Method for testing ejection, printing apparatus, method for forming ejection-test pattern, ejection-test pattern, computer-readable medium, and printing system

摘要

Ejection testing of a clear ink ejecting section is carried out easily. A first test pattern, which is used for testing ejection of a color ink ejecting section, is formed by ejecting a color ink onto a medium from the color ink ejecting section for ejecting color ink; and a second test pattern, which is used for testing ejection of a clear ink ejecting section, is formed by ejecting a clear ink from the clear ink ejecting section for ejecting clear ink to form a clear ink pattern on the medium, and ejecting a color ink from the color ink ejecting section to form a color ink pattern that overlaps the clear ink pattern. The resolution of the color ink pattern is different from the resolution of the first test pattern.
