摘要:
The invention prevents inconveniences from being caused by ejection failure and unintended mixing of different colors. To this end, the invention performs preliminary ejection of ink after a wiping action to sweep mist adhering to a face of a printing head, in which an ejection opening is formed. Moreover, the amount of ink to be wastefully consumed by the preliminary ejection after the wiping is reduced. To this end, the number of preliminary ejections is regulated. The degree of adherence of mist to the ejection-opening-formed face depends on the amount of printing (the number of printed sheets, the number of ink ejections for printing, or the like). So, at the time of the preliminary ejection after the wiping, the number of ink ejections in the preliminary ejection is regulated in accordance with the amount of printing that has been done since the last wiping action.
摘要:
The present invention has an object to provide an inkjet printing apparatus that can realize both high quality image formation and improvement of a device life caused by the reduction of a mist amount of a processing liquid. The present invention is provided with a control unit that can independently control an ink ejection condition in an ink ejection unit and a processing-liquid ejection condition in a processing-liquid ejection unit. The control unit controls the ejection condition in each ejection unit so that the mist amount of the processing liquid ejected from the processing-liquid eject unit is smaller than that of the ink ejected from the ink eject unit.
摘要:
Suitable preliminary discharge conditions are set for a recording head using reaction liquid in bidirectional recording. While the recording head makes a reciprocating motion and scans a recording medium, a preliminary discharge of the reaction liquid is executed after recording on the recording medium from discharge ports on the rear side in a direction in which the recording head travels and a preliminary discharge of ink is executed when a preliminary discharge of the reaction liquid is not executed.

摘要:
In a print apparatus for performing a print by a scan of a print head with heaters generating thermal energy for ejecting ink, a temperature of the print head is detected before the scan of the print head, and when the detected temperature exceeds a threshold temperature, the print head is controlled to wait. Information relating to the cumulative number of drives of the heater in the print head is acquired and, based upon this information, the threshold temperature is changed to a lower temperature as the cumulative number of the drives increases. An excessive temperature rise of the head is restricted and also a throughput reduction is reduced as much as possible.

A recording apparatus includes a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a speed of ink discharged from a recording head, a second acquisition unit configured to acquire information relating to a speed change based on the speed acquired by the first acquisition unit and a reference speed; a setting unit configured to set driving information relating to the recording head based on the information relating to the speed change acquired by the second acquisition unit, and a drive unit configured to drive the recording head based on the driving information set by the setting unit.
摘要:
A printing apparatus, which includes a heating unit for heating a recording medium during printing, determines a pass number for multi-pass printing based on acquired information relating to the duty in each of a plurality of regions in one band of print region. The printing apparatus sets an amount of heat of the heating unit based on the acquired information.
