The thermal image transfer recording medium has a support 22, an intermediate layer 33 and an ink layer 44. The intermediate layer contains a thermofusible material, such as microcrystalline wax, mixed with a polymer resin, for example a polyester resin, and forms the top layer 33 of the ink image 7 when it has been transferred to the image receiving member 1. The ink image has optimum resistance to damage by rubbing or scratching when the dynamic friction coeficient is in the range 0.120 - 0.165. |
