Image recording method and ink jet printer

摘要

The image recording method records an image of a still subject on a recording medium using a diffuse reflection image signal of the image representing the still subject under a state where illumination light is diffuse-reflected and a glossiness signal representing glossiness of the sill subject. The method forms a diffuse reflection image of the still subject on the recording medium based on the diffuse reflection image signal and forms a gloss adjustment layer made of a transparent gloss adjustment material in each region in units of pixels of the diffuse reflection image formed on the recording medium based on signal values of the glossiness signal.
