PURPOSE: To obtain a recording device which does not require a photosensitive material to eliminate a trouble of an ink clogging and etc. and with less restrictions of the paper to be used and a great reliability at a low cost by forming a recording body by lamination of a dielectric layer and a conductive layer.
CONSTITUTION: A recoding body 1 consists of two layers of a dielectric layer and a conductive one, and the recording body 1 is uniformly charged with a charger 4. When a droplets 7 are jetted out while a liquid jet head 5 is moving at a certain scanning speed correspondingly to an image information signal 6, the droplets are jetted out and stick to the recording body at the position where the image information signal is energized. A volatile liquid is preferable. When the droplets 7 are volatiled, hardly any charge remains at the places where droplets adhered to, but (+) charge remains in a texture and latent image is formed. When a recording body 1 on which the latent image is formed is developed by a reversal developing with (+) charged toner 8, the charged toner 8 sticks only to the image portion where the charge is removed, and a positive image is formed. The toner image 11 is transferred to a transfer paper 10 which is fed between the recording body 1 and a transfer charger 9 by the transfer charger 9, and fixed by a fixer 12 and a hard copy is obtained.
