Abstract
A light-transmissive recording medium is provided which has an ink receiving layer formed mainly of a water-soluble polymer and a crosslinking agent on a light-transmissive substrate, wherein the polymer constituting said ink receiving layer has a crosslinking degree within the range of from the crosslinking degree satisfying the water resistance of the ink receiving layer in JIS K 5400 to the crosslinking degree giving the ink receiving capacity of 0.2 .mu.l/cm.sup.2 in the ink receiving layer. A recording method employing the above-mentioned recording medium is also provided.
Claims33
A light-transmissive recording medium comprising a light transmissive substrate and an ink-receiving layer on the light transmissive substrate, said ink-receiving layer comprising a water-soluble polymer crosslinked with a crosslinking agent, and said ink-receiving layer having a water resistance meeting the standards of JIS K 5400 and an ink-receiving capacity of at least 0.2 .mu.l/cm.sup.2.
A light-transmissive recording medium comprising a light transmissive substrate and an ink-receiving layer on the light transmissive substrate, said ink-receiving layer comprising a water-soluble polymer crosslinked with a crosslinking agent, and said ink-receiving layer having a water resistance meeting the standards of JIS K 5400, an ink-receiving capacity of at least 0.2 .mu.l/cm.sup.2 and a linear transmittance of 10% or higher.
A recording method comprising forming droplets of a recording liquid and attaching said droplets onto a recording medium, wherein said recording liquid is an aqueous ink and said recording medium is a light transmissive recording medium comprising a light transmissive substrate and an ink-receiving layer on the light transmissive substrate, said ink-receiving layer comprising a water-soluble polymer crosslinked with a crosslinking agent, and said ink-receiving layer having a water resistance meeting the standards of JIS K 5400 and an ink-receiving capacity of at least 0.2 .mu.l/cm.sup.2.
