PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image recording method with high transfer efficiency.SOLUTION: An image recording method includes recording an intermediate image by applying ink to an intermediate transfer member, and transferring the intermediate image onto a recording medium while heating the intermediate image. The ink contains a coloring material and resin fine particles which have an interpenetrating network structure constituted by a crystalline resin and an amorphous resin. In transferring the intermediate image, the intermediate image is heated to a temperature equal to or higher than a melting point of the crystalline resin and equal to or higher than a glass transition point of the amorphous resin. |
