Abstract
A recording system can take the form of a recording apparatus, a recording method or a program to control the recording apparatus for recording a color image on a recording medium by utilizing a recording head on which a plurality of recording elements are arranged. The recording system uses a plurality of compensation methods to compensate a position to be recorded by a recording element which does not execute a recording operation among the plurality of recording elements and selects an appropriate compensation method. Such recording system can resolve nonuniformity in the recorded image such as white streaks and the like generated by non-eject dots and can make the nonuniformity be unrecognized by the human eye. In addition, the recording system can suppress increase in costs of the recording head and can significantly increase recording rates.
