摘要:
A printing paper is provided which is neutral paper as the base paper comprising an ink-penetration retarder on a printing face to retard penetration of liquid ink containing a nitrogen compound, a substance as an internal additive of the paper to absorb ammonia or an ammonium ion released from the nitrogen compound in the ink, and a water-soluble inorganic salt in an amount ranging from 0.01 to 0.2% by weight. Printing methods are also provided which use the above printing paper.
摘要:
An image recording apparatus records an image on a recording medium by causing a recording head having an arrangement of a plurality of recording elements to conduct its main scanning for the recording medium interrelatedly in the direction opposite to the arrangement of the recording elements. The apparatus comprises a setting device to set the number of main scannings by the recording head; a main scanning device to perform recording by plural numbers of main scannings with respect to one pixel by causing the recording head to conduct its main scannings for the same recording area of the recording medium in accordance with the number set by the setting device; and a sub-scanning device to cause the recording head and the recording medium to be sub-scanned interrelatedly per main scanning in an amount smaller than the width of the arrangement of the recording elements of the recording head. Hence, even if a disabled ejection occurs in one scanning at the time of recording by a multi-scanning, the missing dot is complemented by the following scan to make it possible to obtain an image having no image defects at all times.
摘要:
An ink jet textile printing method forms an image on cloths in an image forming operation by repeating a step of applying ink on the cloths from an ink discharge port of a recording head, the recording head relatively main-scanning to form the image in a main scan direction, and a step of relatively conveying the cloths in a sub-scan direction. The method includes the steps of forming the image on the cloths by applying ink on the cloths from the recording head based on image data. The method further includes the step of temporarily stopping the image forming operation in accordance with an indication to effect a temporary halt of the image forming operation. When the temporary halt is indicated while the recording head performs a main scan in the image forming operation, the image forming operation by the main scan is completed, and then the temporary halt of the image forming operation is effected by moving the recording head to a standby position. The method still further includes the step of releasing the temporary halt of the image forming operation and restarting the image forming operation in accordance with an indication for releasing the temporary halt of the image forming operation. When the release of the temporary halt is indicated, ink is discharged from the ink discharge port and then the image forming operation is restarted.
摘要:
An image recording apparatus for recording an image in accordance with input image data supplied thereto using a recording head having a plurality of recording elements arranged thereon. The apparatus includes a sensor for detecting and determining non-uniformity of the densities of the records provided by the respective recording elements, at predetermined timing in image recording operations, and adjusting means for adjusting driving signals applied to the respective recording heads in response to an output of sensor.
摘要:
An image recording apparatus for moving, relatively to a cloth recording medium, a recording head for discharging ink so as to record an image. The image recording apparatus is arranged such that the operation conditions of the recording head can be changed at the time of the recording operation in accordance with the thickness of the cloth, or the diameter of the fiber or the pitch of weaving the fiber of the cloth, so that the quantity of ink to be supplied to the cloth to record an image is controlled so that a high quality recorded image can be obtained regardless of the type of the cloth.
摘要:
A recording apparatus for recording an image, by a recording device, on a recording medium having been conveyed to a position opposite to the recording device. The apparatus comprises a conveyor for conveying the recording medium to a recording region where a platen is disposed, a detector for detecting a floating amount and/or a floating angle of the recording medium with respect to the platen, and a selector for selecting either a first mode to continue the recording operation by varying the distance between the recording device and the recording medium in accordance with the detected result of the detector or a second mode to stop the recording operation. According to such a recording apparatus, it is possible to perform a high-quality recording operation since the distance between the recording head and the recording medium can be kept optimum.
摘要:
An ink jet apparatus has an ink jet head with a heat generating resistance element, which head discharges ink droplets by causing a state change in ink using heat generated by the resistance element, conveying means for conveying a recording medium to be recorded upon in a conveyance direction so that a predetermined recording image is formed on the recording medium by ink droplets from the head, heat exchanging means for exchanging heat with the head, this exchanging means being attached to the side of the head where the element is provided, and heating means for heating the exchanging means, the heating means being part of the heat exchanging means. It also includes a cooling means for cooling the heat exchanging means, temperature detecting means for detecting the temperature of the heat exchanging means, and control means for controlling driving of the heating means and cooling means according to the temperature detected by the temperature detecting means. The head to which the heat exchanging means is attached is joined to the apparatus so that the heat exchanging means is positioned at a downstream side in the conveyance direction of the recording medium.
摘要:
There is disclosed an image forming apparatus for recording an original image read by a reading unit on a recording medium uses a recording head having an array of a plurality of recording elements. The apparatus includes pattern forming unit for forming, on the recording medium, a test pattern having an area larger than an array range of the plurality of recording elements using the recording head in accordance with a predetermined operation, a detection unit for causing the reading unit to read the test pattern formed on the recording medium by the pattern forming unit in accordance with a predetermined operation, and detecting a density distribution within the array range of the plurality of recording elements, a generation unit for generating correction data of a drive condition for uniforming a density during image formation on the basis of the density distribution detected by the detection unit in correspondence with the plurality of recording elements, and a guide unit for display the predetermined operations on a display unit.
