Abstract

See full text

In a printing device, the print control processor is configured to perform a print operation in a resolution in which a plurality of raster lines is arranged in a first direction by a line pitch smaller than the prescribed nozzle pitch by using a prescribed print method. The prescribed print method prints the plurality of raster lines arranged in the first direction in a prescribed order. The print control processor is configured to control a scanning portion to convey the recording sheet by a biased conveying distance as a target conveying distance. The biased conveying distance is set, depending on the prescribed print method, to be decreased or increased from a prescribed distance. The prescribed distance is an ideal value that achieves the resolution in which the plurality of raster lines is uniformly arranged in the first direction by the line pitch.
