Provided is a method for forming an image with an ink-jet recorder provided with an ink-jet head, the method comprising the following steps in the sequence set forth: ejecting a photo-acid generator solution through the ink-jet head on a recording material, provided that the photo-acid generator solution contains a solvent and a photo-acid generator without containing a photopolymerizable compound; irradiating the ejected photo-acid generator solution on the recording material with actinic radiation rays; ejecting an actinic radiation curable ink containing a colorant through the ink-jet head on the recording material to form an image; and irradiating the image with actinic radiation rays so as to fix the formed image. |
