Abstract

Abstract A heat sensitive transfer recording medium is disclosed, which is excellent in the heat-transferability onto a large variety of paper surface and is suitable usable for repetitive printings. The recording medium comprises a subbed support and a heat fusible coloring material layer which contains at least one compound having a plurality of polar groups and/or polar bonds selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, an amino group, an imino group, a carboxyl group, an ester bond, an ether bond, an urethane bond and an amino bond.
