Water-based ink set for ink-jet recording and ink-jet recording method

摘要

A water-based ink set for ink-jet recording is provided which is capable of: reducing graininess in a low-density printed part without reducing the color reproduction range in red and magenta directions in a high-density printed part; extending the color reproduction range in the red direction; improving the vividness of the red color; and improving the light fastness and gas resistance. The water-based ink set for ink-jet recording includes a magenta dye ink and a red pigment ink. The magenta dye ink is a light magenta dye ink having a lightness (L*) of about 50 or more in the L*a*b* calorimetric system.
