Liquid ejecting apparatus and liquid ejecting method

摘要

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a first carriage movement mode, in which a stop position of a carriage in movement of this time is determined to be at a given position in a width direction on the basis of a size in the width direction of a liquid-ejected medium, and a second carriage movement mode, in which the stop position of the carriage in the movement of this time is determined on the basis of at least one of the liquid ejection data in the movement of this time or the liquid ejection data in the movement of the next time, and liquid ejection is carried out with one of the first carriage movement mode and the second carriage movement mode selected in accordance with the type of liquid-ejected medium.

主权项

1. A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising:
a liquid ejecting head which has nozzles and ejects liquid from the nozzles onto a liquid-ejected medium on the basis of liquid ejection data; a carriage which carries the liquid ejecting head and moves in the width direction of the liquid-ejected medium; and a control section which has a first carriage movement mode which determines a stop position of the carriage in this movement where the nozzles and a side end in the width direction of the liquid-ejected medium do not face each other, and a second carriage movement mode which determines a stop position of the carriage in this movement including the position where the nozzles and a side end in the width direction of the liquid-ejected medium face each other, wherein the control section selects the first carriage movement mode in a case where a first type of medium is selected as the liquid-ejected medium, and the control section selects the second carriage movement mode in a case where a second type of medium is selected as the liquid-ejected medium, wherein in the second carriage movement mode, the stop position of the carriage is determined without regard to a size in a width direction of the liquid-ejected medium.
