A liquid discharging apparatus, having a liquid discharging head, a relatively-movable device, and a controller, is provided. The controller controls the liquid discharging head and the relatively-movable device to record a plurality of relative movement adjuster patterns, arranged at different positions in an arrayed direction, and a different pattern, arranged side by side with the plurality of relative movement adjuster patterns along a direction orthogonal to an arrayed direction on a same liquid-discharge objective medium. The controller controls the relatively-movable device, after recording at least one of the plurality of relative movement adjuster patterns, and before recording a next one of the plurality of relative movement adjuster patterns next to the at least one of the plurality of relative movement adjuster patterns, to perform a relative moving action by a moving amount different from a predetermined relative moving amount for recording the different pattern at least once.

A droplet discharging apparatus (10) includes a supporting section (20) including a supporting surface (21) that supports a medium M, a first head (81) including a first nozzle that discharges first liquid onto the medium supported by the supporting surface (21), a second head (82) including a second nozzle that discharges second liquid that promotes curing of the first liquid by reacting with the first liquid onto the medium M supported by the supporting surface (21), a carriage (83) that reciprocally travels in a width direction while holding the first head (81) and the second head (82), an air sending section (70) that generates airflow in the front direction in an discharging area facing the supporting surface, and a shielding section (85) that shields the airflow in the front direction in the discharging area R1.

An inkjet recording apparatus and an inkjet recording method are provided that facilitate designing of units for subsequent treatment in terms of their shapes and/or positions, while suppressing variability in image quality resulting from subsequent treatment. Two or more recording heads are disposed in a staggered arrangement in X and Y directions. The paired units for subsequent treatment are disposed in parallel to each other along the X direction, and the recording heads are interposed between these units. The length of each of the units for subsequent treatment in the X direction is greater than or equal to the ink-dischargeable extent in the X direction of the recording heads in one scan. The recording heads are arranged, so that nozzle groups, from which the droplets of the same color are discharged, are disposed symmetrically with respect to an intermediary line between the paired units for subsequent treatment.

A liquid ejecting device includes a head configured to eject liquid, a holding unit holding the head, a base unit holding the holding unit, a guide unit movably holding the base unit, the guide unit being configured to guide the base unit, and a detection unit attached to the base unit, the detection unit being configured to detect vibration of the base unit, in which the base unit includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the guide unit is attached to the first surface, and the detection unit is attached to at least one of the first surface and the second surface.

An inkjet printing apparatus comprises a frame, an inkjet head disposed on the frame, a first probe disposed on the frame, arranged at a side of the inkjet head, and providing a first voltage, and a second probe disposed on the frame, arranged at another side of the inkjet head, and providing a second voltage.

A printing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a biasing member that applies a force in a −Y direction, a motor supporting member including a reference surface and an inclined surface inclined so that a distance between the reference surface and the inclined surface gradually decreases in the −Y direction, and a motor including an abutting member configured to abut on the reference surface and the inclined surface. By applying the force in the −Y direction from the biasing member to the motor, the abutting member abuts on the reference surface and the inclined surface.

A recording apparatus includes an ink tank, a carriage, a recording head mounted on the carriage, a carriage control unit, and a supply tube connected to the recording head and the ink tank and including a bent portion that moves with carriage movement. The carriage control unit moves the carriage in predetermined directions to record on a recording medium. Assuming that, of an acceleration/deceleration area of a carriage moving area, an area in which pressure changes to decrease negative pressure in the recording head is a first area, and an area in which the pressure changes to increase the negative pressure in the recording head is a second area, the carriage control unit moves the carriage so that an absolute value of acceleration or deceleration of the carriage in the first area is less than an absolute value of acceleration or deceleration of the carriage in the second area.

A printing device including: a print head which performs printing on a printing area in a first nail of a finger or a toe and next performs printing on a printing area in a second nail of a finger or a toe; a mover which moves the print head; and a processor. The processor sets a printing start position in the second nail in response to a printing end position of the printing area in the first nail, the printing start position in the second nail being at a side closer to either a nail tip-side end or a root-side end of the printing area in the second nail, and controls the print head and the mover to perform the printing on the printing area in the second nail from the printing start position in the second nail after the printing is finished for the first nail.

A liquid-printing apparatus, having a conveyer, a printing head, a liquid storage, a carriage, a scanning assembly, a remaining amount detector, and a controller, is provided. The printing head prints an image in a printing area ranging from a print-start position to a print-finish position along a scanning direction. The scanning assembly performs pass actions to move the carriage from a scan-start position to a scan-terminal position along the scanning direction. The remaining amount detector detects an amount of the liquid in the liquid storage. The controller controls the scanning assembly to perform a first pass action in a setting such that the scan-terminal position for the first pass action is separated farther in the scanning direction, in proportion to largeness of the amount of the liquid in the liquid storage, from one of the printing area for the first pass action and the printing area for a second pass action.

An inkjet printer includes a support member configured to support a recording medium moving in a first direction, a carriage configured to reciprocate in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and provided with a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact, a first recording head mounted on the carriage so as to contact the first electrical contact and configured to reciprocate together with the carriage, and an electrical contact protection member mounted on the carriage so as to contact the second electrical contact and configured to reciprocate together with the carriage. A shortest distance between the electrical contact protection member mounted on the carriage and the support member in a third direction is greater than a shortest distance between the first recording head mounted on the carriage and the support member in the third direction, the third direction being orthogonal to the first and second directions.
