An image forming method comprises a step of reacting an ink containing a coloring material with a liquid composition containing fine particles reactive to the coloring material on a recording medium, where the reaction between the coloring material and the fine particles occurs in a liquid, the coloring material is adsorbed on the surfaces of the fine particles while keeping the monomolecular state as in the ink, and the fine particles having the coloring material on the surface aggregate each other. This method can provide images of high optical density and high color saturation, with less occurrence of white stripes in the image.

This invention relates to an ink set which can form a colored area on a recording medium with a broad color reproduction range, excellent uniformity of the colors, with effective prevention of bleeding at the boundary between adjacent different color areas on a recording medium, and high rub-off resistance of the colored area. The ink set has separately an aqueous anionic or cationic ink containing a coloring material, and a liquid composition containing fine particles dispersed therein and electrically charged at the surface in a polarity opposite to the ink. The ink and the liquid composition are adjusted to give, when mixed at a mixing weight ratio of about 1:1, a pH of the liquid mixture to cause aggregation of at least the coloring material.

This invention relates to a liquid composition adapted to be applied to a recording medium with ink containing a multi-color to form a colored section on the recording medium. The liquid composition contains fine particles reactive relative to the solvent and the coloring material in ink. When processed in particular steps, it produces aggregates of fine particles showing a specific surface area between 70 and 250 m2/g as determined by the BET nitrogen adsorption/desorption method.

An ink jet recording method effects recording on a recording material by ejecting ink comprising coloring material and reaction liquid reactable with the ink from an ink ejection portion for ejecting the ink and a reaction liquid ejection portion for ejecting the reaction liquid. The method includes a recording step of effecting the recording selectively in a first recording mode in which no margin is provided at least one end portion of the recording material and a second recording mode in which margins are provided at all of the end portions of the recording material. A recording condition in the first recording mode and a recording condition in the second recording mode are different.
