摘要:
The present invention can correct, when a printing position is displaced by an inclination of a printing head for example, the displacement in an easy and effective manner and also allows a user to easily recognize the displacement of the printing position to correct the displacement. To realize this, dots (61, 62) for forming a test pattern are formed by different scannings by a nozzle group including a plurality of nozzles (N176~N192) positioned at one end side of a nozzle row and a nozzle group including a plurality of nozzles (N1~N16) positioned at the other end side of the nozzle row. Depending on displacements of the printing positions of these dots (61, 62), the plurality of nozzles (N1~N192) constituting the nozzle row are divided to a plurality of divided nozzle groups. Then, the printing position is adjusted on the basis of the divided nozzle groups.

A recording apparatus (100), performing recording by time-division driving of multiple recording elements on a recording head in increments of blocks, includes: a storing unit (217) storing recording data; an obtaining unit obtaining information relating to inclination of the recording elements in the main scanning direction; a changing unit changing, in increments of recording elements, the main scanning direction storage position of recording data stored in the storing unit (217) to be provided to recording elements of a group, configured of consecutive recording elements in each block of the recording elements, based on the obtained information; and a determining unit determining the driving order of the recording elements subjected to time-division driving in increments of the blocks, for each of the scans; wherein recording is performed based on recording data with the main scanning direction storage position having been changed by the changing unit, and the driving order determined by the determining unit.
摘要:
A printing apparatus and a conveyance control method are provided, both capable of detecting a print medium conveying state highly precisely in an entire process of conveying the print medium being printed. For this purpose, the surface of the print medium placed on the belt and the surface of the belt are detected to acquire the moving distance or moving speed of the print medium. Based on the moving distance or moving speed thus obtained, the driving of the belt is controlled. Even in a situation where the object being detected switches from the print medium to the belt in the middle of the conveying operation, the measurement of the moving distance can be performed without interruption by the same detection method using the same optical sensor unit.

摘要:
A conveyance mechanism includes a conveyance belt having a detection pattern containing a plurality of isolated patterns. The shape of the plurality of isolated patterns contained in the detection pattern, the size of a template area from which a template pattern is to be extracted, and the size of a seek area are associated with each other so that a part of the detection pattern contained in the template pattern extracted from first image data invariably serves as a unique pattern in the seek area of second image data.
