Abstract
An ink jet printing method having the steps of: A) providing an ink jet printer that is responsive to digital data signals; B) loading the printer with an ink jet recording element having a support having thereon an image-receiving layer of porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, the polymeric binder being poly(vinyl alcohol) having a degree of hydrolysis of at least about 95% and having a number average molecular weight of at least about 45,000; C) loading the printer with an ink jet ink composition; and D) printing on the ink jet recording element using the inkjet ink composition in response to the digital data signals.

An ink jet printing method comprising the steps of:
- A) providing an ink jet printer that is responsive to digital data signals;
- B) loading said printer with an ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon an image-receiving layer comprising porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, said polymeric binder comprising poly(vinyl alcohol) having a degree of hydrolysis of at least about 95% and having a number average molecular weight of at least about 45,000, wherein said image-receiving layer contains from about 0.20 to about 10.0 g/m2 of said poly(vinyl alcohol) binder and from about 1.5 to about 60 g/m2 of said porous polymeric particles;
- C) loading said printer with an ink jet ink composition;
- and
- D) printing on said ink jet recording element using said ink jet ink composition in response to said digital data signals.
