Abstract:
A recording apparatus includes an ink discharge part, a first drive part that drives a rotation of a roll body in which the recording medium is wound, a second drive part that drives the conveyance part that conveys the recording medium, and a control part that controls operations of the first drive part and the second drive part. The control part drives the first drive part in a halted state of the second drive part and executes a measurement that measures a relationship between a load and a drive speed when conveying the recording medium and the control part executes the measurement for a single rotation of the roll body. The control part also provides a first measurement mode to execute the single rotation which is divided into plural number.
Abstract:
A textile printing apparatus includes a liquid remaining amount grasping unit which grasps remaining amounts of respective two or more kinds of liquids, and a control unit which performs control of execution of printings onto a plurality of printed textile materials, the control unit has a control mode for, in advance of starting the execution of printings, specifying any print-executable printing specification from among the printing specifications on the basis of the remaining amounts of the respective liquids and the contents of the respective printing specifications, and then, starting execution of any printing based on the any print-executable printing specification having been specified.
Abstract:
A recording apparatus that uses photocurable ink includes an ink discharge section that discharges photocurable ink onto a printing medium, a light irradiation section that irradiates curing light onto the photocurable ink that has been discharged onto the printing medium, a tension application mechanism that applies tension to the printing medium and a control section. The control section discharges photocurable ink onto the printing medium by controlling the ink discharge section, and subsequently applies a tension, which is greater than that at the time of ink discharge, to the printing medium by controlling the tension application mechanism, and irradiates curing light onto the photocurable ink that has been discharged onto the printing medium by controlling the light irradiation section in a state in which the tension is being applied to the printing medium.
