发明名称 Inkjet printer
摘要 A printer includes a recording head that ejects ink toward a recording medium, a first driving mechanism that moves the recording head in main scanning directions; a second driving mechanism that moves the recording head and the recording medium with respect to each other in sub scanning directions perpendicular to the main scanning directions; an input device that allows a user to input thereto printing information about printing time and image quality; and a control device that controls the recording head, the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism based on the printing information input to the input device. The printing information includes at least information about a pass number of the recording head. The input device allows the pass number to be changed continuously.

主权项 1. An inkjet printer, comprising: a recording head configured to eject ink toward a recording medium; a first driving mechanism configured to move the recording head in main scanning directions; a second driving mechanism configured to move the recording head and the recording medium with respect to each other in sub scanning directions perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the main scanning directions; an input device configured to allow a user to input thereto printing information about printing time and image quality; and a control device configured and programmed to control the recording head, the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism based on the printing information input to the input device; wherein the printing information includes at least information about a pass number of the recording head; the input device is configured to allow the pass number to be changed continuously; where one direction among the main scanning directions is a forth direction and the other direction opposite to the one direction among the main scanning directions is a return direction, the control device is configured and programmed to perform unidirectional printing in which the ink is ejected from the recording head while the recording head is moving in the forth direction, and bidirectional printing in which the ink is ejected from the recording head both while the recording head is moving in the forth direction and while the recording head is moving in the return direction; the printing information includes information about the unidirectional printing and the bidirectional printing, information about a resolution of printing and information about a scanning speed, which is a moving speed of the recording head in the main scanning directions; the input device is configured to allow the unidirectional printing to be switched to the bidirectional printing and allow the bidirectional printing to be switched to the unidirectional printing; and the input device is configured to allow the resolution and the scanning speed to be changed continuously.
