Abstract:
A printing apparatus performing printing by an inkjet scheme includes: an inkjet head; and a controller, configured to control the operation of a main scan driver and a sub scan driver to perform a main scanning operation multiple times on each position on a medium. In the main scanning operation, for at least part of ejection positions serving as ejection targets of ink droplets in the main scanning operation, the controller causes the inkjet head to eject an ink droplet in accordance with a mask for selecting part of the at least part of ejection positions.

Claim (Index 3):
The printing apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein\n the inkjet head comprises a nozzle row including a plurality of nozzles arranged in the sub scanning direction, the nozzles each ejecting an ink droplet, in the nozzle row, the plurality of nozzles is arranged in a row with a constant nozzle spacing in the sub scanning direction, when ink droplets are ejected in succession in minimum cycles from one of the nozzles in the main scanning operation, the one nozzle ejects ink droplets in preset ejection cycles, and the main-scanning resolution is a resolution in which spacing between pixels adjacent in the main scanning direction is equal to an ejection cycle-corresponding spacing that is a distance corresponding to one cycle of the ejection cycles, and spacing between pixels adjacent in the sub scanning direction is equal to the nozzle spacing.
