A liquid droplet discharge head includes: a liquid chamber including an inner wall; a plurality of nozzles on a part of the inner wall; a diaphragm to change a pressure inside the liquid chamber; a piezoelectric element to displace the diaphragm; a drive voltage generator to generate a pulse voltage for normal driving; a micro-drive voltage generator to generate a pulse voltage for micro-driving; a voltage applying means to apply a voltage waveform including each pulse voltage to the piezoelectric element; and a nozzle activation ratio processor to calculate a nozzle activation ratio based on drive data for discharging liquid droplets from the nozzle. Based on the nozzle activation ratio, the micro-drive voltage generator generates a pulse voltage for the micro-driving including a peak voltage corresponding to the nozzle activation ratio, and the voltage applying means applies an appropriate voltage waveform to the piezoelectric element. |
