The invention discloses the production method of a metal high temperature transfer printing base paper, including to use 50-70% blanching needle wood-pulp and 30-50% blanching broad-leaf wood-pulp to be the raw material, which is pulped by a pulper, then is added by beating with chemical auxiliary materials: 1-4% a wet strength agent, 1-3% a high temperature resistance agent, 1- 4% starch, 2-4% aluminum sulfate, 1.0-2.5% a rosin milk, 0.1-1.5% a remover, and 0.03 -0.1% a retention agent to make into a slurry; after making, the slurry is rewound to be the base paper when passing through a rewinder. The transfer printing base paper produced by the method has the advantages of extremely good high temperature resistance, being able to satisfy the request of the metal high temperature transfer printing, fine superficial smoothness, and full patterns, bright color and good transfer printing effect after printed. The intensity of the paper is very high, which can satisfy the need of the transfer printing, and the paper is crispness, is not coking and has good stripping paper effect after transfer printed on metal; the waste paper can be recycled to be used as secondary fiber, which saves resources and protects environment.
