ABSTRACT:
A recording method in which a liquid adhesion region and a liquid non-adhesion region of a surface of a material are utilized in a recording process. A latent image is formed by applying a heat onto portions of recording material. The recording material includes a surface having a receding contact angle, which receding contact angle decreases either when a temperature of the surface becomes more than a predetermined temperature in a condition where the surface is in contact with a liquid or when the surface is made to come in contact with a liquid in a condition where the temperature of the surface is at or exceeds a predetermined temperature. A plurality of visible color images corresponding to the latent image are formed by causing the surface come into contact with a recording agent containing a coloring agent and a fine powder of the recording material, each color image except for the color image formed first being formed on a layer formed of fine powder contained in a previously applied recording agent. The visible color images on the recording material are transferred onto a recording paper.
