Abstract:
A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head, a dummy discharge controller, and a storage device. The liquid discharge head includes a plurality of nozzles to discharge liquid onto a continuous medium. The dummy discharge controller is configured to control the liquid discharge head to discharge dummy discharge droplets linearly in an inter-page area of the continuous medium. The storage device is configured to retain a plurality of dummy discharge patterns that differs from each other in number of droplets continuously discharged in at least one direction of a feed direction of the continuous medium and a direction perpendicular to the feed direction.
