摘要:
This invention provides an ink for ink jet recording, characterized by comprising a colorant comprising at least a compound represented by general formula (I) or its salt: and a compound represented by general formula (II): This ink can provide image quality comparable with the image quality of silver salt photographs and can realize high lightfastness in records.
摘要:
Disclosed is an ink tank containing an ink which enables to prolong the lifetime of an ink jet recorder and to attain excellent image characteristics such as excellent image durability. An ink tank where a section for containing an aqueous ink has a micro passage for holding the aqueous ink through capillarity is characterized in that the aqueous ink contains at least water and a water soluble coloring material and further contains a compound satisfying specific requirements.
摘要:
This invention provides an ink for ink jet recording that, even when an ink for ink jet recording containing a colorant having a buffer region in an ink working range is used to perform continuous printing for a long period of time, can suppress a deterioration (dissolution) on a liquid contact face in a heat generating part and can suppress the occurrence of disconnection in wiring for applying voltage to the heat generating part. The ink for ink jet recording is used in an ink jet recording apparatus provided with a recording head having a metal and/or metal oxide-containing heat generating part liquid contact face and has a colorant content (% by mass) of not less than 3% by mass based on the total mass of the ink for ink jet recording. The colorant has a buffer region in an ink working range. The ink further contains a compound represented by general formula (I) and/or a compound represented by general formula (II).
