Abstract
Provide is a process for forming images comprising the steps of forming images on a recording medium provided with an ink-receiving layer containing inorganic particles using an ink-jet recording method, and laminating a coat layer onto said ink-receiving layer with images formed thereon, wherein said ink-receiving layer is calendered either before forming images on said ink-receiving layer or before laminating said coat layer after forming images on said ink-receiving layer.
Claims6
A process for forming images comprising the steps of:
- forming images on a recording medium having an ink-receiving layer comprising inorganic particles using an ink-jet recording method;
- calendering said ink-receiving layer with images formed thereon;
- and
- laminating a coat layer onto said ink-receiving layer with images formed thereon after the calendering;
- wherein said calendering step reduces unevenness at the surface of the ink-receiving layer.
A process for improving optical density of images formed on a recording medium having an ink-receiving layer that includes inorganic particles comprising the steps of:
- calendering said ink-receiving layer with images formed thereon;
- and
- laminating a coat layer onto said ink-receiving layer with images formed thereon after the calendering;
- wherein said calendering step reduces unevenness at the surface of the ink-receiving layer.
