Abstract:
1. A method for inkjet recording, comprising recording an image by applying an ink by an inkjet method onto an inkjet recording medium comprising a substrate and an ink receiving layer, the ink receiving layer comprising inorganic fine particles and a water-soluble metal compound provided on the substrate, and drying at least the image recorded on the inkjet recording medium, wherein the recording medium comprises, on the substrate in this order from the substrate side: a first ink receiving layer comprising inorganic fine particles, a nitrogen-containing organic cationic polymer and an optional water-soluble metal compound; and a second ink receiving layer comprising inorganic fine particles, a water-soluble metal compound and an optional nitrogen-containing organic cationic polymer, wherein a content of the nitrogen-containing organic cationic polymer in the first ink receiving layer is higher than that in the second ink receiving layer, and a content of the water-soluble metal compound in the first ink receiving layer is lower than that in the second ink receiving layer, wherein the drying is performed by providing heat in an amount of 2 kJ or less per 102 mm×152 mm, and wherein a maximum total ejection amount of the ink is from 10 mL/m
