Abstract
A cleaning liquid contains water, a specific organic solvent, and an acetylene surfactant. The specific organic solvent is at least one selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohol and polyalkylene glycol. The specific organic solvent has a percentage content of at least 1% by mass and no greater than 18% by mas to the mass of the cleaning liquid. The acetylene surfactant has a percentage content of at least 0.3% by mass and no greater than 1.0% by mass to the mass of the cleaning liquid.
Claims8
An inkjet recording apparatus liquid set comprising:
- a first liquid;
- and
- a second liquid, wherein
- the first liquid is an ink and the second liquid is a cleaning liquid,
- the cleaning liquid contains water, a specific organic solvent, and an acetylene surfactant,
