Abstract
Disclosed is a method for forming an image with an ink-jet recoding method which forms the image on a coated printing paper by employing an ink containing water in an amount of 20 to 90 weight based on the total weight of the ink, a pigment and a resin, the method containing the sequential steps of: applying an aqueous processing solution on the coated printing paper; drying the aqueous processing solution applied on the coated printing paper; and ejecting droplets of the ink on the coated printing paper, wherein the aqueous processing solution is capable of aggregating the ink or increasing a viscosity of the ink, and the coated printing paper is heated from 40 to 60° C. during the step of ejecting the droplets of the ink.
