Patent ID: 8413327

Claim:
A method of manufacturing an ink jet print head comprising a first chip and a second chip provided on a supporting member, each chip including a plurality of ejection ports from which ink is ejected onto a print medium moving in a first direction, the ejection ports being arrayed at a predetermined interval in a second direction crossing the first direction, the first and second chips being arranged on a upstream side and on a downstream side, respectively, relative to the first direction so that the plurality of ejection ports in the first and second chips are consecutively arrayed in the second direction, the method comprising: a step of acquiring an amount of skew in the second direction with respect to the first direction of the print medium during moving in the first direction; a setting step of setting a distance between an ejection port in the first chip and an ejection port in the second chip based on the amount of skew, the ejection ports in the first and second chips being used to print pixels adjacent to each other in the second direction; and an arranging step of arranging the first and second chips on the supporting member according to the distance, wherein in the setting step, based on the amount of skew, the distance is set to be smaller than the predetermined interval.
