The invention discloses an inscription control method for mixing a character vector and a scalar characteristic and an imprinter. The method and the imprinter are suitable for a metal product marking field. By using the inscription method, according to an inscription content, the vector of the character and the scalar characteristic can be mixed and an adaptive program can be performed on an inscription track. By using the current inscription control method, an adaptive selection can not be performed on a moving path of a syringe needle according to the inscription content, which causes that a generated inscription track is a serpentine inscription track and the moving path of the syringe needle is long. By using the method of the invention, the above problem can be solved and inscription efficiency can be effectively increased. In the inscription method of the invention, a lattice distribution of the each character is regarded as combination of several lattice continuation blocks. Cumulative errors can be effectively controlled and inscription precision can be increased.
