Abstract
A transfer-type ink jet recording apparatus including an intermediate image forming unit for applying an ink containing a resin to an intermediate transfer member to form an intermediate image and a transfer unit for transferring the intermediate image to a recording medium. The apparatus further includes a heating unit for heating the intermediate image to a temperature equal to or higher than the minimum film forming temperature of the resin and a cooling unit for cooling the intermediate image heated by the heating unit to a temperature lower than the glass transition temperature of the resin to supply the image to the transfer unit.
