Abstract:
A control section is included which performs a background image pre-printing which enables each ink to be ejected from the upstream side background color nozzle row and the downstream side color nozzle row and can land the color ink after landing the background color ink on the medium in a region concerning the transport direction, and a background image post-printing which enables each ink to be ejected from the upstream side color nozzle row and the downstream side background color nozzle row and can land the background color ink after landing the color ink on the medium in a region concerning the transport direction, the control section performing the printing so as to switch over the background image pre-printing and the background image post-printing on one medium.
Abstract:
A liquid container detachably mounted on a liquid consuming apparatus includes: a liquid including dispersed particles and a solvent in which the dispersed particles are dispersed; and an accommodation bag accommodating the liquid and provided with a discharge portion discharging the liquid, in which a ratio of a volume of the liquid with respect to a capacity of the accommodation bag when the accommodation bag is used from an initial period of filling is 95% or less.
Abstract:
Provided is an ink set of radiation-curable ink jet compositions each including a polymerizable compound component. The ink set includes a color ink and a clear ink as the radiation-curable ink jet compositions. The polymerizable compound component contained in the clear ink includes a monomer A having a volume of 260 angstrom3 or more and an area of 25 angstrom2 or more in the height direction with respect to a long side defined by a van-der-Waals radius, and the content of the monomer A contained in the clear ink is 80 mass % or more based on the total amount of the polymerizable compound component.
Abstract:
An ink jet recording method is provided for a low or non-absorbable recording medium using a solution containing a colored ink, a clear ink, and an aggregating agent for aggregating constituents in the colored ink. The method includes: causing the solution containing the aggregating agent to adhere to the recording medium; and a main scanning in which the colored and the clear inks are ejected while relative positions of an ink jet head and the recording medium are changed to a main scanning direction, and a sub-scanning in which the relative positions of the ink jet head and the recording medium are changed to a sub-scanning direction. The main scanning involves a region where a recording region in which the colored ink is ejected in the main scanning and a recording region in which the clear ink is ejected in the main scanning overlap one another.
Abstract:
An ink jet recording method includes: a reaction liquid application step of ejecting from an ink jet head, a reaction liquid containing an aggregating agent which aggregates an ink composition so as to adhere the reaction liquid to a recording medium which is a non-absorptive recording medium or a low-absorptive recording medium; a reaction liquid drying step of drying the reaction liquid adhered to the recording medium; and an ink composition application step of ejecting the ink composition from the ink jet head so as to apply the ink composition to the recording medium to which the reaction liquid is adhered. When the ink composition is to be adhered, the reaction liquid is dried so that an evaporated amount of water and an organic solvent contained in the reaction liquid are 70 percent by mass or more and 60 percent by mass or less, respectively.
