Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An inkjet printing apparatus is provided which minimizes the amount of inks consumed for preventing the sedimentation of ejected inks on the platen ink absorber and which can effectively prevent the sedimentation of inks. To this end, a comparison is made between the ejected volume of easily sedimenting inks and the ejected volume of sedimentation restraining inks in terms of ink components. If the ejected volume of the sedimentation restraining inks is found not enough, a required amount of sedimentation restraining ink is additionally ejected.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An inkjet printing apparatus comprising: a printing device having a first ink group and a second ink group, which prevents a sedimentation of the first ink group; a platen ink absorber configured to receive inks ejected from the printing device during a marginless printing; a counting device configured to count, for each of a plurality of regions into which the platen ink absorber is divided, ink volumes of the first ink group and the second ink group ej…
