摘要:
A method of recording a multi-color image containing a plurality of image regions formed by applying an black ink and a color ink to overlap each other in different orders, where the black ink contains a salt, an aqueous medium and a pigment dispersed in the aqueous medium by the action of an ionic group, and the color ink contains a dye. Otherwise, the black ink contains a salt, an aqueous medium and a pigment dispersed in the aqueous medium by the action of an ionic group, and the color ink is reactive with the black ink. This method enables to obtain high quality images free from density unevenness or excellent in uniform feeling.

摘要:
A recording unit and an image recording apparatus are of a configuration in which the black image and character formed by the black ink in the presence of the color ink satisfy various properties such as a high optical density, high image quality and high image fastness, and which also enables prevention of bleeding and white haze and saving of ink consumption. There is provided an ink jet head employing an ink set including black ink and color inks, in which the black ink contains a salt, an aqueous medium and a coloring material dispersed in the aqueous medium by the function of an ionic radical, and at least one of the color inks contains a polyvalent metal salt capable, when mixed with the black ink, of impairing the dispersion stability of the coloring material in the black ink. The ink jet head has a configuration, in a portion for discharging the polyvalent metal salt containing ink used as the color ink, utilizing a discharge method in which the bubble generated in the ink in the ink flow path is opened through to the discharge port at the ink discharge.

The ink jet recording head 1 of the invention is provided with a black ink nozzle array Bk1 for black ink constituting first ink, and plural color ink nozzle arrays C1 to C3 for discharging color inks. In a color ink nozzle array C1 having the shortest print distance from the black print formed by the black ink nozzle array Bk1, there is introduced a color ink showing the highest mutual reactivity with the black ink, and a color ink showing the next highest mutual reactivity is introduced into a nozzle array C2 having the next shortest print distance, and a color ink showing the lowest mutual reactivity is introduced into a nozzle array C3 having the longest print distance.
摘要:
A reactive color ink that contains a metal ion and exhibits mutual reactivity with a blank ink is applied in an area including a print area, which has been formed by applying the blank ink on a recording medium, and an area surrounding the print area, a distance between an edge of the print area and an outer edge of the surrounding area being up to four pixels. This ink application is performed so that a value at least equal to 0.01 is obtained from a calculation where a metal ion concentration % by weight in the reactive color ink applied in the area including the print area and the surrounding area is multiplied by a print duty % of the reactive color ink applied in the area including the print area and the surrounding area.
