Abstract
【解決手段】記録ヘッドに備えられるヘッド基板上に、インク吐出を目的とした通常駆動パルスか吐出しない程度の短パルスかを示す識別符号が付与され、シリアライズされた制御パラメータを受信する受信手段を備える。さらに、そのヘッド基板上に受信した制御パラメータに基づき通常駆動パルスを生成する通常パルス生成手段と、受信した制御パラメータに基づき短パルスを生成する短パルス生成手段とを設ける。そして、制御パラメータの識別符号に応じて、通常駆動パルス又は短パルスのいずれかを出力するよう制御する。
【選択図】 図4
Description
なお、この明細書において、「記録」(以下、「プリント」とも称する)とは、文字、図形等有意の情報を形成する場合のみならず、有意無意を問わず、広く記録媒体上に画像、模様、パターン等を形成する、又は媒体の加工を行う場合も表すものとする。また、人間が視覚で知覚し得るように顕在化したものであるか否かを問わない。
この実施例の記録装置は、上述した記録動作や後述の記録データの生成に係る画像処理等を制御・実行するためのCPU213以外にも次の構成を備えている。即ち、ROM215、RAM214、ASICによりより構成される制御部(不図示)、外部のホストコンピュータ(以下、ホスト)201との間で記録データや各種制御情報をやり取りするためのインタフェース部(I/F)212である。さらに、機構部を構成するキャリッジ駆動用のキャリッジモータ(不図示)、給紙ローラ駆動用の給紙モータ(不図示)、搬送駆動用の搬送モータ等を駆動するためのモータドライバ(不図示)である。
