    摘要: An image formation device has a head including plural first nozzle holes and plural second nozzle holes to eject an ink. In a first ejection processing, the head ejects a second ink from the first predetermined number and a second predetermined number of the second nozzle holes while moving in a main scan direction. The head moves in a sub scan direction by a first distance of a non-integral multiple of a distance between the adjacent first nozzle holes. The head ejects the second ink from the second nozzle holes while moving in the main scan direction. The head moves from the position of the head after the first ejection processing in the sub scan direction by a second distance of a length of a section over which the first predetermined number of the first nozzle holes are arranged. The head ejects the second ink from the second nozzle holes.

    摘要: An image formation device includes a plurality of nozzles arranged in a sub scan direction and configured to eject ink, a processor, and a memory configured to store computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, perform processes including, performing a determination control configured to determine whether an unstable ejection condition, under which the ejection of the ink from the nozzles becomes unstable, is satisfied, and performing a first print control configured to cause printing to be performed by a multi-pass method when it is determined that the unstable ejection condition is satisfied.

    摘要: Provided is the image formation device which suppresses an occurrence of unevenness in density of the image and a time required to form the image. The image formation device forms images by moving the different ejection heads. One of the ejection heads ejects white ink from a first predetermined number of nozzles thereof. Another one of the ejection heads ejects color ink from the first predetermined number and a second predetermined number of nozzles thereof. The ejection heads that eject color ink move in a sub scan direction that is non-integral multiple of a distance between the adjacent nozzle holes and eject the color ink, and then move in the sub scan direction that corresponds to a length in the sub scan direction of an area of the ejection head in which the first predetermined number of the nozzles are arranged and eject the color ink.

    摘要: An image formation device includes a plurality of nozzles, a processor which forms an image on the basis of print data, and a memory which stores computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, perform processes including, performing first ejection control which ejects a first amount of the ink at a timing of one of a forward path and a return path in the main scan direction, when printing is performed by a multi-pass method in which each of pixel arrays is printed by a plurality of main scans and, in each of the plurality of main scans, the ink is ejected onto the same pixel array from the respectively different nozzles, and performing second ejection control configured to eject a second amount of the ink at a timing different from the previous timing of the ejection of the ink, the second amount being smaller than the first amount.

    摘要: Original print data includes ejection information to form a plurality of pixel arrays each including pixels arranged in a first direction. A plurality of divided print data are generated based on the ejection information included in the original print data. At least one of divided print data includes the ejection information to form a first pixel array and a second pixel array, not a third pixel array. The second pixel array is included in the plurality of pixel arrays aligned in a second direction corresponding to the original print data and is not adjacent to the first pixel array in the second direction. The third pixel array is included in the plurality of pixel arrays aligned in the second direction corresponding to the original print data, and is between the first pixel array and the second pixel array in the second direction and adjacent to the first pixel array.
