Abstract
There is provided a method and apparatus for recording an image on a recording member, e.g., a sheet of paper, wherein a liquid coloring agent, e.g., an ink, is arranged in a recording head and electric and thermal energies are applied to the coloring agent to jet out that portion of the coloring agent located in the area to which both energies have been applied. Both energies preferably are simultaneously applied in a pulsatile manner and controlled to apply them to the coloring agent so that droplets of the agent are directed toward the recording member to provide stable, high speed recording.
