摘要:
Provided is an ink-jet recording process for forming a color image on a recording medium using a liquid formulation and a color ink in combination, wherein the liquid formulation contains a cationic polymer having a weight-average molecular weight in the range of from 400 to 1,400, and the liquid formulation and the ink are each ejected from a recording head having an ink ejection volume per dot of from 2 to 25 picolitters.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is an ink comprising a coloring material and a liquid medium dissolving the coloring material therein, wherein the ink comprises a dye having at least one ammonium ion as a counter ion and an ammonium salt of an inorganic or organic acid.
摘要:
The invention provides an ink comprising a coloring material, a solvent for dissolving or dispersing the coloring material, and an amphoteric polymer having both anionic and cationic groups. The invention also provides an ink-jet recording process and apparatus using such an ink.
摘要:
Provided is a black ink capable of mitigating the dependency on image quality of recording media and giving a high quality image stably, which comprises at least one salt selected from the group consisting of (M1)2SO4, CH3COO(M1), Ph_COO(M1), (M1)NO3, (M1)Cl, (M1)Br, (M1)I, (M1)2SO3 and (M1)2CO3, where M1 is an alkali metal, ammonium or organo-ammonium and Ph is a phenyl group, and a self dispersible carbon black.

Disclosed herein is an ink comprising a dye having at least one anionic group, an amino acid type polyamine or a polyethyleneimine containing at least 7 nitrogen atoms in its molecule, and water, wherein the dye is either a metallized azo dye or a nonmetallized azo dye satisfying the following conditions (x) and (y) at the same time:(x) no anionic group is situated at an ortho position to the azo bond, and at least one anionic group exists at another position than the ortho position to the azo bond; and(y) at least one aromatic residue is bonded to the azo bond, and the aromatic ring of the aromatic residue is a benzene or naphthalene ring, with the proviso that the aromatic rings situated on both sides of the azo bond are not naphthalene rings at the same time if present.
摘要:
Ink tank which enables accurate detection of existence/absence of liquid even if a storage containing liquid such as ink is stored under a severe environment, and a cartridge including the ink tank, as well as a printing apparatus utilizing the cartridge. A low surface energy processing agent including alkyl polysiloxane and alcohol is coated on prism 180 provided on the bottom portion of ink tank 7, thereby performing low surface energy processing on the prism 180.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a water-based pigment ink comprising a coloring material composed of self-dispersing carbon black obtained by bonding at least one hydrophilic group directly or through another atomic group to the surface of carbon black, a humectant of the general formulaH--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --C--((CH.sub.2).sub.n OH).sub.3wherein m and n are independently an integer of from 1 to 5, and an aqueous medium composed of water and a water-soluble organic solvent.
摘要:
Three discharge port groups, each having a plurality of discharge ports, discharge inks of three primary colors to record swaths of the respective colors on a recording medium and repeat the discharging to complete a record. Joints of each of Y, M and C color swaths are spaced from joints of swaths of the other two colors by an equal distance, and the discharge port groups are offset from each other by 8n times of a discharge port pitch in a direction of feed of the recording medium. In a number of image buffers corresponding to the discharge ports, image data in one buffer is separated from image data in a different image buffer by an amount that is an integer multiply of one 8 bit byte.
摘要:
An ink jet cartridge has a recording head portion and an ink containing portion which are detachably mountable relative to each other. The recording head portion ejects ink to effect recording with the ink. The cartridge includes a first ink container, provided in the recording head portion, for containing the ink; a second ink container, provided in the ink containing portion, for containing the ink; and an ink communication tube for establishing ink communication between the first ink container and the second ink container, wherein the ink communication tube is not externally exposed. An ink jet recording apparatus includes a recording head for ejecting ink, an ink container detachably mountable to the recording head for containing the ink to be supplied to the recording head, a detecting device for detecting mounting of the ink container to the ink jet recording apparatus and a control device for controlling a recording operation of the ink jet recording apparatus in accordance with an output of the detecting device.
