望の記録像を形成する。In this example, the sublimable ink color developing material (3) was applied to every two areas of the heat sublimable ink material (2), but it may be applied alternately or every multiple areas. Next, in the recording method using the above thermal transfer sheet, first, the entire area of the sublimable ink developer (3) or the portion corresponding to a predetermined pixel position is transferred to a recording medium such as plain paper or metal. After forming a layer on the recording medium that develops color using heat-sublimable ink material (2) by thermal transfer, the entire area of heat-sublimable ink material (2) or a portion corresponding to a predetermined pixel position is transferred to the above layer. A desired recorded image is formed by thermal transfer.
