Abstract:
1. An inkjet printer, comprising: a recording head having a nozzle to jet ink droplets; a control section to control jetting of the ink droplets from the nozzle of the recording head at predetermined driving conditions; a velocity detecting section to detect an ink droplet jetting velocity from the nozzle of the recording head; a temperature detecting section to detect a temperature of the recording head or at the recording head; a first changing section to change a driving condition to alter the ink droplet jetting velocity to a targeted velocity, based on a detected ink droplet jetting velocity; and a second changing section to change the driving condition at a time differing from a time when the first changing section changes the driving condition, to alter the ink droplet jetting velocity to the targeted velocity, based on a detected temperature.
