A printing method includes selecting an inkjet ink including a pigment, and selecting an active agent, including an electromagnetic radiation-absorbing active material, and an aqueous or non-aqueous vehicle. The method further includes inkjet printing the inkjet ink and the active agent directly onto a textile fabric. The textile fabric having the ink and active agent thereon is exposed to electromagnetic radiation.

Disclosed in certain embodiments is a composition comprising a structural colorant comprising photonic particles comprising a metal oxide and from about 0.1% to about 50% w/w of an organic material.

A film including a surface layer is described. In particular, the surface layer includes a low gloss layer including a binder containing a resin and resin beads having an average particle size of 4 μm to 20 μm, and a printed pattern partially covering the low gloss layer, a region of the low gloss layer not covered with the printed pattern exhibits a matte appearance with 1.5 GU or less at 60 degrees of a surface glossiness, a surface glossiness of a region of the printed pattern is higher than the surface glossiness of the region not covered with the printed pattern, and the film has a visible texture.

The present invention relates to an aqueous pre-treatment liquid for use in ink jet printing, the pre-treatment liquid comprising water and magnesium-disulfamate. Such pre-treatment composition is and yellowing and crystal-free and shows good jetting properties. These properties are retained even when a solid co-solvent is added to the composition for anti-curl improvement. Therefore, the present invention enables providing non-yellowing pre-treatment liquids with good jetting properties and anti-curl behavior.

An example of a dye discharge fluid includes a water-soluble organic solvent, a heat activated reducing agent, and water. A pH of the dye discharge fluid is less than 7. The dye discharge fluid may be used with a colored pigmented inkjet ink, a white pigmented inkjet ink, and/or a colored textile fabric, and may be included in a fluid set and/or a printing kit.

Provided are an ink for an impermeable base material, including an aqueous medium and resin particles, in which a resin of the resin particles has a glass transition temperature of −40° C. or higher and 85° C. or lower, the resin has at least one selected from the group consisting of a unit (1) to a unit (3), and at least one of an acid group or a salt of the acid group, an acid value of the resin is 0.10 mmol/g or greater and 2.65 mmol/g or less, and a proportion of a solvent having a boiling point of 250° C. or higher in the aqueous medium is 3% by mass or less, and an image recording method. R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1 to C4 alkyl group, A.sup.2 represents —NH— or —N(L.sup.4-Y.sup.4)—, L.sup.2 and L.sup.4 represent a divalent group or a single bond, L.sup.3 represents a divalent group, and Y.sup.2 to Y.sup.4 represent a monovalent group.
