INKJET RECORDING DEVICE AND INKJET RECORDING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240034071 titled 'INKJET RECORDING DEVICE AND INKJET RECORDING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an inkjet recording device that consists of a conveyance unit, a carriage, multiple ink head lines, a preprocessing head, and a postprocessing head. The preprocessing head ejects a preprocessing solution, while the postprocessing head ejects a postprocessing solution. The device has a main scanning direction, and the head closest to one end in this direction is referred to as the one-end side head, while the head closest to the other end is referred to as the other-end side head. The distances between these heads and the distances between the one-end side head and the preprocessing/postprocessing heads are defined as lc, b1, and b2 respectively. The relationship (b1+b2)/lc≤3/2 must be satisfied.
- The invention is an inkjet recording device with a conveyance unit, carriage, ink head lines, preprocessing head, and postprocessing head.

Original Abstract Submitted
an inkjet recording device includes a conveyance unit, a carriage, a plurality of ink head lines, a preprocessing head, and a postprocessing head. the preprocessing head ejects a preprocessing solution. the postprocessing head ejects a postprocessing solution. in a case where a head arranged closest to one end in a main scanning direction is defined as a one-end side head, a head arranged closest to the other end is defined as an other-end side head, a distance from the one-end side head to the other-end side head in the main scanning direction is defined as lc, a distance from the one-end side head to the preprocessing head in the main scanning direction is defined as b1, and a distance from the one-end side head to the postprocessing head in the main scanning direction is defined as b2, a relationship of �≤(b1+b2)/lc≤3/2 is satisfied.
