Problems solved by technology

[0024] However, even when using this method, it is difficult to print quality photographs with high gloss surfaces at practical rates in variable printing
Among many commercial printing papers, cast-coated papers are too poor in ink absorbency, and when images are printed at high speeds, the image bleeds, causing image degradation that cannot be ignored in reproducing high-quality photographic images, making the use of cast-coated papers impractical

preparation example Construction

[0173] [Preparation of ink]

[0174] The ink of the present invention contains at least water, a colorant, a water-soluble organic solvent, a wetting agent, and a surfactant, and further contains other components as necessary. These components are dispersed or dissolved in an aqueous solvent, and further stirred and mixed as necessary to prepare the ink of the present invention. The dispersion can be performed using a sand mill, a homogenizer, a ball mill, a paint shaker, or an ultrasonic disperser, and stirring and mixing can be performed by using a stirrer using a typical blade, a magnetic stirrer, or a high-speed disperser.

[0175] Physical properties of the ink such as viscosity, surface tension and pH are preferably within the following ranges.

[0176] The viscosity of the ink at 25°C is preferably 1 cps-30 cps, more preferably 2 cps-20 cps. When the viscosity is higher than 20 cps, it is difficult to ensure discharge stability.

[0177] The pH is preferably, for exa...

Abstract

A printing medium including at least base paper and a coating layer, wherein the coating layer is directly formed on the base paper by a cast coating method using a coating liquid, which contains kaolin and amorphous silica and contains the amorphous silica in an amount of 3% by mass to 20% by mass.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a recording medium which can achieve high-quality images and high-quality tones as excellent as silver halide photographs at low cost by an inkjet method, and which can be further used in offset printing and electrophotography; ink medium sets; and inkjet media using these an ink recording method; and an ink recorded matter. Background technique [0002] Inkjet (IJ) recording technology has encountered the development of common technology, thereby realizing high-quality images that can be superior to current silver halide photographs, and forming IJ printing technology, said common technology includes various peripheral technologies; for example, hardware such as inkjet Ink heads and press systems; supplies such as ink media; and control methods for controlling image processing and other systems. As disclosed especially in Patent Documents (PTL) 1 and 2, the IJ printing technology using water-based ink and porous media...
