Jet recording method, normally solid recording material and recording apparatus for the method.

摘要

A normally solid recording material is heat-melted in a path defined by a nozzle leading to an ejection outlet and is imparted with a thermal energy corresponding to a recording signal to generate a bubble. As a result, a droplet of the recording material is ejected out of the ejection outlet under the action of the bubble while the bubble is communicated with the ambience. The normally solid recording material preferably contains a colorant, a first heat-fusible solid substance having a melting point Tm of 36 - 150 DEG C and a boiling point Tb of 150 - 370 DEG C, and a second heat-fusible solid substance having a melting point Tm and a solidifying point Tf satisfying a relationship of Tm - Tf
