Abstract

An ink jet printing method, comprising the steps of: A) providing an ink jet printer that is responsive to digital data signals; B) loading the printer with an ink jet recording element comprising a non-absorbing substrate; C) loading the printer with an ink jet ink composition comprising an aqueous ink jet ink composition comprising: a pigment, a polymer binder containing less than 25% of hydrophilic monomer by weight of the total polymer, which is dispersible but insoluble in aqueous media, at least one surfactant, and a humectant; and D) printing on the ink jet recording element accompanied by a heating step using the ink jet ink composition in response to the digital data signals.
