Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, when the print head is moved from the printing position in order to eject waste ink, it takes time for moving the print head
Therefore, high-speed printing will be hindered
Especially when performing continuous printing of multiple printing areas, when performing long printing, waste ink needs to be ejected many times during printing, so the printing time increases significantly

Embodiment Construction

[0034] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, the same code|symbol is attached|subjected to the same or equivalent part in a drawing.

[0035] figure 1 The internal structure of the printing apparatus 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is shown. The printing device 1 is equipped with a figure 1 structure shown.

[0036] The printing device 1 is a so-called inkjet printer, which prints a print pattern including a drawing or a character pattern on a long print medium by making ink into droplets and spraying directly on the print medium (recording medium). ink-based label printer.

[0037] In addition, in figure 1 The X direction shown in is the direction in which the tape member 3 is conveyed. The Y direction is the width direction of the conveyed tape member 3 . The Z direction is the direction in which ink is ejected from the print head to the tape member 3 . The settings of t...

Abstract

The invention provides a printing apparatus and a printing method. In the printing control method of the printing apparatus including a control unit, the following operations are performed through the control unit: setting a plurality of first regions arranged in the first direction on a conveyed print medium based on the print data and a second region between adjacent two first regions in the plurality of first regions; and ejecting ink from a print head in the plurality of first regions based on the print data and ejecting ink from the print head in the second region determined based on an index value, wherein the index value is used to predict the ejection failure of the ink of the print head.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Art [0002] This application is based on and enjoys the benefit of priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-124278 filed on June 19, 2015; the entire contents of which are incorporated in this application by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a printing device and a printing method. Background technique [0004] There is known an inkjet type printing device that performs printing by ejecting ink from a printhead onto a printing medium. In an inkjet printing device, when the ink in the plurality of nozzles provided on the print head is exposed to the air, the ink hardens or solidifies due to drying or thickening of the ink, which causes nozzle clogging. When the nozzles are clogged, ink cannot be ejected normally from the nozzles, resulting in reduced print quality. [0005] In order to prevent the ink in the nozzles from being exposed to the air, when not printing (while waiting for printing), the nozzle...
