Abstract

Banding has been prone to take place as regards black ink. Nozzle columns for color inks are arranged side by side in a direction in which a medium is conveyed, and are allocated to each color, and an amount of the medium equivalent to the length of the nozzle columns of each of the colors among the nozzle columns for the color inks is fed, to print on a forward path and return path from the nozzle columns for the color inks. As such, by repeatedly printing 100% of the total number of dots on every single scan for the color inks, the corresponding print region is covered.
