PURPOSE:To provide a regulating method capable of correcting the lateral shear among respective head units, by a method wherein codes for regulating the lateral shear among respective head units are added to data sent from a host computer, which are recognized as data including the codes on the printer side. CONSTITUTION:The data put into respective memories 12A-12D from a host computer 10 are sent to head units 1A-1D corresponding thereto and the recording is carried out by driving respective head units on the basis thereof. When respective color data stored in the data memories 12A-12D are sent to respective head units 1A-1D, the lateral shear among respective head units is corrected by regulating the read position of the data memory. For instance, if the head unit 1B of magenta is laterally lagged by 4 dot contents (lateral shear delta) leftward to a reference position S, though respective data of yellow, cyan, and black are sent out from reference read positions, the color data of magenta is sent out from a position lagged by 4 dots in the DT direction from the reference read position. |
