Abstract:
An inkjet printer ejects a first ink including multiple colors and a second ink. A controller generates dot groups including an underlying layer dot group and an image dot group from ink dots of the first ink of each of the colors. The dot groups of each of the colors include all of the ink dots of the corresponding color. The controller forms a first printing layer of at least the ink dots of the underlying layer dot group of each of the colors and ink dots of the second ink. The controller forms a second printing layer of at least the ink dots of the image dot group of each of the colors.

Claim (Index 16):
A printing method by which at least a first ink of a first color, a first ink of a second color, and a second ink are ejected toward a recording medium to form, on the recording medium, at least ink dots of the first ink of the first color, ink dots of the first ink of the second color, and ink dots of the second ink, the printing method comprising:\n a first generation step of generating, upon receipt of data on the ink dots of the first ink of the first color, a plurality of first dot groups, including a first underlying layer dot group and a first image dot group, of the ink dots of the first ink of the first color; a second generation step generating, upon receipt of data on the ink dots of the first ink of the second color, a plurality of second dot groups, including a second underlying layer dot group and a second image dot group, of the ink dots of the first ink of the second color; a first printing step of forming a first printing layer, on the recording medium, of at least the ink dots of the first underlying layer dot group, the ink dots of the second underlying layer dot group and the ink dots of the second ink; and a second printing step of forming a second printing layer, above or below the first printing layer, of at least the ink dots of the first image dot group and the ink dots of the second image dot group; wherein in the first generation step, the plurality of first dot groups are generated so as to include all of the ink dots of the first ink of the first color; and in the second generation step, the plurality of second dot groups are generated so as to include all of the ink dots of the first ink of the second color.
