Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A recording head control method prevents head coil burnout caused by heat output while suppressing a drop in printer throughput. A control method for a recording head 18 of a dot impact printer 100 that prints information on a recording medium S by driving the recording wires 9 of a recording head 18 that has a plurality of recording wires 9 while a carriage 19 that carries the recording head 18 traverses the recording medium S, each of the recording wires 9 being allocated to printing one dot line in the scanning direction of the carriage 19 , the control method including steps of: during dot line printing, determining before printing if the number of previously defined specific dot patterns P 1 , P 2 contained in the dot line to be printed is greater than or equal to a reference number N of 2 or more; and printing the dot line based on the result of the decision.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A control method for a recording head of a dot impact printer that prints information on a recording medium by driving recording wires of a recording head that has a plurality of recording wires while a carriage that carries the recording head traverses the recording medium, each of the recording wires being allocated to printing one dot line in the scanning direction of the carriage, the control method comprising steps of: during dot line printing: setting…
