Abstract
An electromagnetic irradiation device is provided. The electromagnetic irradiation device includes an irradiator which irradiates droplets that are attached to a recording medium with an electromagnetic wave, an irradiation control unit which causes the irradiator to periodically irradiate the attached droplets with the electromagnetic, and a frequency setting unit which sets a frequency of an irradiation period which is a period during which the irradiator is caused to emit the electromagnetic wave. The period may be set to be equal to or greater than 5 Hz, and less than 1000 Hz.
