摘要： When three primary color inks and a particular color ink having a hue different from those of the three colors are used, the number of passes with regard to the same printing area is changeable, thereby speeding up a printing operation and improving color development at a gamut expressed by the particular color ink to achieve high quality images. Use or non-use of the particular color ink is switched according to the number of passes corresponding to quality information. If a high speed data generation processing is not required but sufficient color development is achieved, namely if the number of passes is large, the use of the particular color will expand the color reproduction gamut. If the high speed is required, namely if the number of passes is small, non-use of the particular color ink will reduce the number of colors of the usable inks.

摘要： The invention provides a configuration capable of judging whether an ink jet head is exchanged or whether it is replaced, and changing an amount of recovery operation when the ink jet head is exchanged or replaced. Thus a recording apparatus capable of avoiding a defective ink supply in case the ink jet head is exchanged or replaced, and not wasting the ink by unnecessarily excessive recovery operation, can be provided.

摘要： An ink jet printing apparatus includes a print head that is an array of a plurality of nozzles arranged according to each color of ink in a predetermined direction. The apparatus is provided with a plurality of print modes, each using a different number of colors of ink for printing. In a print mode using a smaller number of colors of ink for printing (e.g., a monochrome print mode) out of the plurality of print modes, a print method is adopted, in which an image of a predetermined area is formed by a greater print pass count than the print pass count for the predetermined area in a print mode using a greater number of colors of ink for printing (e.g., a color print mode).

摘要： An ink-jet printing method, an ink-jet printing apparatus and an ink-jet printing system, which are free from the deterioration of color development effect even if a plurality of color inks are used, caused by the overlap of different color inks on a printing medium, are proposed. For this purpose, when density data quantized to several ranks are converted finally to binary data by using predetermined dot arrangement patterns, a dot arrangement pattern different from those for other color inks is prepared for a particular color ink. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce as much as possible the probability that the particular color ink is overlapped with the other inks on the printing medium, whereby the color development of the particular color ink is effectively facilitated.

摘要： A plurality of ejection portions are divided into groups, each containing at least one ejection portion, so that the suction-based recovery operation can be performed for each group independently. Since the number of ejection portions contained in each group differs, if an ink flow resistance varies among the different groups, simultaneous suction-based recovery operations can be done by using a common suction pump, without having to sequentially perform the suction-based recovery operations under an optimum pump driving condition. For this purpose, inner diameters of a plurality of ink discharge tubes running from a plurality of cap units, which cap a plurality of print head units having different numbers of ejection portions, to the common pump are differentiated. This allows different flows to be produced in different ink discharge systems, thus generating desirable ink flows for individual ink supply systems.

摘要： In a printing apparatus which prints an image on a printing medium by alternately performing printing of an image on the printing medium by using a printing unit and conveyance of the printing medium relative to the printing unit, the conveyance amount in conveyance is corrected by using first and second parameters for correcting the conveyance amount in accordance with different factors. This makes it possible to correct the conveyance amount in accordance with the deviation of the printing position due to the different factors.

摘要： Printing can be properly performed on a print medium other than print media preset in accordance with print modes of a printer. Specifically, when the print medium other than the print media preset in accordance with the print modes is used, patches are printed on the print medium in each combination of the ink ejection amount and the number of passes, and information regarding each evaluation of granularity and banding based on colorimetry of the patches is obtained for each combination of the ink ejection amount and the number of passes. Next, a combination of the maximum ink ejection amount and the maximum number of passes is selected from the combinations that each evaluation of the granularity and the banding satisfies a certain level. Then, a print mode having a combination nearest the combination is selected from the plurality of print modes.

摘要： An apparatus and method of ink jet printing is provided that poor ejection less occurs even where making a printing on a printing medium ready to cause a paper powder, such as a fine art paper. An image is to be printed on a printing medium by performing a relative movement of a printing medium and a printing head having a plurality of arrays each having a plurality of ejection openings. On this occasion, the image is printed by using ejection openings in a number changed in accordance with a type of the printing medium, out of a plurality of ejection openings on the two arrays adjacent to each other.
