Publication number: 20180304615Abstract: An image recording method includes a reaction liquid applying step; a first liquid composition applying step; an ink applying step of applying an ink containing a second water-soluble resin so as to at least partly overlap with an area where the first liquid composition is applied on an intermediate transfer member to form an intermediate image; and a step of transferring the intermediate image to a recording medium by bringing the intermediate image into contact with the recording medium to separate the intermediate image from the intermediate transfer member. The temperatures Tc, T1 of the intermediate image and intermediate transfer member from start of the contact to the separation are adjusted to be not less than the glass transition temperature Tgs of the second water-soluble resin. The temperatures Tr, T2 of the intermediate image and recording medium at the separation are adjusted to be less than Tgs.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2018Publication date: October 25, 2018Inventors: Kanako Soma, Ryohei Goto, Toru Ohnishi

Publication number: 20180304616Abstract: Reaction liquid application S1 to an ink receiving medium, formation of a first image by ink application S2, liquid absorption S3 from the first image by a porous body of a liquid absorbing member, cleaning S4 of the porous body, and liquid collection S5 from the porous body are repeated in an inkjet printing method. When the porous body comes into contact with the first image, first chemical species in the reaction liquid contributing to increasing the ink viscosity is contained, on the ink receiving medium and in the porous body, at a higher level in terms of molar equivalent per unit area than second chemical species in the ink also contributing to increasing the ink viscosity. In the liquid collection S5, the liquid is collected so that the liquid remains in the porous body on the side to be brought into contact with the first image.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2018Publication date: October 25, 2018Inventors: Yoshiyuki Honda, Atsushi Sakamoto, Satoshi Masuda, Toru Yamane, Kyosuke Deguchi, Ryosuke Hirokawa, Toru Ohnishi, Akihiro Mouri, Noboru Toyama
