Patent ID: 7311371

Claim:
A method for inkjet recording by discharging a non-aqueous ink containing a non-aqueous solvent and a pigment by an inkjet system to record on a recording medium, the method comprising: a step of preparing recording paper having a thickness exceeding 0.083 mm as a recording medium, a step of obtaining a volume V m and a thickness T m of the recording paper, a step of obtaining a volume V s of a solvent that is capable of being retained by the recording paper by using a solvent having a vapor pressure at 25° C. of 0.001 mmHg or less and a specific gravity of from 0.800 to 1.200, a step of obtaining a solvent absorptivity A sl. (%) of the recording paper by the following equation (1): A sl. =( V s /V m )×100 (1) a step of obtaining an allowable ink amount V I (pl/m 2 ) per unit area of the recording paper by the following equation (2): V I =( T m −0.083)× A sl. ×10 12 (2) and a step of discharging the non-aqueous ink in an amount V d (pl/m 2 ) satisfying the following equation (3) by an inkjet system: V d ≦V I (3).
