An example fixer composition includes a glycidyl amine resin, an acid, a co-solvent, and a balance of water. The glycidyl amine resin includes at least two epoxide groups, a phenyl group, and a tertiary amine group. The fixer composition may be included in a printing kit with an ink composition. In an example, the ink composition including a pigment, a polymeric binder, and an aqueous ink vehicle.

A set of a processing fluid and an ink is provided where the ink contains a coloring material, an organic solvent, and a resin R.sup.i and the processing fluid contains a polyvalent metal salt, a resin R.sup.t, and a silicone-based surfactant. A maximum tensile stress of an ink film obtained by drying the ink is 2 N/mm.sup.2 or greater.

An object of the present invention is to provide a precoat liquid which can prevent the penetration of an actinic radiation-curable ink into a recording medium and which is less likely to damage the texture of the recording medium. A precoat liquid, capable of achieving the object, for an actinic radiation-curable ink includes a hydrophilic polymer, a hydrophilic solvent, water, and resin fine particles. The amount of the hydrophilic polymer is 1 part by mass or more and 100 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the hydrophilic solvent.

A textile printing ink jet ink composition includes a dioxazine pigment, a resin particle, and a lubricant, wherein the content of the dioxazine pigment is 0.5 to 1.5 mass % based on the total amount of the ink composition.

A textile printing ink jet ink composition includes a dioxazine pigment, a resin particle, and a lubricant, wherein the content of the dioxazine pigment is 0.5 to 1.5 mass % based on the total amount of the ink composition.

The present invention provides an inkjet ink comprising: 6-35% by weight of NYC; 5-60% by weight of PEA; 15-35% by weight of a CS.12 alkane dial di(meth)acrylate; a radical photoinitiator; and a colorant, wherein the percentages by weight are based on the total weight of the ink. The present invention further provides an inkjet ink set wherein at least one of the inks in the set, preferably all of the inks in the set, is an inkjet ink as defined above. Furthermore, the present invention provides a method of inkjet printing comprising inkjet printing the inkjet ink or inkjet ink set as defined above onto a substrate and curing the ink.

A cleaning liquid includes water, a surfactant, and glycol ether. The surfactant is an acetylene surfactant or a silicone surfactant. A content ratio of the glycol ether is at least 5% by mass and no greater than 15% by mass relative to a mass of the cleaning liquid. Preferably, a contact angle of the cleaning liquid to an austenitic stainless steel plate is no greater than 40 degrees.
