(57) [Summary] [Structure] The dimension of the recording liquid heating part 57 in the surface direction is 0.2. A porous structure (columnar body 61) consisting of a fine portion having a size of ˜3 μm and a dimension in the direction orthogonal to the plane direction of 2 to 15 μm is formed in the recording liquid heating part 57, and at the time of recording, the temperature is 300 ° C. or higher. When heated, 90% by weight or more is vaporized and the residue is 10% by weight or less. Boiling point to dissolve or disperse 5% or more by weight below ℃ 150 An ink jet recording method using a recording liquid 62 containing a solvent at a temperature of not less than ° C. [Effect] While taking advantage of the advantages of both the thermal transfer method and the inkjet method, these drawbacks are eliminated at the same time to achieve excellent resolution and intra-pixel gradation, combine high image quality and immediacy, and have a compact and lightweight device. It is possible to provide a recording method that can be applied to a plain paper without generating waste, can be performed with low power consumption and low running cost, and a recording liquid used for this method. . |
