Abstract: An ink composition is prepared in such a manner that a difference between a dynamic surface tension (mN/m) measured by a maximum bubble pressure method at a temperature of 24 to 26° C. and a static surface tension (mN/m) is within a range from 0 to 7 (mN/m). The ink composition is stored in an ink tank of an ink head, and is supplied from the ink tank to an ink chamber having a discharge port, and a voltage is applied to partitions formed by a piezoelectric material to apply a pressure by the partitions to the ink composition stored in the ink chamber, whereby a liquid droplet of the ink composition is discharged from the discharge port and the liquid droplet is deposited on a recording material to record an image.

Abstract: An ink composition is prepared by incorporating water, a colorant and a polyester resin in which a polybasic carboxylic acid ingredient contains an aromatic dicarboxylic acid having a metal sulfonate group. The ink composition is stored in an ink tank of an ink head, the ink composition is supplied from the ink tank into an ink chamber having a discharge port, a voltage is applied to partition wall portions formed of a piezoelectric material, a pressure is applied to the ink composition contained in the ink chamber by the partition wall portions and liquid droplets of the ink composition are discharged from the discharge port and deposited on a recording material thereby recording images.
