Abstract

An ink-jet printing cloth is disclosed in which a selected type of polyethylene oxide is incorporated in specified amounts. The polyethylene oxide has a larger viscosity average molecular weight of from 100,000 to 3,000,000 and acts to pretreat a starting cloth material so as to be adequate for ink-jet printing. The ink-jet printing cloth is highly capable of providing images of great color depth with sufficient brightness and sharpness but freedom from an objectionable bleeding. Also disclosed are a textile printing method using that printing cloth and a print resulting from this method.
