摘要 |
The present invention provides an ink jet printing apparatus configured to allow the ejection performance of a print head with a large number of nozzles densely arranged therein to be kept in a favorable condition by preliminary ejection and to enable degradation of images caused by the preliminary ejection to be alleviated. Preliminary ejection data generation unit is provided which generates preliminary ejection data designed to allow ink not contributing to image printing to be ejected through nozzles 103A and 103B in a print head 21-1. The preliminary ejection data generation unit generates preliminary ejection data designed to allow the ink to be preliminarily ejected onto a print medium through the nozzles 103B, which are included in the plural types of nozzles and which offer a smaller ejection amount than the other nozzles 103A.
