Pretreatment method for printing material, pretreatment device, ink jet textile printing apparatus and ink jet textile printing method

摘要

A pretreatment method for a printing material is performed prior to ink jet textile printing on the printing material and includes the steps of imparting a tension force to at least a printing area of the printing material on which ink jet textile printing is performed so as to put the printing area in a tensioned state, and applying a pretreatment agent having an ink permeation inhibiting property on the printing area in the tensioned state.

主权项

1. An ink jet textile printing apparatus comprising:
a set tray on which a printing material is set, an ink ejection head that ejects ink toward the printing material which is set on the set tray; a tension force imparting unit that imparts a tension force to at least a printing area of the printing material; a pretreatment agent applying unit that applies a pretreatment agent having an ink permeation inhibiting property on at least the printing area of the printing material which is set on the set tray in the tensioned state; and a control unit that controls at least one of operations of the ink ejection head, the tension force imparting unit and the pretreatment agent applying unit, wherein the control unit has a control mode to start ink jet textile printing by the ink ejection head when receiving information that indicates that the pretreatment agent has been applied by the pretreatment agent applying unit.
