A print assembly is described, wherein the print assembly includes a dye-donor element having a dye-donor layer, wherein the dye-donor element includes a donor stick preventative agent; and a receiver having a dye image-receiving layer, wherein the receiver includes a receiver stick preventative agent of the formula: ##STR00001## wherein R.sub.1 is an alkyl chain of C.sub.9H.sub.19 or greater; R.sub.2 is an alkyl chain of C.sub.3H.sub.6 or greater; A is NH--R.sub.3, NHNH.sub.2, NHCO--R.sub.3, NH--R.sub.4--NH.sub.2, or NHCO--R.sub.4--NH.sub.2; R.sub.3 is alkyl chain of C.sub.2H.sub.5 or greater; R.sub.4 is an alkyl chain of C.sub.2H.sub.4 or greater; m is from about 0 to 95 weight percent; n is from about 0 to about 70 weight percent; p is from 0 to about 40 weight percent; and q is from 0 to 95 weight percent, with the proviso that when m is 0, then n is 0, and R.sub.3 is an alkyl chain of C.sub.8H.sub.17 or greater, otherwise when m is greater than 0, n is from 0.1 to 70 weight percent, based on the total weight of the receiver stick preventative agent, and wherein the dye-donor element and receiver are in superposed position such that the dye-donor layer is adjacent the dye image-receiving layer. The use of stick preventative agents in both the dye-donor element and the receiver element can enable high speed printing without donor-receiver sticking.
