An ink jet recording method comprising: applying an undercoating liquid containing an oligomer onto a recording medium; partially curing the undercoating liquid that has been applied onto the recording medium; and recording an image by ejecting an ink that is curable by irradiation of actinic energy onto the partially cured undercoating liquid. According to the invention, an image having excellent uniformity can be recorded on various types of recording media, irrespective of the type thereof, ink bleeding and unevenness in line width or color due to coalescence of ink droplets can be effectively suppressed, and an image with high density and a uniform dot diameter can be recorded when the image has low dot density such as low image resolution or image density. |
