a colorless ink jetting step of jetting a colorless ink including a polymerizable compound, a photopolymerization initiator, and an organic solvent from the ink jet head onto the colored ink after the heating;
a colorless ink heating step of heating the colorless ink jetted onto the colored ink after the heating by maintaining the surface temperature of the recording medium at 40°C or higher; and
a colorless ink curing step of curing the colorless ink by irradiating the colorless ink after the heating with an active energy ray.
2. The ink jet recording method according to claim 1,
wherein the colored ink further includes a polymer having a weight-average molecular weight of 20,000 to 100,000 in an amount of 2% by mass or higher with respect to a total mass of the colored ink.
3. The ink jet recording method according to claim 1 or 2, further comprising, after the
colored ink heating step and before the colorless ink jetting step:
a colored ink curing step of curing the colored ink by irradiating the colored ink after the heating with the active energy ray,
wherein the colored ink further includes a polymerizable compound and a photopolymerization initiator.
4. The ink jet recording method according to claim 3,
wherein the colored ink includes, as the polymerizable compound, an acrylate compound having a weight-average molecular weight of 1,000 to 30,000 in an amount of 15% by mass to 30% by mass with respect to a total mass of the colored ink.
5. The ink jet recording method according to claim 3 or 4,
wherein the polymerizable compound included in the colored ink includes at least one kind of an acrylate compound, and
a total mass of a monofunctional acrylate compound and a bifunctional acrylate compound is 50% by mass or higher with respect to a total mass of the polymerizable compound.
6. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 5,
wherein the polymerizable compound included in the colorless ink includes at least one kind of an acrylate compound, and
a total mass of a monofunctional acrylate compound and a bifunctional acrylate compound is 30% by mass or higher with respect to a total mass of the polymerizable compound.
7. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 6,
wherein the colorless ink further includes acrylic modified polyorganosiloxane having a weight-average molecular weight of 20,000 to 400,000 in an amount of 0.1% by mass to 5% by mass with respect to a total mass of the colorless ink.
8. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 7,
wherein a content of the organic solvent included in the colorless ink is 50% by mass to 85% by mass with respect to a total mass of the colorless ink.
9. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 8,
wherein a boiling point of the organic solvent included in the colorless ink is 150°C to
250°C.
10. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 9,
wherein a boiling point Tbp (T) of the organic solvent included in the colorless ink and a boiling point Tbp (C) of the organic solvent included in the colored ink satisfy a relationship of Expression (1).
11. The ink jet recording method according to any one of claims 1 to 10,
wherein surface tension y (C) of the colored ink and surface tension y (T) of the
colorless ink at a temperature of 25°C satisfy a relationship of Expression (2).
