A printer is disclosed. The printer is calibrated for use with colored media. The printer is calibrated by converting an original color look up table (CLUT) for use on any colored media to a modified CLUT for use on colored media with a measured color. Each of a plurality of output colors in the original CLUT are modified using the measured color of the media.

An image forming apparatus is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a recording head to discharge a liquid on a recording medium while scanning in a main scanning direction and a sub-scanning direction relative to the recording medium. The recording head includes a first nozzle array and a second nozzle array. The first nozzle array discharges the liquid in a first discharge amount per unit time per unit length in a longitudinal direction. The second nozzle array discharges the liquid in a second discharge amount per unit time per unit length in the longitudinal direction. The second nozzle array is shorter than the first nozzle array in the longitudinal direction and disposed not overlapped with the first nozzle array in the main scanning direction. The second discharge amount is larger than the first discharge amount.

A printed material has a transparent base member, a first image layer formed on the base member, an intermediate layer formed on the first image layer, and a second image layer formed on the intermediate layer. The intermediate layer has a lower white background layer positioned above the first image layer, a light blocking layer positioned above the lower white background layer, and an upper white background layer positioned above the light blocking layer. In the printed material, a thickness of the light blocking layer is uneven in conformity with undulation of the first image layer, and therefore a surface of the intermediate layer which is in contact with the second image layer is flat. With this structure, it is possible to prevent or suppress the undulation of the first image layer from appearing in the second image layer.

A method for printing an object using a color image printer is provided. The printer applies colorant dots having a flat shape. The object has an apparent surface with a locally varying color for representing a color image on the surface. The printer comprises a white colorant, that is applied as a background underneath a surface colorant for begetting a local color of the apparent surface. The invented method comprises the steps of: generating two-dimensional image data for composing the object in slices; determining a local surface orientation of the apparent surface of the object; and applying colorant material in accordance with the two-dimensional image data, wherein, in dependence on the local surface orientation, white colorant dots are deposited between other colorant dots to compensate a color effect of an orientation of a surface colorant dot relative to the local surface orientation.

Novel inkjet ink compositions for forming an image in a form of an elastic film attached to a surface of a stretchable and/or flexible substrate and processes utilizing same for inkjet printing color images on various substrates such as colored and absorptive or impregnable stretchable materials, which are characterized by heightened efficiency in process time, ink and energy consumption, as well as products having durable, wash-fast and abrasion-fast images printed thereon by the process, are disclosed. The novel ink compositions comprise a first part, which contains a property-adjusting agent and a carrier, and a second part which contains an emulsified property-sensitive proto-elastomeric film-forming agent, a colorant and a carrier, such that the second part congeals upon contact with the property-adjusting agent. The second part is digitally applied to the substrate less than 1 second following the application of the first part to the substrate.

A print device includes a head, a recovery portion, a processor, and a memory. The head is configured to eject a first ink for base printing and a second ink for image printing. The first ink is ejected onto a print medium and the second ink is ejected on the base printing to print image printing. The recovery portion is configured to perform recovery processing. The recovery processing recovers an ejection performance of the first ink of the head. The memory stores computer-readable instructions. When the computer-readable instructions are executed by the processor, the processor acquires an integrated value of an ejection amount of the first ink. And the processor also determines, based on the acquired integrated value, whether to perform the recovery processing by the recovery portion.

A control apparatus configured to control a forming apparatus which forms concavo-convex structure by ejecting ink obtains concavo-convex data indicating the concavo-convex to be formed and divide the concavo-convex data into a plurality of pieces of data. The control apparatus controls a formation order, performed by the forming apparatus, of the concavo-convex portions each corresponding to the plurality of pieces of data divided by the dividing unit based on a feature amount of the concavo-convex indicated by the concavo-convex data.
