INK JET RECORDING METHOD AND INK JET RECORDING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240174881 titled 'INK JET RECORDING METHOD AND INK JET RECORDING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The ink jet recording method described in the abstract involves recording an image on a low-absorbent or non-absorbent recording medium using an aqueous ink and an aqueous reaction liquid containing a reactant that reacts with the ink. This is achieved by applying the ink and the reaction liquid to the recording medium in a one-pass system, with the ink and reaction liquid being ejected from separate ejection heads so that they partially overlap on the recording medium.

  • The method involves recording an image on a low-absorbent or non-absorbent recording medium using aqueous ink and reaction liquid.
  • The ink and reaction liquid are applied to the recording medium in a one-pass system, with the ink and reaction liquid being ejected from separate ejection heads.
  • The regions where the ink and reaction liquid are applied partially overlap on the recording medium.

Potential Applications

The technology can be used in printing applications where uniformity and reduced stickiness on low-absorbent or non-absorbent surfaces are desired.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the issue of achieving satisfactory uniformity and reducing stickiness when recording images on low-absorbent or non-absorbent surfaces using ink jet printing.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved image quality, reduced stickiness, and enhanced performance when printing on low-absorbent or non-absorbent surfaces.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology can be applied in industries such as packaging, labeling, and printing where high-quality printing on low-absorbent or non-absorbent materials is required.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be ink jet printing methods that do not involve the use of a reaction liquid to improve image quality and reduce stickiness on low-absorbent or non-absorbent surfaces.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology compare to traditional ink jet printing methods on absorbent surfaces?

This article does not provide a direct comparison between this technology and traditional ink jet printing methods on absorbent surfaces. It would be interesting to know if there are any significant differences in terms of image quality, stickiness, or overall performance.

What are the potential environmental impacts of using aqueous ink and reaction liquid in this method?

The article does not address the potential environmental impacts of using aqueous ink and reaction liquid in this method. It would be important to consider factors such as waste disposal, chemical usage, and overall sustainability of the process.


Original Abstract Submitted

provided is an ink jet recording method capable of recording an image having satisfactory uniformity and suppressed stickiness on a low-absorbent or non-absorbent recording medium. the ink jet recording method includes recording an image on a low-absorbent or non-absorbent recording medium with an aqueous ink and an aqueous reaction liquid containing a reactant that reacts with the ink by applying the ink and the reaction liquid to the recording medium by a one-pass system. a step of applying the reaction liquid to the recording medium by ejecting the reaction liquid from a first ejection head and a step of applying the ink to the recording medium by ejecting the ink from a second ejection head so that a region to which the aqueous ink is applied and a region to which the reaction liquid is applied are at least partially overlap on the recording medium.
