  • the heat source of the heating include infrared rays (lamp), for example.
  • the ink composition attachment process includes attaching the pigment textile printing inkjet ink composition described above to a region where the treatment liquid composition for ink jet pigment textile printing is attached to a fabric; and attaching a chromatic color pigment textile printing ink jet ink composition onto the region where the pigment textile printing inkjet ink composition is attached.
  • the ink composition attachment step includes these two processes, two-layer printing occurs in which an image is formed by the chromatic color pigment textile printing ink jet ink composition on an image formed by the pigment textile printing ink jet ink composition.
  • the ink jet pigment textile printing method comprises the treatment liquid composition attachment step using the treatment liquid composition for ink jet pigment textile printing of the first aspect of the invention.
  • This contains the nonionic fluorine-based surfactant having an HLB value within a range of 6 or more and 13 or less. and therefore the permeation of an ink attached in the ink-composition attachment steps is suppressed.
