LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS

摘要

When a power supply mode is an AC power mode, if a correction value which is read out from a non-volatile memory is a second correction value α2 corresponding to a battery mode, a first correction value α1 is calculated according to an equation α1=α2×K2 using the second correction value α2, and bidirectional printing is performed by controlling an ejection timing of a print head based on the first correction value α1. Meanwhile, when a power supply mode is the battery mode, if the correction value is the first correction value α1 corresponding to the AC power mode, the second correction value α2 is calculated according to an equation α2=α1×K1 using the first correction value α1, and bidirectional printing is performed by controlling the ejection timing of the print head based on the second correction value α2.

1. A liquid ejecting apparatus, comprising:
a liquid ejecting head which is capable of ejecting a liquid; a carriage which is capable of moving reciprocally in a scanning direction which intersects a transport direction of a medium; a control unit which causes the liquid ejecting apparatus to perform bidirectional printing by causing the carriage to move reciprocally in a plurality of speed modes in which an ejection mode of the liquid ejecting head is the same and a movement speed of the carriage is different, and causing the liquid to be ejected from a nozzle of the liquid ejecting head in both an outward motion and a return motion of the carriage; a correction value acquisition unit which performs the bidirectional printing of a test pattern using a correction value which corresponds to one speed mode of the plurality of speed modes, acquires a correction value based on a printed result of the test pattern, and stores correction information containing information of the speed mode of when the test pattern is printed and the correction value in a storage unit; and a correction unit which corrects an ejection timing of the liquid ejecting head according to the speed mode which is applied based on the correction information.
