A liquid discharging apparatus includes a liquid container having an information storage portion configured to store information and a supply port for supplying liquid in the liquid container to the outside and a movable member having the liquid container attached thereon. After the connection between the supply port and the apparatus is severed while the movable member moves from a first position to a second position, information is written in the information storage portion. The second position is set such that the time required for the movable member to move from the first position to the second position is longer than or equal to the time required for the information communication.

An ink-jet printing apparatus and suction recovery control method which can minimize reduction in throughput while maintaining a printhead in the most appropriate condition, and can reduce the amount of wasted ink. According to the suction recovery control method, a printing period of predetermined printing operation is timed, and the number of print dots formed by discharging ink from a printhead during the predetermined printing operation is counted. Based on the timed printing period and counted number of print dots, the number of print dots per unit time is calculated. Then based on the calculated number of print dots per unit time, timing of suction recovery operation is determined, and suction recovery operation of the printhead is performed according to the determined timing.

A container for containing printing liquid for supplying to an ink jet head for an ink jet recording apparatus. The container includes a first chamber containing negative pressure producing material and having an air vent communicating with ambient air and a supply port for supplying printing liquid to the ink jet head. The container also includes a second chamber communicating with the first chamber via a communication port and providing a printing liquid reservoir for the first chamber. The capillary force provided by the negative pressure producing material adjacent a wall extending from the communication port and decreasing in a direction perpendicular to and towards the wall at least adjacent a part of the communication port which is uppermost in use of the container.

When performing at least one of preliminary ejection or a suction unit as a countermeasure against adhering ink that accumulates in the portion where preliminary ejection is performed, the preliminary ejection amount and suction speed of the suction unit are optimized. An inkjet print apparatus that prints by using a printing head for ejecting ink, comprising: an ejecting unit; a sucking unit; a measuring unit that measures an elapsed time after the sucking unit is performed; and a control unit that control ejection by the ejecting unit or sucking by the sucking unit according to the elapsed time measured in the measuring unit; wherein as the elapsed time becomes longer, the amount of ink that is ejected to the ink receiving unit in the ejecting unit is increased or a suction speed at which the ink is sucked in the sucking unit is increased.

An inner-pressure-changing connecting portion that changes the inner pressure of an ink cartridge and a fitted portion to be fitted on a positioning mechanism provided on an ink-jet printer are disposed coaxially. In a configuration for supplying ink by applying pressure to a pressure chamber, high-accuracy positioning of the ink cartridge and the ink-jet printer can be achieved.

An ink jet printing apparatus carrying out printing using a plurality of ejecting portions for ejecting different kinds of inks respectively, wherein a condition for wiping of an ejection face provided with ink ejection openings of a plurality of ejecting portions is appropriately determined and an defective ejection due to wet and dirty ejection face is effectively prevented. A timing of wiping is controlled considering an ink condition. Specifically, the timing of wiping is determined not simply based on a dot count value being a number of ejection carried out by a plurality of ejecting portions to perform printing, but also a condition of an amount of mist generated in accordance with ink types as well.
摘要:
To enable an ink jet printing apparatus to produce high quality images at all times from the initial stage of use until the end of its service life, the present invention provides an ink jet printing method for printing an image on a print medium by using a print head, in which the print head can eject ink supplied from an ink tank. The ink jet printing method includes an ink consumption detection step for detecting an amount of ink consumed in the ink tank, an ejection number detection step for detecting the number of ink ejections from the print head, an ink droplet volume calculation step for calculating an ink droplet volume based on the number of ink ejections from the print head and the ink consumption, and a control step for changing processing associated with a printing operation according to the ink droplet volume calculated by the calculation step.
摘要:
For the sake of achieving both the size and weight reductions of a printing apparatus and increasing the reliability thereof, an ink tank is provided with a gas-permeable member that permits air to pass without permitting ink. The ink tank is capable of introducing ink through an ink inlet by negative pressure introduced in the ink tank through a common suction port.
