An ink-jet recording method and an ink-jet recording apparatus, wherein
ink image with high quality and good abrasion resistance without
generation of beading and bleeding are formed on recording media, in
ink-jet recording using an intermediate transfer body, are provided. An
ink image is formed by applying an image fixing component (for example
reacting liquid) to an intermediate transfer body, and then applying inks
of colors, Y, M, C, and K, from print heads corresponding each color.
Then a supplementary liquid is applied to the ink image, and the ink
image is transferred to a recording media.
