  • Printing apparatus, control method therefor, and storage medium storing control program therefor
    Patent number: 9352584
    Abstract: A printing apparatus that is capable of obtaining density more than density that is obtained by repeating the same printing process a plurality of times without affecting resolution and tone expression. A printing unit prints an image by transferring ink to a printing sheet with a thermal head according to print data of a multiple value. A control unit controls the printing unit so as to change a maximum exothermic frequency in one dot according to a transfer frequency at the time of transferring ink of a same color a plurality of times to overlap, when an image is printed based on the print data by transferring ink of the same color the plurality of times to overlap.
    Type: Grant
