Abstract
A digital printing process for inkjet printing on a recording medium using ink including a carrier liquid and a colorant, in particular on a recording medium which is configured not to absorb the carrier liquid or to absorb only a portion of the carrier liquid during the inkjet printing. The process includes the steps of: jetting ink on the recording medium; bringing one or more continuously rotating members in rotational contact with the jetted ink on the recording medium such that a colorant-poor portion of the ink is adsorbed to the one or more rotating members and a colorant-rich portion remains on the recording medium. The colorant-rich portion includes more colorant than said colorant-poor portion. The process further includes continuously removing said colorant-poor portion of the one or more continuously rotating members.
