    摘要: In a complimentary printing by bi-directional scanning of a head (1) or by a plurality of heads, a plurality of patterns in which a print start timing is shifted by a predetermined amount are printed with respect to a reference dot, e.g. formed by the forward scan of the bi-directional scanning or by one of the plurality heads (S1). In these patterns, an area factor by the dots formed by printing of the patterns is designed to be varied depending upon shifting amount. An average density is read from each of the plurality of patterns, optically (S2). The timing at which the maximum one among average densities read from the patterns is obtained, can be set as the printing registration condition (S3, S4). Further, a processing including a coarse adjustment (S104, S105, S108) to a fine adjustment (S107, S109) is performed in a series of algorithm. By these processings, printing registration between a forward and a reverse scan of a print head or printing registration between a plurality of print heads in a printing apparatus can be performed simply and with high accuracy, without operating by a user.

    摘要: An inkjet recording apparatus suppresses defective ejection while reducing a consumed ink amount. In the apparatus, a cap-open period, during which a cap member does not cap ejection ports of a recording head of the apparatus, is measured, and a recovery operation executed by a recovery unit is controlled based on a cumulated cap-open period. With the above arrangement, there can be solved a problem that the ink ejecting state of the recording head is deteriorated depending on a recording operation because a cap-open state, in which the cap member does not cap the ejection ports of the recording head, continues while the inkjet recording apparatus executes the recording operation, thereby the reliability of the inkjet recording apparatus can be improved.

    摘要: A print apparatus that, without significantly reducing an overall printing speed, allows a reduction in uneven densities due to the discharge time difference between black ink and color inks, which occur particularly at both ends in a scanning range and which are caused by the printing by bidirectional scanning of print heads, and enables high image-quality printing to be realized. In this print apparatus, one band is divided into plural areas in a main scanning direction, the dot numbers of black ink and color ink imparted to respective areas are counted. If there are any areas where the dot numbers of both black and color exceed respective threshold values, the area number is counted, and if the number exceeds a predetermined number, the print mode is switched from bidirectional printing to a unidirectional one, upon determining that there is a high probability of occurrence of the above-described uneven densities.

    摘要: To reduce the number of simultaneously driven printing elements so that the instantaneously flowing current is restricted in a printing system for completing an image by repeating the printing scan a plurality of times in the same printing area while applying random mask thereto. For this purpose, a mask of a predetermined size is structured as a thinning pattern in which data are arranged randomly, the data being for determining whether or not the respective ink ejection openings in a printing head are to be driven when the printing head repeats the scan a plurality of times in the same printing area of a printing medium. When forming an image, the printing elements concerned with the printing operation in the same printing area are divided into a plurality of sections, and the thinning patterns (MASK A to MASK D) complementary to each other are applied to the respective sections during the respective printing scans (S101 to S104).

    摘要: The present invention reduces a difference in speed between a main drop section and a tailing section of a ejected ink droplet by heating a front heater and a rear heater provided for one nozzle with a predetermined time lag and thus, the ink dot formed from the main drop section and the tailing section on a printing medium can be more approximate to a circle. Thereby, it is possible to prevent print quality from being degraded by the tailing section separated from the main drop section of the ink droplet ejected from an ink jet printing apparatus of serial type.
