.

That is, in the conventional thermal transfer image-receiving sheet, a solution containing a resin constituting the receiving layer is applied on a substrate, dried to form a receiving layer, and then a release layer is formed thereon. A resin layer is applied and dried to form a release layer, and thus, the resin layer is separated and laminated according to its function. If necessary, between the substrate and the receiving layer,
An undercoat layer or an intermediate layer may be formed.

Accordingly, such a conventional thermal transfer image-receiving sheet has a complicated manufacturing process and a high manufacturing cost.
Therefore, a resin layer is laminated on the ink sheet in advance,
Before sequentially transferring the yellow, magenta, cyan, and black dyes to the substrate, first, the resin layer is thermally transferred onto the substrate to form a receiving layer, and then the dye is thermally transferred onto the receiving layer. A dye transfer type full-color printing method has also been proposed.

However, according to this method, it takes time to transfer the resin layer, and as a whole, it takes a long time to perform full-color printing, and it is not easy to form a uniform receiving layer on plain paper. There is also a problem that the transferred image obtained is inferior in quality. In addition, there are various technical problems in laminating the resin layer for the receiving layer on the surface of the ink sheet.

Therefore, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No.
In the publication, a coating composition prepared by dissolving a modified silicone oil in an organic solvent together with various resins including a saturated polyester resin is prepared, applied to a substrate such as synthetic paper, and dried, After forming the resin layer as the receiving layer, a heat treatment is performed at a temperature of 100 ° C. or more to cause the modified silicone oil to bleed on the surface of the receiving layer and to be cured to form a release layer. A method for producing a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet is described. According to this method, it is not necessary to form the resin layer in multiple layers for each function, but it is a wet coating method that requires solvent drying, which is disadvantageous for industrial implementation in both the production process and production cost.
