摘要

A recording media for phase change ink recording comprising: a support; 30-200 mg/dm2 of a receptive layer coated on the support wherein the receptive layer comprises: a binder comprising: a water soluble polymer; and a water insoluble polymer; wherein the combined weight of the water soluble polymer and the water insoluble polymer comprises at least 50%, by weight, and no more than 95%, by weight, water insoluble binder; and an optional inorganic particulate material. The media has an island size of no more than 15 mum and an asperity of 5.0 to 6.2 mum which is formed by controlling the drying rate.
