Abstract

An inkjet printing device includes an ink container accommodating a non-aqueous clear ink containing a resin and an organic solvent, a discharging head to discharge the non-aqueous clear ink directly or indirectly onto a substrate to form printed matter; and a heating device to heat the substrate, wherein the following relationship is satisfied: Tlow (° C.)>Thigh (° C.), where Tlow represents the temperature of the substrate that the heating device is heating during printing in a low gloss printing mode in which the non-aqueous clear ink is directly or indirectly discharged and attached to the substrate to impart low gloss to the printed matter and Thigh represents the temperature of the substrate that the heating device is heating during printing in a high gloss printing mode in which the non-aqueous clear ink is directly or indirectly discharged and attached to the substrate to impart high gloss to the printed matter.
