Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A printing method is performed by use of a printing device. The printing device includes a print head, a supply roll, a serving roll, a support roll, a feed roll, and a winding roll. The printing device feeds a fabric material toward the winding roll by a prescribed length each time that a cycle of a print operation is performed by the print head, so that the printing is performed on the fabric material intermittently. The printing method includes performing a first feed operation of intermittently rotating the feed roll by a first motor to pull the fabric material from a print unit and feed the fabric material toward the winding roll by a prescribed length; and performing a second feed operation of intermittingly rotating the serving roll by a second motor to feed the fabric material toward the print unit. A detected tensile force value based on a detected value of the tensile force of the fabric material detected at a position upstream with respect to the print unit is compared to a preset target tensile force, and the second motor is controlled based on a result of the comparison.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A printing method performed by use of a printing device usable for fabrics, the printing device including an inkjet print head that performs printing on a fabric material, a supply roll around which the fabric material is wound, a support roll that winds therearound the fabric material fed from the supply roll and guides the fabric material toward a position below the print head, a winding roll that is driven to rotate to wind therearound the fabric material…
