An ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon, in order, a hydrophilic absorbing layer and a polymeric overcoat layer comprising particles of a substantially amorphous synthetic aluminosilicate. Such recording elements exhibit improved humidity keeping and smudge resistance, while maintaining good differential gloss.

Ink jet recording element and printing method

An inkjet recording element comprising a support having thereon, in order, a support having thereon a ink-receiving layer comprising a hydrophilic polymer and particles of an aluminosilicate in an amount of less than 30 weight percent solids, based on the total weight of the layer. Such recording elements exhibit improved humidity keeping for print sharpness.

Non-porous inkjet recording element and printing method

An inkjet recording element comprising a support having thereon a subbing layer comprising particles of an aluminosilicate for improved adhesion.

Inkjet recording element comprising subbing layer and printing method

An inkjet recording element comprising a support having thereon, in order, a support having thereon an ink-receiving layer comprising a hydrophilic polymer, a polymeric mordant, and particles of an aluminosilicate. Such recording elements exhibit improved humidity keeping.

Mordanted inkjet recording element and printing method

An ink jet recording element having a substrate having thereon: a) a subbing layer comprising an amine inactivated gelatin; and b) an image-receiving layer of a cross-linkable polymer containing hydroxyl groups and a polymeric mordant, the cross-linkable polymer being present at a thickness of from about 2 to about 40 &#x3bc;m and the weight ratio of the cross-linkable polymer to the mordant being from about 30:70 to about 95:5.

Ink jet recording element

Ink jet printing method

An ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon an image-receiving layer comprising at least about 70% by weight of porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, the porous polymeric particles having a core/shell structure comprising a porous polymeric core covered with a shell of a water-soluble polymer.

An ink jet recording element comprising an opaque support having thereon an image-receiving layer comprising porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, the porous polymeric particles having a median diameter of less than about 1 &mgr;m and having a degree of crosslinking of about 27 mole % or greater.

An ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon an image-receiving layer comprising at least about 80% by weight of non-porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, the non-porous polymeric particles having a core/shell structure comprising a polymeric core covered with a shell of a water-soluble polymer.

An ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon an image-receiving layer comprising non-porous polymeric particles in a polymeric binder, the non-porous polymeric particles being present in an amount of at least about 8 parts of particles per part of polymeric binder, and the non-porous polymeric particles having a degree of crosslinking of at least about 30 mole %.
