A recording paper usable in both inkjet recording and electrophotographic
recording, and an image recording method using the recording paper. The
recording paper includes a base paper that is composed mainly of pulp
fibers, contains a filler, and is coated with a cationic resin on one or
both sides, wherein surface electric resistivity at 22.degree. C. and 55%
relative humidity is 1.0.times.10.sup.9 to 1.0.times.10.sup.11 .OMEGA. and
volume electric resistivity at 22.degree. C. and 55% relative humidity is
1.0.times.10.sup.10 to 1.0.times.10.sup.12 .OMEGA..multidot.cm.
