Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a multifunctional printer which provides both monochromatic print and full-color print by installing a registering head for black ink printing and a registering head for color ink printing and selecting the head part to be used by a printing control part in printing mode for printing. CONSTITUTION:A printing control part outputs a nozzle selection control signal 37 so that only trains of nozzles for black ink printing 61-63 for black ink printing, when a device is set to a monochromatic printing mode. In addition, the printing control part outputs a printing speed control signal 39 so that printing is performed at three times the speed of color printing mode, as three trains of the nozzles 61-63 are provided. At that time, the nozzle selection control signal 37 controls ink discharge control at appropriate timing in accordance with the interval between the nozzle trains on a recording head 6 in such a manner that ink droplets are used to form 16 dots per 1mm stretch in the scan direction. When the color printing mode is applied, trains of nozzles for color ink printing 64-66, and if black ink is used, 128 nozzles of the nozzle train for black ink printing 63 are employed. Further, image information 35 is allowed to undergo image processing and then is stored in a line memory 34 for printing.
