  • inkjet inks examples include water-based inks in which coloring materials such as pigments are dispersed in an aqueous medium such as water.
  • Water-based inks are characterized by their high safety, and after the droplets land on the print medium, an image is formed on the print medium by allowing the aqueous medium contained in the water-based ink to penetrate the print medium or evaporate the aqueous medium.
