PURPOSE:To conduct ink jet recording distinctly on various general-purpose record media by preheating and heating recording sections of the record media for a period from before-printing to after-printing with an outgoing heat source from a heat-generating source lamp with a reflecting plate when recording. CONSTITUTION:A recording head 1 is moved along a carriage guide 2, and performs ink jet recording on recording paper 3 intermittently line-fed by a platen 4 and a guide roller 5. On the other hand, luminous radiation from a heat-generating source lamp 7 such as a bar-shaped halogen lamp is focussed and projected within a heating range 10 extending over a section from before to behind a recording section on the surface of recording paper 3 by a reflecting plate 8, and the heating range is preheated and heated by radiation and heat transfer. The radiation and heating of the recording head 1 are prevented by a light-shielding cover 6, and the adhesion of dust onto the lamp 7 and the reflecting plate 8 is prevented by a transparent cover glass 9. Accordingly, a distinct picture having the same quality can be recorded on a general-purpose record medium, such as marketing wood free paper, a non-coated OHP sheet, etc. |
