An inkjet printing method, comprising:
- preparing an ink jetting unit that jets ink to a substrate, a stage that movably supports the substrate relative to the ink jetting unit, and a pair of air-conditioning units arranged at front and rear ends of the ink jetting unit in a direction in which the stage is moved, the air-conditioning units each including an air blowing unit and a suction unit;
- moving the stage relative to the ink jetting unit in one direction;
- forming a thin film on the substrate by jetting ink by using the ink jetting unit;
- forming an air curtain in front of and at the back of an inkjet space between the ink jetting unit and the substrate by jetting air by using the air blowing unit;
- and
- absorbing residues of the ink that did not contribute to forming of the thin film by using the suction unit and discharging the residues of the ink to the outside.
