An ink drop let jetting method and an apparatus are provided to easily and arbitrarily control a volume of ink droplets without changing the voltage value of a jet pulse. Thus, printing with a desired resolution may be achieved. When the volume of ink droplets (or printing density) is increased, the printing frequency of a timing period of the jet pulse is set to a reciprocal of an even-numbered multiple of the time T in which a pressure wave propagates within an ink chamber in one-way. Also, when the volume of ink droplets is decreased, the printing frequency is set to a reciprocal of an odd-numbered multiple of the time T in which a pressure wave propagates within an ink chamber in one-way. Alternatively, printing is executed at intermediate frequencies. According to this method, it becomes possible to print dots with an arbitrary resolution.
