- Control section can switch between modes depending on the coupled nozzle array.
- Cleaning sequence to discharge liquid from the first nozzle array when not in use.
Potential Applications: The technology can be used in various printing applications such as industrial printing, 3D printing, and graphic design.
Problems Solved: The technology addresses the need for efficient and flexible liquid ejecting systems in printing devices.
Benefits:
- Improved printing efficiency and flexibility.
- Reduced maintenance requirements with the cleaning sequence.
- Enhanced control over liquid ejection processes.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in commercial printing services, manufacturing industries, and prototyping businesses to enhance printing capabilities and productivity.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to liquid ejecting systems, printing technologies, and nozzle array configurations to understand the evolution of this technology.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in liquid ejecting technologies, nozzle array designs, and printing system innovations to leverage the latest developments in the field.
Questions about Liquid Ejecting Apparatus: 1. What are the potential industrial applications of this liquid ejecting apparatus? 2. How does the cleaning sequence in the control section contribute to the efficiency of the printing operation?
Original Abstract Submitted
there is provided a liquid ejecting apparatus including: a liquid ejecting head having an ejection surface provided with nozzle arrays and configured to execute a printing operation; a liquid storage section; and a control section configured to execute the printing operation, in which the nozzle arrays include a first nozzle array and a second nozzle array, when the liquid storage section is not coupled to the first nozzle array and is coupled to the second nozzle array, the control section is configured to execute a first mode in which the second nozzle array is used without using the first nozzle array for the printing operation, and when the first mode is executable, the control section executes a sequence including cleaning in which a liquid entering the first nozzle array is discharged from the first nozzle array.
