Abstract
A recording method in which dot omission pixels that are contiguous in a scanning direction due to defective nozzles included in a plurality of black nozzles and neighboring pixels that neighbor the dot omission pixels in a direction that intersects the scanning direction are included in a plurality of pixels that configure the printed image; and black ink droplets that form black dots for complement are discharged from the black nozzles to the neighboring pixels along with discharging color ink droplets that form the composite black dots for complement on the dot omission pixels from color nozzles when complementing the dots due to the defective nozzles.
