ABSTRACT:
A method for recycling a support material of an image-bearing support is composed of the steps of (a) impregnating an image-bearing support, at least part of which is composed of a paper layer, and on which paper layer images made from a thermofusible ink containing a thermofusible resin component are formed, with at least one of water or an aqueous solution which is selected from the group consisting of an aqueous solution containing a surfactant, an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble polymer, and an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble polymer and a surfactant; (b) causing an image release member to adhere to the image bearing side of the support with the application of heat thereto, the image release member including a resin layer which is composed of the same thermofusible resin component as that contained in the thermofusible ink, or a resin layer having the same or substantially the same SP value as that of the thermofusible resin component in said thermofusible ink; and (c) peeling the images away from the support, under the conditions that the thermofusible ink is fused, by removing the image release member from the support.
