Abstract

A printing device having an ink ejecting manner enables flexibly controlling nozzle maintenance of nozzles that eject ink according to individual user needs. The printing device that prints by ejecting ink from nozzles, includes a user interface unit that receives configuration information related to a nozzle maintenance process of the nozzles; and a nozzle maintenance control unit that executes a nozzle check at a set nozzle check timing as the nozzle maintenance process when the configuration information includes information to execute a nozzle check, and information about the timing of the nozzle check to execute when a clogged nozzle having an ink ejection problem is detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inkjet printing device and the like, and more particularly to a printing device and the like capable of flexibly controlling nozzle maintenance of nozzles that eject ink to meet individual needs of users. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, an inkjet printer is used that ejects inks of various colors from nozzles to print on paper. In an inkjet printer, depending on the frequency of use, ink may become clogged in the nozzle, resulting in poor ink ejection, and nozzle maintenance processes such as cleaning and flushing are performed at predetermined timings. [0003] In this maintenance process, first, a nozzle check for detecting ink ejection failure from each nozzle is performed. [0004] Regarding this nozzle inspection, conventionally, the technology described in the following Patent Document 1, etc. have been proposed. In the printer control described in the following patent document 1, when printing ...
