Abstract

After one ink of a white ink or a silver ink is ejected in a predetermined position of a recording medium such as a piece of recording paper to form a base layer, the other ink thereof is ejected on the base layer to form an intermediate layer, and a clear ink is ejected on the intermediate layer to form an epidermal layer.

Claims (26)

1. A liquid ejecting method comprising:

ejecting one liquid of a white-based liquid or a gloss-based liquid from a liquid ejecting head, the one liquid being ejected to a landing object to form a base layer;

ejecting the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid from the liquid ejecting head on the base layer to form an intermediate layer; and

ejecting a translucent clear liquid from the liquid ejecting head on the intermediate layer to form an epidermal layer,

wherein an ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid ejected from the liquid ejecting head is smaller than that of the one liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss based liquid.

2. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid is smaller than that of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or that of the gloss-based liquid.

3. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 2 ,

wherein an ejection volume of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or a gloss-based liquid is smaller than that of the one liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

4. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid is larger than that of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

5. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 1 ,

wherein a plurality of liquid droplets of the translucent clear liquid are ejected with respect to a single liquid droplet of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

6. A liquid ejecting method comprising:

ejecting one liquid of a white-based liquid or a gloss-based liquid from a liquid ejecting head to a landing object;

ejecting the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid from the liquid ejecting head on the one liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid landing on the landing object; and

ejecting a translucent clear liquid from the liquid ejecting head on the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid;

wherein an ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid ejected from the liquid ejecting head is smaller than that of the one liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

7. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 6 ,

wherein the ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid is smaller than that of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

8. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 7 ,

wherein an ejection volume of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or a gloss-based liquid is smaller than that of the one liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

9. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 6 ,

wherein the ejection volume of the translucent clear liquid is larger than that of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.

10. The liquid ejecting method according to claim 6 ,

wherein a plurality of liquid droplets of the translucent clear liquid are ejected with respect to a single liquid droplet of the other liquid of the white-based liquid or the gloss-based liquid.
