    Abstract: A jet parameter generation system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a data acquisition section, and a parameter generation section for generating a predetermined jet parameter, using a predetermined analytical method of taking a predetermined input parameter as an explanatory variable and taking a predetermined jet parameter as an objective variable. The parameter generation section determines which one of a first standard for setting a voltage value with which a drop volume of the liquid to be a reference is obtained and a second standard for setting a voltage value with which an ejection speed of the liquid to be a reference is obtained is to be selected, selects a first explanatory variable group when determining to select the first standard, while selecting a second explanatory variable group when determined to select the second standard, and uses the predetermined analytical method using just selected one of the first explanatory variable group and the second explanatory variable group to thereby generate the predetermined jet parameter.
