PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that when an alternate driving method by which a plurality of nozzle groups are alternately made to discharge within a driving period in order to shorten a period of time required for a preliminary discharge is executed, a poor discharge may be invited by the vibration of a meniscus depending on a frequency of discharges in a head having a plurality of nozzle groups for which total ink quantities being discharged at the time of driving are different such as a nozzle for large liquid droplets and a nozzle for small liquid droplets. SOLUTION: The alternate driving method which alternately drives different nozzle groups, and a method which drives different nozzle groups in order are made selectable. Also, a toggle driving method and the method which drives nozzles in order are executed by selecting one of them depending on the motion of the preliminary discharge. By this constitution, this inkjet recording device having a high reliability is provided. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
