| 20090020920 | THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECT FORMING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FORMING THREE DIMENSIONAL OBJECT - A three-dimensional object forming apparatus forms a three-dimensional object by binding powder particles with a curable liquid. The apparatus includes a powder layer forming unit that spreads a powder to a uniform thickness to form a powder layer. A curable liquid ejection head ejects the curable liquid to the powder layer through an ejection nozzle. A sectional data producing device produces sectional data at each of a plurality of cross sections of a desired three-dimensional object according to shape data of the desired three-dimensional object. A cross-sectional member forming section is also included by which cross-sectional members are formed by ejecting the curable liquid to the powder layer from the curable liquid ejection head according to the sectional data and thus binding the powder layer. The cross-sectional member forming section includes a permeation rate controller controlling the permeation rate of the curable liquid to the powder layer. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090167794 | LIQUID EJECTION APPARATUS, LIQUID STORAGE AND CONTROL METHOD OF A LIQUID EJECTION APPARATUS - To respond to variation of characteristics of light-curable liquid. In order to do that, ink information that is recorded in a contact ROM of an ink cartridge is read out, and adjustment is performed based on the read-out ink information. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20100009136 | INK SET, INK JET RECORDING METHOD, RECORDED MATTER, AND INK JET RECORDING APPARATUS - An ink set includes an oil-based ink composition containing a metallic pigment; and at least one oil-based ink composition selected from the group consisting of a chromatic color ink composition containing a chromatic color oil dye, a black ink composition containing a black oil dye, and a colorless and transparent ink composition that does not contain a colorant. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100055424 | PRINTING APPARATUS, PRINTING METHOD, PROGRAM AND PRINTED PRODUCT - A printing apparatus, a printing method, an application program and a printing medium are disclosed. The printing apparatus is coupled to a control circuit which with the help of the application program, controls the operation of the printing apparatus. The printing apparatus contains at least two kinds of glossy recording materials with different concentrations. The printing apparatus performs glossy printing on a printing medium by controlling the usage of the two kinds of glossy recording materials. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100187805 | INK JET RECORDING METHOD AND RECORD - An ink jet recording method for recording an image having a metallic luster on a recording medium with an ink jet recording apparatus includes forming an underlayer on the recording medium by applying droplets of a first ink composition containing a first thermoplastic resin to the recording medium and also includes forming a metallic luster layer on the underlayer by applying droplets of a second ink composition containing a metal pigment and a second thermoplastic resin to the underlayer. The glass transition temperature of the first thermoplastic resin is lower than or equal to the glass transition temperature of the second thermoplastic resin. The underlayer is formed at a temperature higher than the glass transition temperature of the first thermoplastic resin. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100207973 | IMAGE-FORMING METHOD AND RECORD - An image-forming method includes a first image-forming step of forming an image on a fabric with a first ink composition and a second image-forming step of forming an image on the fabric with a second ink composition subsequently to the first image-forming step. The first ink composition contains a first colorant. The second ink composition contains a second colorant. The first colorant has an average particle size less than that of the second colorant. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100227129 | IMAGE-FORMING METHOD AND RECORD - An image-forming method for forming an image on a sheet of fabric with an ink composition includes forming the image on the fabric sheet with the ink composition and pressing the fabric sheet subsequently to the formation of the image. The ink composition contains a colorant containing hollow resin particles or metal compound particles and also contains a resin dispersion containing resin particles having an average size greater than the average particle size of the colorant. | 09-09-2010 |
