摘要： The present invention provides a technique that prevents a shift of a driving waveform due to accumulation of errors in a process of generating the driving waveform to drive driving elements on a print head. The technique of the present invention successively sums up a plurality of gradient data at a preset calculation period to give a result of summation and carries out digital-to-analog (D-A) conversion with regard to only specific upper columns in the result of summation in synchronism with the preset calculation period, so as to generate a driving waveform. Each gradient data represents a local gradient of the driving waveform and is stored in a memory. In the process of generating the driving waveform, the technique of the present invention corrects the result of summation to a preset value under a predetermined condition. One preferable embodiment clears specific lower bits in the result of summation in synchronism with a floor signal. Another preferable embodiment forcibly corrects the result of summation to an upper limit value or a lower limit value of a preset range when the result of summation exceeds the preset range. Such correction effectively cancels the potential effects of cumulative error on the driving waveform.

摘要： Described is an ink jet print head which prevents the generation of ink mist by supplying a signal to a piezoelectric vibrator (9) which causes a pressure generating chamber (3) to expand by a volume smaller than the volume expanded to jet out an ink droplet, when the vibration of the meniscus generated after jetting out an ink droplet moves to the position closest to the pressure generating chamber (3). When the vibration of the meniscus generated after jetting out an ink droplet goes to the nozzle hole (2), the pressure generating chamber (3) is expanded again, to effectively attenuate the kinetic energy of the meniscus and to hold the meniscus at a position suitable for jetting out the next ink droplet.
