Embodiment 1～3

[0036] The printing described in Examples 1 to 3 was performed using an inkjet printer manufactured by Mimaki Engineering Co., Ltd. as the inkjet printer 10 . The model of the inkjet printer used in Examples 1 and 2 is JV33. In addition, the model of the inkjet printer used in Example 3 is JV5. Here, instead of the microwave generator provided on the main body of the inkjet printer 10 , a household microwave oven is used as the microwave irradiation unit 18 .

[0037] In addition, in Examples 1 to 3, solvent inks manufactured by Mimaki Engineering Co., Ltd. were used, respectively. The models of the solvent inks used in each example are ES3 (Example 1), SS21 (Example 2), and HS (Example 3). White polyethylene glossy paper with release paper was used as the medium 50 .

[0038] In each of the above configurations, the printing described in Embodiments 1 to 3 was performed. In this printing process, after the solvent ink was ejected by the inkjet printer 10 at a printing densi...

Abstract

The invention provides a inkjet printer and a printing method. It is object to suitably fix solvent ink to a medium in case of printing in an inkjet method with the solvent ink. An inkjet printer 10 using solvent ink containing an organic solvent and a colorant comprises an inkjet head 12 which ejects the solvent ink to a medium 50 and a microwave irradiation unit 18 which irradiates the medium 50, to which the solvent ink was ejected, with microwaves.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an inkjet printer and a printing method. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known an inkjet printer that performs printing using solvent ink (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Inkjet printers that use solvent ink, for example by heating the medium after ejecting the ink to fix the ink. [0003] In addition, conventionally, a heater that is heated by a heating element is used as a heating medium. For example, the inkjet printer disclosed in Patent Document 1 uses a conductive layer provided on a platen as a heating element, generates heat in the conductive layer by generating eddy currents in the conductive layer, and heats the medium. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-160546 [0005] In recent years, media of various raw materials are used as media for inkjet printers. Therefore, for example, when the medium is heated by a heater as in the conventional method, the med...
