Summary:PURPOSE:To obtain a recording medium superior in aqueous ink absorbing speed and capacity to form an image superior in durability, such as water resistance and adhesion, and fastness by a method wherein an ink accepting layer of the recording medium is made of a specific material. CONSTITUTION:A title recording medium consists of a substrate sheet and an ink absorbing layer provided at least on one surface of the substrate sheet. The ink absorbing layer contains a film forming agent and an aggregate. The film forming agent is a mixture composed of 100 pts.wt. (solid content) synthetic resin emulsion and 10-200 pts.wt. (solid content) colloidal silica. The aggragate is contained 100-800 pts.wt. per 100 pts.wt. of the film forming agent mixture. As the synthetic resin emulsion in use, for example, an acrylic or acryl-styrene resin is preferable. The colloidal silica in use which is approximately 1-100 millimicron silica particles dispersed in water is stabilized in a medium. As the aggregate, a calcium carbonate which does not deteriorate the performance of the ink absorbing layer is desirably used in a range of 10-100wt.% per 100 pts.wt. of the aggragate.
