This invention determines the output timing of the injection command signal to each of the injectors so that the fuel injection timing agrees with the basic target injection timing even when there are variations in the fuel injection timing among the injectors, and thereby improves the exhaust emission performance of the engine. The time T2 of an intersection between the straight line Lp representing an average Pa of the common rail pressure before it starts to fall and the first-degree approximation straight line Ld having a maximum inclination of fall of the common rail pressure is determined as the timing at which the common rail pressure starts to fall. Based on the time T2 and the average pressure Pa, the delay time DELTA Td which elapses from the output timing T0 of the injection command signal to each of the injectors to the actual fuel injection timing T1 is calculated. The output timing T0 for the injection command signal is determined as an instant the delay time DELTA Td before the basic target injection timing Tb, which is determined from the operating state.
