Liquid ejecting apparatus and liquid ejecting method

摘要

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes (A) a carriage that moves a nozzle ejecting a liquid which is cured by irradiation of an electromagnetic wave in a moving direction, (B) a first irradiation section that is installed on the carriage and irradiates electromagnetic waves on dots formed by landing the liquid which is ejected from the moving nozzle, on a medium, and (C) a second irradiation section that is installed on the carriage and irradiates electromagnetic waves on the dots which are irradiated by the electromagnetic waves from the first irradiation section, in which an irradiance level of the electromagnetic waves from the second irradiation section is different from that of the electromagnetic waves from the first irradiation section.

主权项

1. A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising:
a head having a nozzle line, the nozzle line having a plurality of nozzles aligned in a first direction, the nozzles being configured to eject a liquid such that the liquid lands on a medium, the liquid being curable by electromagnetic waves; a first irradiation portion, configured to irradiate the liquid which has landed on the medium with the electromagnetic waves; a second irradiation portion, configured to irradiate the liquid which has irradiated by the first irradiation portion with the electromagnetic waves; and a carriage unit, configured to move the head, the first irradiation portion, and the second irradiation portion in a second direction transverse to the first direction; wherein the first irradiation portion has a first aspect ratio, and the second irradiation portion has a second aspect ratio different from the first aspect ratio.
