Inkjet recording method

An inkjet recording method, comprising:

• preparing an inkjet recording medium which comprises a resin coated paper having a resin layer A of thickness “a” at one side of a base paper, and a resin layer B that is thinner than the thickness “a” by a thickness of 3 μm to 20 μm at the other side of the base paper, and ink receiving layers each comprising an inorganic pigment and a binder and being provided at either side of the resin coated paper;
• conveying the inkjet recording medium while the inkjet recording medium is suctioned to a conveyance path from the resin layer A side;
• recording an image by applying ink by an inkjet recording method onto the ink receiving layer at the resin layer B side of the inkjet recording medium suctioned to the conveyance path;
• correcting a curling direction of the inkjet recording medium, on which the image has been recorded, in a direction in which the recorded surface side faces inward in a concave posture;
• conveying the curl-corrected inkjet recording medium while it is suctioned to the conveyance path such that the ink receiving layer on which the image has been recorded at the resin layer B side faces the conveyance path;
• and
• recording an image by applying ink by an inkjet recording method to the ink receiving layer on which an image has not yet been recorded at the resin layer A side of the inkjet recording medium suctioned to the conveyance path.

• conveying a part of the roll of the recording medium while it is suctioned to a conveyance path from the resin layer A side;
• recording an image by applying ink by an inkjet recording method onto the ink receiving layer at the resin layer B side of the recording medium suctioned to the conveyance path;
• cutting the recording medium on which the image has been recorded to a predetermined size, at least at the downstream side in the conveyance direction of the image, to form a recording medium sheet;
• drying and removing at least a part of ink components from the resulting recording medium sheet;
• correcting a curling direction of the recording medium sheet after the drying and removal of the ink components, in the direction in which the recorded surface side faces inward in a concave posture;
• conveying the curl-corrected recording medium while the recording medium is suctioned from the resin layer B side such that the front and back surfaces of the curl-corrected recording medium are inverted, and the ink receiving layer on which the image has been recorded at the resin layer B side faces the conveyance path;
• and
• recording an image by applying ink by an inkjet recording method onto the ink receiving layer on which an image has not yet been recorded at the resin layer A side of the inkjet recording medium suctioned to the conveyance path.
