Abstract
A non-impact electric image transfer recording method is disclosed, which comprises the steps of applying a recording voltage-signal to a recording medium comprising an electroconductive support and a polymer gel layer containing therein a liquid ink formed on the electroconductive support, thereby causing the liquid ink to ooze from said polymer gel layer, and transferring the liquid ink to a recording sheet to form images thereon, which step may be followed by the step of applying to the polymer gel layer a voltage with an opposite polarity to that of the recording voltage-signal after the transfer of the liquid ink to a recording sheet.
