- step S18 if it is determined in step S18 that the image data for the nozzle width of one head, which is the first half of the image data for the one band, is the image data of the first band, the MPU13 In step S21, it is determined whether or not the image data corresponding to the nozzle width of one head, which is the latter half, is a monochrome image data. If it is determined that the second half of the image data is monochrome image data, the MPU 131 further sets the image data for the next one-head nozzle width following the second half of the image data to monochrome. It is determined whether or not the image is over (S22).
- step S22 determines the first black print head 1 2a, and the second black print head for the image data for one band that has been determined in step S2.
- the black print head 1 2 a 2 prints.
- the image data of the first half of the color image data is stored in the color print heads 12 b! And 12 b in step S 19 or step S 27 described later.
- Printing with 2 , 12 b 3 has already been performed. In this case, first, while the carriage 11 moves from the home position to the return position, the first black print head 12 a, and the second black print head 12 a 2 are simultaneously driven, The forward direction printing is performed for the image data for one band (S23).
- step S22 the MPU 131 converts the color image data of the first half of the image data for one band that has been determined in step S2. for causing the printing to the second black print on head 12 a 2.
- the color image data of the first half, the color printing head 12 b In stearyl-up S 27 to step S 19 or below, 12 b 2, 12 b 3 by the printing has already been performed.
- step S25 first, while the carriage 1 1 is moved from the home position to the folded position, by a second head 12 a 2 only drive child to black printing, the color first image de Isseki of the first half Printing in the forward direction is performed (S25). Next, the carriage 11 is returned from the folded position to the home position. Thereafter, the print medium 2 is conveyed by the width of one head nozzle in the medium feed direction (S26), and the process proceeds to step S1.
- step S21 determines the second half of the image data is the same image data
- the MPU 131 determines the first band of the image data of step S2 for the image data of one band. head to second black print 12 a 2 and three color one printhead 12 b,, to perform printing on 12 b 2, 12 b 3.
- the color image data of the first half of the image de Isseki of those said one band, head 12 b from to one print,, 12 b 2, 12 b 3 by the printing has already been performed.
- step S1 first, between the carriage 1 1 you move from the home position to the folded position, head 12 b second to black print head 12 a 2 and the three color printing,, 1 2 b 2, by simultaneously driving the 12 b 3, the one band of color first image de - performing forward direction printing the evening (S 27). Next, return the carriage 11 from the folded position to the home position. Thereafter, the print medium 2 is conveyed along the medium feed direction by the width of one head nozzle (S28). Then, the process proceeds to step S1.
- the distance between the nozzle of the transport roller 15 and the head 12 a 2 to the second black printing, the first black and the conveying roller 15 It is much larger than the distance between the print head 12a and the nozzle. Therefore, when color image data for the nozzle width of 1 head is printed at the last end of the printable area of the print medium 2, the color print head 12 bt, 1 2b 2 , 12 b 3 , and if the last end is to be sent to the position of the second black print head 1 2 a 2 , the print medium 2 is separated from the transport roller 15. The second black print head at the end of the printable area 2 It is impossible to perform printing on a 12 a 2.
- the blank print heads 12b,, 1 2b,, 12b 3 perform printing, and then the print medium 2 is not conveyed.
- the above problem can be solved by causing the first black print head 12a, to perform printing.
- step S 1 MPU 1 31 is subjected to signal from the ink detection sensor 17, the case where the ink of the second black print head 1 2 a 2 is determined to ceased to.
- the first black print head 12 a, the three color Ichijirushi shaped head 12 b,, 12 b,, since only 12 b 3 can be driven, similar to the conventional printing operation is performed.
- the MPU 13 1 determines, based on the discrimination information sent from the image data interface 120, whether or not the image data for the nozzle width of the head is monochrome image data. (S29). In the case of monochrome image data, the MPU 131 causes the first black print head 12a, to perform printing for the image data for the nozzle width of one head.
- the first black print head 12a is driven, so that the image data for the nozzle width of the one head is driven.
- the outward printing is performed for one night (S30).
- a monochrome image corresponding to the nozzle width of one head is printed on the print medium 2.
- the print medium 2 is conveyed in the medium feed direction by the nozzle width of one head (S31), and the process proceeds to step S1.
- step S29 when it is determined that the image data for one head nozzle width is a color image data, the MPU 13 1 outputs the color data for the one head nozzle width.
- head 12 a on the image data to the first black printing, and the three color Printout head 12 b,, to perform printing individually 12 b 2, 12 b 3. That, or not a, while the carriage 1 1 is moved from the home position to the folded position, the three color one printhead 12 b,, by driving the 12 b 2, 12 b 3, performs forward path direction printing ( S 32). Thereafter, while the carriage 11 moves from the turn-back position to the home position, the first black print head 12a, is driven to perform the backward printing (S33). As a result, the force corresponding to the nozzle width of one head The color image is printed on print medium 2. Thereafter, the print medium 2 is conveyed in the medium feed direction by the width of one head nozzle (S34), and the process proceeds to step S1.
- the second black print head is displaced along the medium feeding direction with respect to the first black print head and the plurality of color print heads.
- the second black print head performs printing within one band so as not to overlap with printing by the first black print head or by multiple color print heads.
- the print engine control unit determines that the image data for one band is a second black print head and a plurality of color print heads. Prints high-quality images by reducing the chances that black ink and color ink will be printed simultaneously on adjacent portions by reducing ink printing and reducing ink bleeding. Can be.
