The present invention is described in further detail below with reference to fig. 1-12.
Example one
In one aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for adjusting driving waveforms at different temperatures based on a printed image, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
s1, acquiring a reference flying speed of the ink drop and a printed reference printing image when the nozzle is driven to jet the ink drop with the specified ink amount by adopting a preset driving waveform at the reference temperature for printing;
the preset driving waveform is generated at a reference temperature and corresponds to the temperature, and the preset waveform can be set according to ink provided by a manufacturer and a reference waveform given by a corresponding printing nozzle or according to a use habit. The printing effect of printing can be reflected visually by referring to the printed image and the flying speed of the reference ink drop during printing; that is, generally speaking, the reference value is selected to be the temperature closest to the room temperature, generally from 25 ℃ to 30 ℃, preferably 25 ℃, generally speaking, the waveforms of the ink and the print head working at the room temperature are more conventional, the printing effect is better, and the influence of other variable factors is less, therefore, the reference value is selected to be the reference value at the room temperature, and the printing effect of all the waveforms is improved. In the present embodiment, the designation of the ink volume means that the ink droplets of the ink volumes of the large, medium and small dots need to be printed according to the printing requirements, and different printing ink droplets need to be printed due to different printing requirements, so that the reference images of the ink droplets of the ink volumes of the large, medium and small dots need to be acquired correspondingly.
S2, acquiring a first flight speed of ink drops and a printed first print image when the preset drive waveform is adopted to drive the nozzle to jet the ink drops with the specified ink amount for printing at a first temperature;

S3, evaluating the image quality and the first flying speed of the first printed image according to the reference printed image and the reference flying speed to generate a preliminary evaluation result;
the printing effect at the reference temperature is obtained, and then the waveforms at different temperatures are debugged according to the printing effect, so that all the printing effects are consistent. When the waveform is debugged, relevant parameters of the waveform can be adjusted according to the change of the viscosity of the ink along with the change of the temperature, and the waveform with the same printing effect at different temperatures is formed.
S4, adjusting the preset driving waveform to generate an alternative driving waveform according to the preliminary evaluation result;
and generating a preliminary evaluation result according to the evaluation, and setting the printing alternative waveform.
S5, acquiring a second flying speed of the ink drop and a printed second print image when the nozzle is driven to eject the ink drop with the specified ink amount by adopting the alternative driving waveform at the first temperature for printing;

S6, evaluating the image quality and the second flying speed of the second printed image according to the reference printed image and the reference flying speed to generate an intermediate evaluation result;
and comparing the printed image printed at the first temperature by the different driving printing waveforms each time with the acquired second flying speed.
And S7, recording the alternative driving waveform as the designated driving waveform at the first temperature when the intermediate evaluation result meets the preset condition.
The preset condition may be that whether the printed images of the two are within a range of phase difference is evaluated, and the difference between the two flying speeds is also within a preset range, so that the printing effects of the waveforms at the two different temperatures are confirmed to be consistent, and then the waveforms with consistent printing effects are confirmed at the different temperatures.
In this embodiment, the printing effect of the preset driving waveform at a certain temperature is used as a reference value, and the waveforms at different temperatures are debugged according to the printing effect, so that the consistency of each printing effect is within a preset range, different waveforms are used for controlling printing at different temperatures, and the consistency of the printing effects at different temperatures is ensured. The invention not only emphasizes that all printing effects are good, but also more importantly, the printing effects at different temperatures are consistent. The technical problems that in the prior art, the printing effect of waveforms at different temperatures is far different in the printing process and the stability of actual production is influenced are solved. The printing effect under each temperature point is consistent along with the change of the temperature, thereby ensuring the production stability; the printing effect is consistent under different temperatures, and the printing effect of the final product is stable.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 2, the evaluating the image quality and the first flying speed of the first printed image according to the reference printed image and the reference flying speed, and generating a preliminary evaluation result includes:
s31, respectively acquiring printing fluency, printing precision, printing flying ink number and printing color gamut difference values of the reference printing image and the first printing image;
the flying speed of the ink drop is measured by introducing a waveform on an ink drop observer and testing the flying speed of the ink drop and the volume of the ink drop. The flying speed of the ink drop is determined by positioning an ink drop observer, and the distance between 100ms and 200ms after the ink drop is ejected from a nozzle plate of the nozzle is obtained, so that the flying speed of the ink drop is obtained. The test method is that firstly, an ink drop observer is used for observing ink jet of the nozzle, and the ink drop positioning is recorded at 100 ms. The drop placement is then recorded again at 200 ms. And finally, calculating the flying speed of the ink drop according to the moving distance of the ink drop in the time period of 100ms to 200 ms. The flying speed test at the reference temperature requires that the flying speed of the ink drop is within a normal controllable range, and the driving waveform is used as the first driving waveform which can be used at the temperature point. The volume and the shape of the ink drop can be acquired by a screen shot when the ink drop observer measures the ink drop.
The printing fluency test is to determine whether the ink meets the continuous printing requirement in the current environment under the normal working state of the printer. The specific steps comprise: before testing, firstly checking whether the states of the nozzles are all out, and recording a printing state strip. Aiming at the inks with different colors, different testing methods exist, and more specifically, aiming at the color inks, feathering in 6pass is used for printing four-color black with the total ink quantity of 1.2m multiplied by 1m for 3 times, and the recording and printing state strip and the surface area ink quantity of the nozzle plate of the nozzle are obtained. If the printing state is qualified, feather printing is carried out for 3 times by 6 passes to obtain 1.5m multiplied by 5m full ink volume four-color black, and the printing state strip and the surface area ink volume of the nozzle plate of the nozzle are rapidly obtained. For white ink, before testing, whether the states of the nozzles are all out is checked, and a printing state bar is recorded. And (4) using the total ink amount of 1.2m multiplied by 1m of the 6pass feathering and beating for 3 times to obtain the printing state strip and the surface area ink amount of the nozzle plate of the nozzle. And (3) feathering and beating the ink with the total ink amount of 1.5m multiplied by 5m for 3 times by 6pass to quickly obtain the ink amount of the surface area of the printing state strip and the nozzle plate of the nozzle. The color ink fluency test standard is that the color ink is printed for 3 times with the full ink volume and four color inks with the breadth of 1.2m multiplied by 1m, the number of broken lines of a channel is obtained, if the number of the broken lines is within 3, the color ink is judged to be qualified in terms of printing fluency, and the driving waveform is used as a first driving waveform which can be used at the temperature point. The white ink fluency test standard is that the printing breadth is 1.2m multiplied by 1m, the full ink amount is white for 3 times, the channel broken line number is obtained, if the broken line number of each channel is within 5, the fluency of the white ink is judged to be qualified, and the driving waveform is used as the first driving waveform which can be used under the temperature point.
The acquisition step of the number of the printing flying ink dots comprises the following steps: acquiring a local amplified color block image of the reference image; and acquiring the edge of the color block diagram, and judging whether the number of the ink flying dots exists or not. The method for acquiring the number of flying ink points comprises the following steps: and acquiring a printed 6pass color block diagram, and judging the number of ink flying points at the edge of the color block diagram. If the number of the flying ink dots is 0, the quality of the printing of the driving waveform is considered to be qualified, and the driving waveform is used as the first driving waveform which can be used at the temperature point.
The color gamut difference test means that the color representation of the printed color block is represented in a digitalized form by a Lab color model. The color gamut difference testing method comprises the following steps: checking whether the state of the spray head is normal; acquiring eight color patch images of 100% C, 100% M, 100% Y, 100% K, R, G, B and 100% CMYK which are respectively printed by adopting driving waveforms; then obtaining color gamut values corresponding to all the color block graphs; and calculating the difference value between the color gamut values corresponding to the color lump graphs as the color gamut difference value. The Lab values for the CMYK four colors at maximum ink volume can be recorded after the values are obtained using the i1Profile scan. If the color gamut testing standard is provided with a standard color sample, the color gamut difference value of the color blocks printed by the waveform is judged to meet the requirement if the delta E2000<1 of the standard color sample and the standard color sample exist, and the driving waveform is used as the first driving waveform which can be used at the temperature point.
S32, comparing the printing fluency, the printing precision, the number of printing flying ink dots and the printing color gamut difference value of the reference printing image and the first printing image; comparing the reference flying speed with a first flying speed;
and S33, generating a preliminary evaluation result.
In this embodiment, the 5 tests all reflect the hard index of the printing effect, and the 5 tests accurately reflect the whole printing effect by taking the printing as the evaluation standard. The general ink is evaluated from the 5 aspects, the 5 aspects test can better determine the reaction degree of the whole ink, and the driving waveform is used as the driving waveform which can be used at the temperature point only if the 5 reference standards pass the test.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 3, the adjusting the preset driving waveform to generate an alternative driving waveform according to the preliminary evaluation result includes:
s41, when the preliminary evaluation result does not meet the preset condition, adjusting at least one of the voltage, the period and the slope of the preset driving waveform;
and S42, generating an alternative driving waveform.
In the present embodiment, the waveform is adjusted according to the change in the printing effect; specifically, the change rule of the ink viscosity along with the change of the temperature can reflect the change of the printing effect; therefore, the voltage, the period and the slope of the waveform can be adjusted according to the change of the printing effect. For example, if deviation of printing precision occurs, the control voltage is adjusted up or down, if ink flying occurs, the driving pressure is not enough, the control voltage is adjusted up by a certain amount, and the specific amount needs to be adjusted according to the ink flying; of course, the voltage, the period and the slope of the driving waveform need to be adjusted simultaneously when necessary, so that the printing effect printed under the driving waveform meets the requirement.
Preferably, as shown in fig. 1, the acquiring a reference flying speed of an ink droplet when the nozzle is driven to eject the ink droplet of a specified ink amount at a reference temperature by using a preset driving waveform for printing and a printed reference print image includes:
s11, acquiring an initial printing image printed by adopting a preset driving waveform at a reference temperature and the flight speed of initial ink drops during printing;
specifically, the printing fluency, the printing precision, the number of printing flying ink dots and the printing color gamut difference value are obtained according to the printing image; the effect of printing the preset waveform at the reference temperature is in accordance with the preset effect, the good printing effect is ensured, and the printed picture is confirmed as the required reference picture.
S12, comparing the initial printing image with a preset printing image, and comparing the initial ink drop flying speed with a preset ink drop flying speed to generate a comparison result;
and S13, if the comparison result meets the preset requirement, taking the initial printing image as a reference printing image, and taking the initial flying speed as the reference flying speed.
Preferably, the reference temperature ranges are: 20-30 ℃.
In the present embodiment, waveforms at 15 ℃, 20 ℃, 30 ℃ and 35 ℃ are respectively debugged with the printing effect of the waveform at 25 ℃ as a reference; because the environment temperature is 15-35 ℃ for most of time, the temperature of the printing environment fluctuates at 15-35 ℃; the temperature in the range is selected, so that the printing has corresponding waveform control at different temperatures, and the printing effect is consistent when the printing is carried out at different temperature points.
The first temperature includes at least three different temperature points, and the first driving waveform corresponds to the first temperature.
In the present embodiment, two adjacent temperature points differ by 5 ℃. The reference temperature is set at 25 c and the selection of the reference may be closest to room temperature depending on the season and the environment. The range of the temperature points is set to be 15-35 ℃, and the difference between two adjacent temperature points is 5 ℃, because the ink has no obvious change in the range of 5 ℃, the printing effect of the ink cannot be too far apart; of course, in other embodiments, the difference between the two temperature points may be adjusted, and the size of the change of the parameters such as viscosity of the ink at different temperatures along with the change of the temperature is set according to the different types of the ink and the type of the print head.
Further, before acquiring a second flying speed of ink droplets when the nozzle is driven to eject the ink droplets of the specified ink volume for printing by adopting the alternative driving waveform at the first temperature and a printed second printing image, the method further comprises:
measuring the second flying speed, and determining the difference value between the second flying speed and the reference flying speed; and judging whether the difference value of the second flying speed and the reference flying speed accords with a preset range, wherein the difference value influences the flying speed of the ink drop generally comprises a driving waveform, and on the other hand, the nozzle is abnormal, so that the flying speed of the ink drop is influenced by the nozzle.
If the difference value is out of a preset range, determining the flight track of the ink drop; therefore, by determining whether the difference between the second flying speed and the reference flying speed is within the preset range, if not, it needs to be confirmed whether the waveform affects the flying speed or the nozzle abnormality affects the flying speed. Judging whether the nozzle is abnormal or not needs to judge the flight track of the ink drop, because the abnormal nozzle can influence the flight track of the ink drop under normal conditions, the flight track of the ink drop is determined; determining the flight trajectory of the drop includes determining an offset of the drop landing. The flight path of the ink drop is determined by confirming the offset of the ink drop.
When the flight track of the ink drop is inconsistent with a preset track, determining that the nozzle of the nozzle is abnormal; that is, it is determined that the amount of deviation of the landing position of the ink droplet is out of the preset range, it is considered that the nozzle is abnormal.
And selecting other nozzles of the sprayer as a second flying speed measuring object, and driving other nozzles of the sprayer to spray ink drops with the specified ink volume by adopting the alternative driving waveform at a first temperature for printing. Other nozzles means non-anomalous nozzles, i.e. nozzles that work normally; on the other hand, the nozzle having an abnormal condition can be corrected to a normal nozzle by correcting the nozzle, for example, determining whether the nozzle has an ink accumulation or not, and removing the ink accumulation from the nozzle. When the nozzle cannot be corrected in time, the normal ink jet can be selected as an object for obtaining the second flying speed measurement, that is, the second flying speed of the abnormal nozzle is obtained through discharge, and the flying speed of the normal nozzle is taken as the second flying speed; the problem that the flying speeds of two times of printing cannot be consistent due to abnormal nozzles is avoided, and further time is wasted because the proper waveform cannot be found by continuously debugging the waveform; has the advantage of facilitating rapid confirmation of the drive waveform.
Further, as shown in fig. 5, the method further includes: s8, acquiring first driving waveforms at all temperature points; drawing a driving waveform curve according to all the first driving waveforms; and storing the driving waveform curve.
In this embodiment, the waveform set according to the print effect is introduced into the board, and the waveform at each temperature node is calculated by the board to generate a waveform curve. The board card automatically calls the waveform at the corresponding temperature according to the detected temperature, so that the automatic temperature linkage waveform can detect the current temperature, and the board card calls the appropriate waveform; and then in the subsequent production of printing of being convenient for, when ambient temperature undulant great, the integrated circuit board can automatic identification, and the wave form is printed in the automatic call, does not need artifical detection ambient temperature's change and reset the wave form, is convenient for guarantee the continuity of printing when operational environment temperature undulant great, and has guaranteed the printing effect of whole printing in-process.
Preferably, with reference to fig. 4, after the step S8, the method further includes: respectively obtaining evaluation printing images and the flight speed of ink drops at a plurality of temperature points; and comparing whether the difference value between the reference printing image and the flying speed of the reference ink drop is in a preset range, and if so, defining the driving waveform curve as a printing waveform curve. When printing next time, directly calling the printing change waveform curve; if not, the waveform needs to be adjusted from the new one.
In the embodiment, four intermediate temperatures of 17.5 ℃, 22.5 ℃, 27.5 ℃ and 32.5 ℃ are selected, and a driving waveform curve is executed, namely, a waveform test is carried out at the intermediate temperature of two adjacent temperature points; acquiring printing images and ink drop flying speeds at the temperature points; similarly, the judgment basis of the printed image is printing fluency, printing precision, printing flying ink number and printing color gamut difference; comparing the printing effects of the four intermediate temperatures and other temperature nodes; on one hand, whether the whole driving waveform curve meets the requirement of consistent printing effect is verified, and on the other hand, whether the change of the ink at the phase difference of 2.5 ℃ can meet the consistency of the printing effect is verified.
