Patent ID: 7771804

Claim:
An inkjet recording medium, comprising a support and an ink receiving layer formed on at least one face of the support, wherein the inkjet recording medium satisfies the following conditions (i) and (ii): (i) the arithmetical mean deviation of the assessed profile Ra, as specified in JIS-B-0601(2001), of a surface of the ink receiving layer, determined with an evaluation length of 2.5 mm and a cutoff value of 0.8 mm, is 0.3 to 1.2 μm, and the peak value (reflectance) of the surface of the ink receiving layer, as determined by a goniophotometer, is in the range of 30 to 80; and (ii) the arithmetical mean deviation of the assessed profile Ra, as specified in JIS-B-0601(2001), of a surface of the support, determined with an evaluation length of 2.5 mm and a cutoff value of 0.8 mm, is 0.3 to 1.5 μm, and the peak value (reflectance) of the surface of the support, as determined by a goniophotometer, is in the range of 20 to 80.
