An ink droplet ejecting method and apparatus are provided that are capable of effecting printing at a high resolution and a high quality, and at the same time capable of preventing a drop-out in white and a decrease of print density from occurring, for example, in printing a solid pattern. As a jet pulse signal, a pulse signal is used which, when ejection of ink is performed in a continuous manner, provides a small ink droplet for only a first dot, and large ink droplets for second and subsequent dots and which, when ejection of ink is performed intermittently at intervals of only one dot, provides small ink droplets for all of the ink droplets formed. As a result, a small print portion becomes attractive, and the resolution can be enhanced. Further, in the case of continuous dots, no gap is formed between adjacent dots.
