Printing method, printing apparatus, computer-readable medium, and correction pattern

摘要

A printing apparatus comprises a movable print head having ink ejecting sections for ejecting ink to form dots. The apparatus can perform at least either printing with a first arrangement using inks arranged according to the first arrangement or printing with a second arrangement using inks arranged according to the second arrangement by changing the arrangement of inks supplied to each ink ejecting section; and print, with one forward and return movement of the print head, a correction pattern for determining a correction amount to be used for printing with the first arrangement and a correction amount to be used for printing with the second arrangement for correcting a misalignment between a position where dots are formed during a forward pass of the print head and a position where dots are formed during a return pass of the print head that occurs during printing with the first and second arrangements. <IMAGE>
