Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in such a configuration, in order to strictly and accurately measure the shape of the printed object such as the nail, the size of the device will increase.
[0008] In addition, since a unit for calculating and digitizing information acquired by a camera or the like is required, the cost of the device increases.
[0009] In addition, since the processing time required for measurement and calculation processing is large, the time required for printing processing becomes longer, and the usability deteriorates.

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0054] First, a first embodiment of a printing apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0055] Here, the printing device of the present invention is a printing device that prints on a printing object having a curved printing surface. This printing device has a recording head that ejects ink droplets to print on a surface to be printed.

[0056] Moreover, the printing device is a device for printing on a printing target surface having a convex curved shape of a printing target object, wherein the distance between the ink ejection surface of the recording head in the ink ejection direction and the printing target surface is within The central part in the width direction is small, and it becomes larger toward the end parts in the width direction.

[0057] By printing with the printing device of this embodiment, even if the printing target surface of the printing target object is not a flat surface but, for example, the left...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0303] Next, a second embodiment of the printing apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0304] In addition, the present embodiment differs from the first embodiment in the pitch adjustment basic table included in the printing device. Therefore, differences from the first embodiment will be particularly described below.

[0305] The printing device in this embodiment is a nail printing device as in the first embodiment, and has almost the same device configuration as in the first embodiment.

[0306] In the present embodiment, the image conversion basic table is stored in the ROM 52 of the control device 50 of the nail print apparatus as the pitch adjustment basic table.

[0307] The basic image conversion table reassigns printing pixels in the original image data so that more printing pixel group data is allocated to both ends in the width direction of the nail region Ta that is the surface to be printed than to the ce...

Abstract

A print apparatus includes a selection unit, a print unit and control unit. The selection unit categorizes a curve-shape of a print target surface into one specific shape pattern among a plurality of shape patterns having shapes whose degrees of curving are different from each other. The print unit has a recording head that applies ink on the print target surface. The control unit controls the print unit to set an ink amount to be applied at the edge parts of the print target surface to predetermined amount which is set corresponding to the specific shape pattern.

Description

[0001] The application number of the corresponding Japanese application: Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-100438, and the filing date: April 28, 2011. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a printing device and a printing control method of the printing device. In particular, it relates to a printing device for printing on a curved printing surface of an object to be printed and a printing control method thereof. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, as a printing device, an inkjet printing device that ejects ink from a recording head to perform printing on an object is known. [0004] In the case of an inkjet printing device, generally, printing is performed while moving the recording head in the horizontal direction above the object to be printed. [0005] However, sometimes the printing target surface of the printing target object is not flat, but has a curved shape with low left and right ends, high near the center, and rounded corners as ...
