Summary:A carrier paper has a coating applied thereon, which serves to take up ink which is then applied using a thermal sublimation printing process to a textile or a coated hard substrate. The textile, the hard substrate coating, or both are made from a polyester-containing plastic. The coating on the carrier paper comprises a semisynthetic polymer and the coated carrier paper is placed in direct contact with the textile or with the coated hard substrate during sublimation transfer. In the case of such a carrier paper, it is intended according to some aspects of the present invention that the semisynthetic polymer has thermoplastic properties. In the case of such a carrier paper, ghosting can be permanently avoided without adversely affecting primary parameters, such as printability, drying and transfer property of the carrier paper.
