摘要:
An ink jet recording apparatus which includes a recording head, and forms an image by ejecting printing liquid including a volatile organic compound (VOC) from the recording head onto a recording medium, wherein the ink jet recording apparatus includes a volatile organic compound decomposer for decomposing the volatile organic compound.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for treating liquids used in inkjet recording comprising, providing a first printing liquid and a second printing liquid that is capable of reacting with the first printing liquid to cause coagulation and thickening if mixed with the first printing liquid, and exposing the first and second printing liquids to each other to form a mixture, wherein when the mixture includes a coagulation-thickening preventing agent which prevents the reaction of the printing liquids.

摘要:
The present invention provides an ink jet recording apparatus which has a recording head having at least one nozzle which ejects liquid droplets of ink to record an image on a recording medium. The ink jet recording apparatus includes a mist collecting device for collecting a mist that does not impact against the recording medium and a catalytic decomposing device for decomposing organic components in the mist by means of a catalyst. The catalyst is preferably a photo semiconductor catalyst. Further, the apparatus preferably has an air suction device and/or a collector for collecting the mist. The catalytic decomposing device also preferably has a light irradiation device.

A recording apparatus including: an intermediate transfer member; an image forming composition layer formation unit that supplies an image forming composition to the intermediate transfer member, the image forming composition containing a curable material that cures upon application of an external stimulus; an ink application unit that applies an ink to the image forming composition layer that has been formed on the intermediate transfer member; a transfer unit that transfers the image forming composition layer from the intermediate transfer member to a recording medium by contacting the image forming composition layer onto which the ink has been applied with the recording medium; and a first stimulus application unit that applies a stimulus to the image forming composition layer that cures the image forming composition layer, the stimulus being applied at least one of immediately before the image forming composition layer comes into contact with the recording medium, or during the contact.
摘要:
Ink jet recording method and apparatus is provided in which a color image is recorded by discharging, onto a recording medium, a black ink and at least one of a cyan ink, a magenta ink and a yellow ink from a black-ink recording head that ejects the black ink onto the recording medium, and a color-ink recording head that ejects the at least one of a cyan ink, a magenta ink and a yellow ink onto the recording medium, wherein the black ink contains carbon black, water, a water-soluble organic solvent, and a water-soluble polymer having an anionic functional group, and has a drying time of 5 seconds or more on the recording medium, and at least one type of the color ink contains a color material, water, a water-soluble organic solvent, and a coagulating agent, and has a drying time of 5 seconds or less on the recording medium.
摘要:
The present invention is an ink set for ink-jet recording using at least two kinds of inks comprising a first ink containing at least a pigment, a water-soluble solvent and water, and a second ink containing at least a pigment, a coagulant, a water-soluble solvent and water and having the absolute value of ζ-potential of not less than 10 mV. The present invention also provides an ink-jet recording method using the ink set for ink-jet recording, wherein an image is formed by applying the first ink and second ink on a recording medium so as to contact to each other. The present invention further provides an ink-jet recording apparatus comprising a recording head for ejecting at least the first ink and second ink.
